I have a script which runs as a cronjob once a day. I can run the script 
from the command line with no problem, however when cron runs the script 
I get the following error:

OCIEnvCreate failed: ././dco2.c:1316Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/backup/bin/pullUNSarticles.py", line 100, in ?
    dbh = DCOracle2.connect(dsn=dsn)
  File 
"/opt/python/2.2.1-update1/sparc-sunos5.8/lib/python2.2/site-packages/DCOracle2/DCOracle2.py", 
line 164, in connect
    db = dco2.connect(u, p, dbname)
dco2.DatabaseError: (-4261436, '')

I couldn't find an oracle error 4261436 and I'm guessing it's a 
configuration problem on my end. Anyone have a clue?

Thanks,
