Install ODP.NET on Windows Server 2008 to support Oracle 8.1.6 and 10g

796399Sep 9 2010 — edited Sep 13 2010
I am currently using Oracle Client 9.2.0.7.0 in Production environment with System.Data.OracleClient by Microsoft to connect Oracle 8.1.6.1.0 in Windows Server 2003 R2. So far, it works without any issues.

I have new requirement to integrate Oracle 10g as well. So, I tried to use ODP.NET 11g. However, I get this exception when I try to connect Oracle 8i:

"ORA-03134: Connections to this server version are no longer supported."

So, is there any way I can use ODP.NET to connect to both the servers [Oracle 8i and Oracle 10g]?

I have DEV environment that is Windows Server 2008 in which I tried to install ODP.NET 9.2 that failed because it cannot be installed on win2008.

Any help would be appreciated.
