I have developed a Django application, and i am trying to get it to run under IIS on Windows Server 2003. I'm generally following the Django walkthrough but my db is Oracle.

If I run python from the command prompt and import cx_Oracle, it works just fine. If I run the project with django's development server, everything works fine too. I haven't managed to get it rum on IIS6 but when a test.py is loaded by IIS and PyISAPIe, it says it cannot load cx_Oracle and displays the following error:

Error loading cx_Oracle module: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

I'm using the 32-bit versions of the following:

Python 2.6.6,
PyISAPIe 1.1.0 rc4 py2.6,
Django 1.4.3,
Oracle Client 11.2, 
cx_Oracle 5.1 (for Oracle 11g, Python 2.6)

Any thoughts on why this might be happening?

EDIT:I tried downgrading to cx_Oracle 4.4.1 and now I get the error: ImportError: cannot import name utils

Could be an issue with paths? – Rickard Zachrisson Jan 14 '13 at 14:28
@Rickard Zachrisson I downgraded to cx_Oracle 4.4.1, fixed the paths and it worked. But when I try to get it work with cx_Oracle 5.1 I still get the first error message related to the DLL. – marlen Jan 18 '13 at 08:33
