I'm trying to install the cx_Oracle for Python 2.6, but it is failing. I don't know enough about C or MS Vis. Studio's compiler to even approach fixing it myself.
This is what is output on the command line:
C:\pydev\cx_Oracle-5.0.1>C:\python26\python setup.py install

error: command '"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\BIN\cl.exe"' failed with exit status 2
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? (I also may have an issue with that cl.exe file, I think I remember seeing this as a problem somewhere else, but I have four Windows machines which could have had issue there.).
----------------------------- EDIT -----------------------------
The reason I do not use the pre-compiled installer is because when I try to run the module I get the following:
Python 2.6.3 (r263rc1:75186, Oct 2 2009, 20:40:30) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
