Huh? Why not

import cx_Oracle as dbapi?

BTW, you can import several modules on the same row by
separating them with comma. (I prefer compact programs.)

See
http://www.is.mcgill.ca/minerva/Help/ora12154.htm

for and explanation on the original error. Then you could
obviously not get the error messages. I don't remember what
used to cause this. I haven't worked with Oracle since the
spring of 1998. A missing path? Some environment variable?
Does it show error messages from the Oracle tools such as
sqlplus?
