Unable to manually install oracledb using the zip package #260

Closed amiitt closed 7 months ago

I have downloaded the zip package for oracledb (version 1.4.2). When I try to install it manually on my Windows 11 machine using python setup.py install, I am getting the following error:

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'src/oracledb/impl/thick/odpi/src'

On investigating the issue, I found that the mentioned directory is completely empty!
