Unable to Load DLL (oci.dll)
433709Nov 29 2004 — edited Dec 1 2004I am trying to connect to Oracle 10g database using Visual Studio.Net 2003, System.Data.OracleClient namespace. I have created a Web service running on my workstation's local web server, that uses a connection to an Oracle database (my connctionString="Data Source=orcl;User Id=myid;Password=pswd" ). While the program trying to execute myConnection.Open() - it is receiving the error "Unable to load dll (oci.dll)". I have installed the Oracle client on a development (WinXPPro) workstation, so the client BIN directory is visible, production server is running Oracle 10g on Windows 2003.
Is it some kind of connection string issue or user permission problem? How do I setup the right ones?
Thanks for the help in advance!!
