I have a system with python 3.6 and I also alt installed 3.9.
I am using ibm_db and ibm-db_dbi packages and when I connect to DB using python3.6 connection works fine. But when I connect using python 3.9 it fails with:
>>> ibm_db.connect(dsn2, "","")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
Exception: [IBM][CLI Driver] SQL1032N No start database manager command was issued. SQLSTATE=57019 SQLCODE=-1032
Even with ibm_db_dbi I get the same error. I verified the ssl certs and they are being picked up correctly.
dsn2 = 'DATABASE=MYDB;UID=db2inst1;PWD=XXXXXXXX;PORT=50001;PROTOCOL=SSL;HOSTNAME=myhost;SSLClientKeyStoreDB=/usr/local/python3.9/lib/python3.9/site-packages/component/rest/data/ssl'
No errors in diag logs. Any pointers to why is the connection not working? Is it looking for something in python3.6 which is missing in 3.9?
I have made an alt install of python3.9. So both 3.6 and 3.9 co exist. and I open python interpreter of different versions to run the command. OS is Centos. If I remove SSL from dsn connection works fine on 3.9 as well.
I tried connecting to oracle using cx_oracle in python but getting an error.
Tried this:
I even formatted my machine and updated java version.

We have an oracle database and i am trying to connect to oracle database using python in linux. We have installed "sqlalchemy" , "cx_Oracle" libraries.
When i try to execute the below python script, i am getting below error.
Error: sqlalchemy.exc.DatabaseError: (cx_Oracle.DatabaseError) DPI-1047:
Cannot locate a 64-bit Oracle Client library: "libclntsh.so: cannot open
shared object file: No such file or directory". See
https://oracle.github.io/odpi/doc/installation.html#linux for help
(Background on this error at: http://sqlalche.me/e/4xp6)
Is there any way without installing "Instant Client" , i can connect to oracle database and execute .... ?
Please help me with any suggestion
Below is the code.
import sqlalchemy
from sqlalchemy import types,create_engine
conn = create_engine('oracle://User:password#hostname:1521/?service_name=ABCD')
cur = conn
ABC = []
select = cur.execute("select EMPLOYEE_ID,EMPLOYEE_NAME from EMPLOYEE")
for line in select:
ABC.append(line)
print(ABC)
I installed the library and when trying to access SQL in jupyter notebook with my credentials the following error appears:
DatabaseError: DPI-1047: Cannot locate a 64-bit Oracle Client library: "The specified module could not be found". See https://oracle.github.io/odpi/doc/installation.html#windows for help
The easiest solution is as follows:
Download 64-bit version of oracle instantClient from: https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/instant-client/winx64-64-downloads.html
Copy the dll files in the instantclient directory to the python directory, as shown below
That is it!
The short answer is: cx_Oracle.init_oracle_client(lib_dir= r"c:\path_to_libraries")
Here are the steps that I followed to solve this same issue:
If you have not already installed cx_Oracle you can do so with the following command:
python -m pip install cx_Oracle --upgrade
The cx_Oracle documentation can be found here.
Use the following commands to verify that everything is installed and recognized:
import sqlalchemy as sqla
import pandas as pd
import cx_Oracle
# Test to see if it will print the version of sqlalchemy
print(sqla.__version__) # this returns 1.2.15 for me
# Test to see if the cx_Oracle is recognized
print(cx_Oracle.version) # this returns 8.0.1 for me
# This fails for me at this point but will succeed after the solution described below
cx_Oracle.clientversion()
At this point I get errors saying the libraries cannot be located. Here is the solution:
import os
import platform
# This is the path to the ORACLE client files
lib_dir = r"C:\put_your_path_here\instantclient-basic-windows.x64- 19.9.0.0.0dbru\instantclient_19_9"
# Diagnostic output to verify 64 bit arch and list files
print("ARCH:", platform.architecture())
print("FILES AT lib_dir:")
for name in os.listdir(lib_dir):
print(name)
Be sure to update the lib_dir path specific to your installation. If you have the correct path, you should see a listing of all the Oracle files like: (adrci.exe, oci.dll, oci.sym, etc). This is the location that Python needs to be able to find the Oracle drivers.
The current (Nov 2020) standard way for passing the location of the Oracle libraries for Windows is cx_Oracle.init_oracle_client(lib_dir= r"c:\path_to_libraries"). Here is an example:
lib_dir = r"C:\put_your_path_here\instantclient-basic-windows.x64- 19.9.0.0.0dbru\instantclient_19_9"
try:
cx_Oracle.init_oracle_client(lib_dir=lib_dir)
except Exception as err:
print("Error connecting: cx_Oracle.init_oracle_client()")
print(err);
sys.exit(1);
At this point I can run the following code without any errors:
# This works after passing the lib_dir path
cx_Oracle.clientversion() # For me it returns: (19, 9, 0, 0, 0)
DEPRECATED Here is how to update the PATH variable temporarily:
The following works, but using cx_Oracle.init_oracle_client(lib_dir= r"c:\path_to_libraries") is now the preferred way.
import os
# Manually append the location of the ORACLE libraries to the PATH variable
os.environ["PATH"] = lib_dir + ";" + os.environ["PATH"]
As per documentation accessed on cx_Oracle page.
Step 1: install cx_Oracle
python -m pip install cx_Oracle --upgrade
Step 2: Download and extract Oracle Basic Client
For Windows download and extract Oracle Basic Instatnt client instantclient-basic-windows.x64-19.9.0.0.0dbru.zip file.
Step 3: Inform cx_Oracle module about the Instatnt Client location.
If you stick to documentation and extract them in c:\oracle folder then your script may look like this.
import cx_Oracle
cx_Oracle.init_oracle_client(lib_dir=r"C:\oracle\instantclient_19_9")
Now you will be free from the error.
I faced this error in Anconda Spyder.
This is how I fixed it.
Get the basic package instantClient from: https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/instant-client/winx64-64-downloads.html
Extract and copy all the *.dll files and paste it to Anaconda3 folder where you have python.exe.
For MAC
After you do : python -m pip install cx_Oracle --upgrade
try:
import cx_Oracle
# Test to see if the cx_Oracle is recognized
print(cx_Oracle.version) # this returns 8.0.1 for me
# This fails for me at this point but will succeed after the solution described below
cx_Oracle.clientversion()
if you encounter issues like :
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
cx_Oracle.DatabaseError: DPI-1047: Cannot locate a 64-bit Oracle Client library: "dlopen(libclntsh.dylib, 1): image not found". See https://cx-oracle.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user_guide/installation.html for help
Follow the step highlighted here: https://cx-oracle.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user_guide/installation.html#manual-installation
Manual Installation
Download the Basic 64-bit DMG from Oracle.
(https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/instant-client/macos-intel-x86-downloads.html)
Mount the dng
Open the mounted dng, and run ./install_ic.sh (via terminal)
e.g. : cd /Volumes/instantclient-basic-macos.x64-19.8.0.0.0dbru/ && ./install_ic.sh
In Finder, eject the mounted Instant Client package.
Re-run the oracle connection.
import cx_Oracle
cx_Oracle.init_oracle_client(lib_dir="/Users/priyank.pathak/Downloads/instantclient_19_8")
## cx_Oracle.init_oracle_client(lib_dir="/Users/your_username/Downloads/instantclient_19_8")
cx_Oracle.clientversion()
Make sure you have installed the correct oracle client (you can find the oracle client package from here "https://www.oracle.com/in/database/technologies/instant-client/winx64-64-downloads.html" and add the downloaded folder inside the folder where python is installed and then add this location (location of your client package folder) to system's environment variable.
Hope that will work.
I suggest you to first check the compatibility of your OS, Python and Oracle Instant Client architecture:
import platform
platform.architecture()
Then, I definitely advise you to set the Oracle Instant Client inside your jupyter notebook:
import os
os.environ["PATH"] = "Complete Location of Instant Client Folder" + ";" + os.environ["PATH"]
Probably you have installed cx_Oracle Python library. In order to execute the DB connectivity through jupyter notebook, you need to install the Oracle Client and that is what missing in your scenario. Please follow the steps from below link and and install Oracle Client and this will solve your problem:
https://oracle.github.io/odpi/doc/installation.html#windows
I went into the same problem but on Arch Linux, running in NodeJS.
Some of the answers here helped me in searching for the official installation guide.
Then I followed these steps and they worked for me:

Download Instant Client Basic Light Package (ZIP) (Linux)
https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/instant-client/linux-x86-64-downloads.html
Create folder and unzip into it
mkdir /opt/oracle
unzip ~/Downloads/instantclient-basiclite-linux.x64-21.4.0.0.0dbru.zip -d /opt/oracle/
Then, according to the docs, execute these commands below:
If there is no other Oracle software on the machine that will be impacted, then permanently add Instant Client to the run-time link path. For example, if the Basic package unzipped to /opt/oracle/instantclient_19_11, then run the following using sudo or as the root user
sudo sh -c "echo /opt/oracle/instantclient_19_11 > /etc/ld.so.conf.d/oracle-instantclient.conf"
sudo ldconfig
OR
Alternatively, every shell running Node.js will need to have the link path set:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/oracle/instantclient_19_11:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
This might help someone:
I also had the same error and I read through the installation documentation https://cx-oracle.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user_guide/installation.html (I was using a zip for installation so I focused on section: Oracle Instant Client Zip Files)
And I was missing a "yum install -y libaio" (used 'centos:7' base image) after unzipping the oracle client to /opt/oracle and also added the following envs:
ENV ORACLE_HOME /opt/oracle/instantclient_19_3
ENV DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH /opt/oracle/instantclient_19_3
ENV LD_LIBRARY_PATH /opt/oracle/instantclient_19_3
ENV TNS_ADMIN /opt/oracle/instantclient_19_3
I just installed Sql Developer from Oracle and ran it for the first time, and the install added what was needed and I was able to get through that error. This was on windows. Install below, just extract it when it installs and run the .exe in the main folder. Much simpler than the other solutions!
https://www.oracle.com/database/sqldeveloper/technologies/download/
You just need to put the Oracle Instant Client folder in your PATH environment variable. Remember to restart whatever application that needs the instant client after updating the PATH variable.
If you installed the instant client at: c:\oracle\instantclient_21_8, simply put this folder in your PATH environment variable.
Copying the instant client files to Python folder is a very bad idea, since if you have other python versions installed in the future you will have to remember duplicating de instant client files. If you upgrade the instant client, you will need to keep these duplicated files updated too.
I've been connecting to a MSSQL SERVER 2008 database using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio graphic interface, as depicted in this screenshot
I would like to connect to this database using a python script. I installed pymssql and I've failed to connect to the database. I tried the following command:
import _mssql
conn = _mssql.connect(server="POLIVEIRA-PC\\MSSQLSERVER2008", user="POliveira-PC\\POliveira", password="my_password", database="database_name")
with and without the user and password flags. I always end up with this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File "_mssql.pyx", line 1887, in _mssql.connect (_mssql.c:20477)
File "_mssql.pyx", line 632, in _mssql.MSSQLConnection.init (_mssql.c:6169)
_mssql.MSSQLDriverException: Connection to the database failed for an unknown reason.
Can you help me connect to this database using Python (either using pymssql module or not). I'm not experienced with Python, nor do I with SQL, therefore I would like to do it in the simplest manner possible.
I'm running Windows 7 64 bit. Pyhton v2.7.9
I recommend you to use pyodbc, if you're using anaconda, use the 3.0.10 version of pyodbc, example:
import pyodbc
from urllib.parse import quote_plus
params = quote_plus("DRIVER={SQL Server};SERVER=POLIVEIRA-PC\\MSSQLSERVER2008;DATABASE=dbname;UID=userid;PWD=password")
try: cnxn = create_engine("mssql+pyodbc:///?odbc_connect=%s" % params)
except Exception as e:
raise SystemExit('Error: Conexion Base de Datos SQL %s' % e)
And if the problem is a remote connection in this links they talk about it
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/walzenbach/2010/04/14/how-to-enable-remote-connections-in-sql-server-2008/
http://akawn.com/blog/2012/01/configuring-sql-server-2008-r2-express-edition-for-remote-access/
Hope this works
You need to create a login with SQL Server authentication and then connect with this user:
(you'll need to connect this login to a user etc., but that's unrelated to logging in), then use
import pymssql
pymssql.connect(host=r"POLIVEIRA-PC\MSSQLSERVER2008", user='logintest', password='secret', database='database_name')
don't use the _mssql module directly.
