[gdal-dev] Opening an oracle datasource

[Sparks, Witt]

Hello,

I'm attempting to use an Oracale database as an OGR datasource with feature server. I've specified my dns as "OCI:user/password at db_instance"

When this string gets passed to _gdal.OGROpen (line 127 of my copy of ogr.py), I receive the following error:

An error occurred: Unable to open: OCI:user/password at db_instance
  File "/usr/lib/cgi-bin/fserv/FeatureServer/Server.py", line 247, in cgiHandler
    service = Server.load(*cfgfiles)
  File "/usr/lib/cgi-bin/fserv/FeatureServer/Server.py", line 69, in _load
    config, section, 'DataSource')
  File "/usr/lib/cgi-bin/fserv/FeatureServer/Server.py", line 49, in _loadFromSection
    return objclass(section, **objargs)
  File "/usr/lib/cgi-bin/fserv/FeatureServer/DataSource/OGR.py", line 53, in __init__
    self.ds     = ogr.Open( dsn, int(writable) )
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ogr.py", line 127, in Open
    raise OGRError, 'Unable to open: ' + filename

I can run ogrinfo from the command line, passing the same datasource name as above, successfully.

Thanks for any assistance.
