Anaconda下的CX_Oracle for python未安装

Question

Anaconda keeps telling me that cx_oracle needs python 3.4.

My conda version is 4.3.17

This is after I used the cx_Oracle-5.3-11g.win-amd64-py3.5-2.exe installer. which is supposed to be used for Python 3.5.

conda install -c anaconda cx_oracle=5.2
Fetching package metadata ...............
Solving package specifications: .
UnsatisfiableError: The following specifications were found to be in conflict:
- cx_oracle 5.2* -> python 3.4*
- python 3.5*
Use "conda info <package>" to see the dependencies for each package.

I'm doing something stupid, but I'm not sure what. yet. ideas? hints?

Answer 1

The error's telling you that the cx_oracle package you're trying to install depends on Python 3.4 b/c that's the currently available build of cx_oracle on the anaconda channel.

If you search for cx_oracle on anaconda.org, you'll see a list of available builds on several other channels, and can look for one that meets your reqs (namely v5.2, Python 3.5, win64). Doesn't look like there's one that meets that exact set of reqs, but there are a few v5.21 & v5.3 builds available. If that's close enough, then installing from say, the amodig channel may get you going: conda install -c amodig cx_oracle=5.2.1
