RuntimeError: Unable to acquire Oracle environment handle

1 New Member
I have python version 2.5.1 and cx_Oracle version 4.3.1.
Oracle is also in running state.
I am getting an error while trying to connect to Oracle DB which is installed in my system from python.

>>> import cx_Oracle
>>> cx_Oracle.Conne ction('scott/tiger@orcl')

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#3 >", line 1, in <module>
cx_Oracle.Conne ction('scott/tiger@orcl')
RuntimeError: Unable to acquire Oracle environment handle

Anyone can help me to solve this problem please?

Thanks in advance.
