vlad_n Report post Posted February 26, 2015 Hi, I install Oracle Instant client 10.2 32bit and 64bit on Sharepoint server. But when I try to connect to Oracle database, this is error: "For System.Data.OracleClient requires client software to Oracle version 8.1.7 or later". What I need to install to connect to Oracle database? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vlad_n Report post Posted February 27, 2015 (edited) I tried connect to Oracle after restarting server, but error is still present. Before reboot I give "Aithenticated Users" account Read & Execute permission like described on this URL: http://moustafa-arafa.blogspot.com/2007/04/systemdataoracleclient-requires-oracle.html Edited February 27, 2015 by vlad_n Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rahul Kumar Report post Posted February 27, 2015 Hi, I don't know how to work with Oracle instant client as there are no any installable etc. But with normal client you can configure it easily. You can download the client from: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/database12c-win64-download-2297732.html and download Oracle Database Client (12.1.0.2.0) for Microsoft Windows (x64) or Oracle Database Client (12.1.0.2.0) for Microsoft Windows (32-bit) depending on your server bitness. Then run the Setup and choose Custom then select the options shown in the attached image. Once installation is done, restart the server and try to connect to your Oracle DB. Hope this will solve the issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
