On a related DCOracle note...

I am having problems Connecting to a database using DCOracle from a
Python CGI script.  I get the following error in my httpd logs:

OCI_ERROR at oci_8.c:275
Error while trying to retrieve text for error ORA-12545

A code snippet follows:

    try:
        db = DCOracle.Connect('oracleuser/oraclepassword')
        return HTMLgen.Paragraph('Connected to DB.')
    except:  
        return HTMLgen.Paragraph('Connection to DB DENIED!')

Peculiar thing follows:

Script works from command line (ie, connects to OracleDB no problem). 
But not via browser... hmmm.  Is there some permissions problem I'm
missing?

Thanks,

joe
