cx_Oracle: distutils.errors.DistutilsSetupError: cannot locate Oracle include files
When you run setup.py it will check for any of these folders on your ORACLE_HOME.
possibleIncludeDirs = ["rdbms/demo", "rdbms/public", "network/public", "sdk/include"]Also the instant client sometimes places the include files, such as oci.h, in /usr/include/oracle//client, if there is no 'include' directory under ORACLE_HOME create a symbolic link to it.
sudo ln -s /usr/include/oracle/11.2/client $ORACLE_HOME/includeLooks like you're missing the Client SDK
Make sure you install the instant client sdk for you OS.
