ODP.NET

OS: Windows Win 7 -64 bit

I installed 32 bit client with Oracle Developer Tool, then I installed 64 bit driver.

1. Migrate EF5 to EF6 in Nuget.

2. Add Oracle.DataAccess and Oracle.DataAccess.EntityFramework.

3. Add provider to app.config both in application assembly and EF object assembly

<provider invariantName="Oracle.DataAccess.Client" type="Oracle.DataAccess.EntityFramework.EFOracleProviderServices,

            Oracle.DataAccess.EntityFramework,Version=6.121.2.0,

            Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89b483f429c47342" />

4. Compiled project successfully and application runs well(I don't know whether it implements EF6 successfully or not).

5. Add new table to existing model and save edmx file, issues says:

No EF provider found for the provider with invariant name 'Oracle.DataAccess.Client'. Make sure provider is registered in the 'entityFramework' section of application config file.

I double checked config file, it's there:

<configSections>
