Instantclient-odbc - odbcad32.exe problem

Hi. I have instantclient set up on my workstation (windows xp). It works fine via both sqlplus.exe and php/apache. However, I cannot get instantclient-odbc-win32-10.2.0.3-20061115 to work. When I add a dsn choosing "Oracle in instantclient_10_2 Version 10.02.00.03", I get an error popup: odbcad32.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close... Send Error Report...
The only environment variable set is ORACLE_HOME=c:\instantclient_10_2
The contents of instantclient-basic-win32-10.2.0.3-20061115, instantclient-sqlplus-win32-10.2.0.3-20061115, and instantclient-odbc-win32-10.2.0.3-20061115 are all under c:\instantclient_10_2\bin. tnsnames.ora is under C:\instantclient_10_2\network\ADMIN\tnsnames.ora.
I'd like to get this ODBC working. Has anybody dealt with this? Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Paul

I deleted the ORACLE_HOME=c:\instantclient_10_2 environment variable. I added TNS_ADMIN=C:\instantclient_10_2\network\ADMIN. Now I can create a dsn.

Hi,
One month ago in OTN there was a Link to the file
instantclient-odbc-linux-ia64-10.2.0.1-20051213.zip (26,662 bytes) (cksum -3623609500).
I found that link under http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/oci/instantclient/instantclient.html

Nov 2, 2006. I'm adding this hoping it helps someone else in the future. I asked this question to Oracle Support. Their response:
QUESTION
========
Customer is planning to upgrade from 10.2.0.1 and 10.2.0.2. Customer is running ASM ,so customer is asking do they need to apply Patch 4547817 on Database Home or to ASM home as well.
ANSWER
======
No. You dont need to apply Patch 4547817 on ASM home.You should apply Patch 4547817 on Database Home only. You dont need to apply Patch to ASM home. You are going to upgrade database from 10.2.0.1 to 10.2.0.2. Database can be on 10.2.0.1 or 10.2.0.2 but ASM cant be.

Windows 7 64bit with ODBC 11.2.0.1.0 - Exception: System.OverflowException

Hello,
Please help. I developed an interface between a CAD and Oracle 10g 32bit on Windows Server 2003. I have no problems with the using of the ODBC driver (Instant Client Package - ODBC (instantclient-odbc-win-x86-64-10.2.0.3.0.zip) on Windows XP 32bit and Windows XP 64bit.

ODBC Driver for Windows 7 - 64 bit

Hi All,
I am having problems with using the Microsoft ODBC for Oracle Driver in Windows 7 - 64bit system. I am using the following code in my VB script
Set myConnection = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
myConnection.Open "Driver={Microsoft ODBC for Oracle};" & "Server=xxxxxx;" & "Uid=xxxxx;" & "Pwd=xxxxx"
Set myRecord = CreateObject("ADODB.recordset")
Sql = "Select * from employees where id= '01234'"
myRecord.Open Sql, myConnection
For Each r In myRecord.Fields
MsgBox r.Name
Next
I get the following error message: "The Oracle (tm) client and networking components are not found. These components are supplied by Oracle Corporation and are part of the Oracle Version 7.3 (or greater) client software installation, You will be unable to use this driver until these components have been installed"
"[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLAllocHandle on SQL_HANDLE_ENV failed"
Can you help me out on which version of Oracle client i need to install and what other settings I need to do on my Windows 7 system after the client installation.

I tried installing "instantclient-basic-windows.x64-11.2.0.4.0" and "instantclient-odbc-windows.x64-11.2.0.4.0" both. I ran the odbc_install.exe in command prompt as administrator and got the message "Oracle ODBC Driver is installed successfully."
I also set the environment Variable "Path" as "C:\instantclient_11_2".
But when tried to use the above VBScript to connect to the Oracle DB, i get the same error message. I am really stuck with this for past two days.

Windows 7 with 11g ODBC install confusion...

Hi all,
Ok, I am just a little confused. All I need to do is get ODBC running under Windows 7. I figured this would be easy, but apparently not. I am trying to install Oracle 11g 64 bit on a new Win 7 computer. This is to set up a "typical" end user system and is NOT for development.
I first went to the 11g download page (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/112010-win64soft-094461.html ) and downloaded the client software (win64_11gR2_client.zip). I unzipped and installed that. I was able to run NetAdmin and edit the TNSNAMES.ora file. However, when I ran the MS ODBC manager - there were no Oracle driver options. I tried this with both the InstantClient and Runtime options.
So I figured I had missed something. I ran the deinstall and then did a system restore. I read the docs in the install and here on the forum and saw references to the instant client installs.
It told me to download the Basic Instant Client and ODBC Instant Client packages from the Oracle Technology Network Instant Client page, so I went to link http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/winx64soft-089540.html and downloaded both the instant client (instantclient-basic-win-x86-64-11.2.0.1.0.zip) and the ODBC module (instantclient-odbc-win-x86-64-11.2.0.1.0.zip)
I unzipped the client-basic first per the odbc docs. No docs, just a readme with no details. And nothing named install. I did see two .exe files (adrci.exe and genezi.exe) but netiher was a clear install package. Nor was there a .msi package. So, in reading the docs, I tried to determine if "deployed" meant unzipped or installed. So I unzipped the instant ODBC files into the instantclient_11_2 folder and ran the ODBC_install. There was no reference to NETADMIN in the startfolder, but there was an ODBC shortcut - which I ran. It showed the ODBC drivers, but when I got to the TNS Service Name and clicked on the "down arrow", all I saw were what appeared to be garbage entries. There was no TNSNAMES.ora file to be found.
Ok, so now I reinstalled the initial download and then tried to add the ODBC stuff to that.... No luck.
I Ran the universal installer and tried to get it to load the ODBC stuff - but there were no .xml files (which is what it apparently wants) to load. And when I tried to install the instant ODBC, the universal installer still didn't appear to see ODBC stuff...
So I can install the first and be able to edit TNSNAMES.ORA. Or install the second and see an ODBC driver - but not configure it because I can't reference a TNSNAMES.ora file. Or do both and just get frustrated because both installs IGNORE the other....
Oh, if I run the NetAdmin and create a TNSNAMES entry - when I test it, it can connect to the server. But I just can't get the ODBC Oracle driver to find that file.....
IAC, what do I need to download (just the minimum oracle 11g) to an end user's win 7 x64 computer so that I can configure the TNSNAMES.ora settings and setup the ODBC connection?
Anyway, I am sure there is an easy answer to this. And I would be happy to mark your response as an answer so you get the credit you deserve for helping me.
And it would be even nicer if there was a little more support about ODBC in the docs that come with both the standard client and the instant client installs.
Thanks,
JustMe

Greg,
RE: Instant client.
1) It did not come with a TNSNAMES.ora file nor was it clear where I would place the one I have so it would work.
2) I did try enter a valid entry, but it would not work (my guess is that I didn't copy the TNSNAMES.ora to the right folder).
RE: Standard install:
1) It installed the TNSNAMES.ora file and apps to manage it. I was even able to test and confirm that it worked. But when I ran the MS ODBC manager, there were no references to the ORACLE drivers, so I couldn't create one to reference the TNSNAMES.ora file I had created.
You have given me a few ideas and I will try some of them (running the standard install option in custom mode, copying the TNSNAMES.ora file to every folder in the instant client install, using just the 32 bit versions, etc.) If any of those work, I will report back. If you have any idea on how to resolve the above issues, I would certainly appreciate it as well.
Thanks,

Oracle 10g ODBC driver with Windows 7 32 bit connecting to Excel

Hi Everyone,
I'm having an issue connecting to our oracle 10g database (64 bit system) from a 32 bit windows 7 installation running excel 2010/2007 using odbc drivers. Our excel spreadsheets worked without issue in windows xp.
In windows 7 I have been able to install the odbc driver via the following method:
1. Download the oracle 'basic' client and oracle 'odbc' client from www.oracle.com and extract the contents:
instantclient-basic-win32-10.2.0.3-20061115
instantclient-odbc-win32-10.2.0.3-20061115
2. Create a folder 'oracle' and place the instantclient_10_2 folder inside.
3. Ensure all the basic and odbc files reside in this folder.
4. Create a 'network' folder within instantclient_10_2
5. Create an 'admin' folder within 'network'
6. Create sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora files within the 'admin' folder:
7. Run 'obdc_install' within the instantclient_10_2 folder
8. Download and run the oracle odbc driver exe file from www.oracle.com (ORA10203.exe)
9. Go to Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Data Sources and create a new System DN
This allows excel spreadsheets connecting ONLY to oracle to function.
Unfortunately some of our spreadsheets connect to both a MySQL database as well as oracle. Spreadsheets connecting only to MySQL also function correctly, however, as soon as the vb associated with a spreadsheet includes a mysql call followed by an oracle call the spreadsheets fail. In Excel 2007 excel crashes completely everytime. In Excel 2010 the mysql data is generated, then when the script hits to oracle odbc connection there is a long pause, the oracle ODBC driver connect pops up requesting a username/password (this didn't happen in xp), then the data source selection pops up, then the username/password connect screen pops up again, and finally it fails with a runtime error '1004' General ODBC error.
If you look at the VB script it's failing at the Refresh BackgroundQuery statement in the ODBC connection block:
With Worksheets("Oracle1").QueryTables.Add(Connection:= _
"ODBC;DSN=Oracle_ODBC;UID=user;PWD=password;SERVER=ORACLE_LINUX;", _
Destination:=Worksheets("Oracle1").Range("A1"))
.CommandText = strSql
.Name = "Oracle1_data"
.FieldNames = True
.RowNumbers = False
.FillAdjacentFormulas = False
.PreserveFormatting = True
.RefreshOnFileOpen = False
.BackgroundQuery = True
.RefreshStyle = xlOverwriteCells
.SavePassword = True
.SaveData = True
.AdjustColumnWidth = True
.RefreshPeriod = 0
.PreserveColumnInfo = True
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
End With
Does anyone know how to get around this? It's very important!!
Also if you try to edit the oracle ODBC connections in Control Panels -> Administrative Tools -> Data Sources, ODBC crashes 95% of the time.
Advice greatly appreciated!!

Well, here's what I'd check anyway..
1) get Process Explorer from http://sysinternals.com
2) make a mysql connection, get a list of dll's loaded (include the location and version columns in the lower pane output)
3) close that, then make an ora odbc connection, get a list of dlls.
4) close that, then make a mysql connection followed by an ora odbc connection, get a list of dlls
5) compare the lists of loaded dlls. In particular, the difference between #3 and #4, is there a dll dependency that gets loaded by oracle's odbc that comes from a different location when you've opened a mysql connection first?
May or may not help, but might turn up a difference to help point you in a direction.

First, make sure you can connect through your sqlplus regular client, and make sure your instance, and listener are properly configured, up and running. Issue the next commands:
lsnrctl services
tnsping yourTNSAlias
sqlplus username/password@TNSAlias
Next, on your connect string I don't see your dbname alias configured, is it correct?
Example:
DSN=ora9;UID=scott;PWD=tiger;DATABASE=ora9u
The datbase name is missing on your connect string:
DSN=Oracle;UID=craig;PWD=<removed>
Is your alias configured at your tnsnames.ora file?

ODBC Install - Windows 7

Oracle Version: Oracle Database 11g Express Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
Windows Version: Windows 7 (64-bit)
ODCB Instant Client 11.2
1) Unzipped files to directory: P:\Oracle_11G\instantclient-odbc-windows.x64-11.2.0.3.0\instantclient_11_2
2) Ran odbc_install.exe
3) Altered path to contain:
OraODBC --> P:\Oracle_11G\instantclient-odbc-windows.x64-11.2.0.3.0\instantclient_11_2
Now when I run ODBC Manager, it does not list the driver.
Have I missed something?

ODBC on Linux: libsqora.so.10.1: undefined symbol: _tcsnccmp

I try to access an Oracle database via iODBC from openSUSE Linux 10.3.
I have installed the following packages from the Oracle web page:
oracle-instantclient-basic-10.2.0.4-1.i386.rpm
oracle-instantclient-devel-10.2.0.4-1.i386.rpm
oracle-instantclient-odbc-10.2.0.4-1.i386.rpm
oracle-instantclient-sqlplus-10.2.0.4-1.i386.rpm
and I have installed from iodbc.org
libiodbc-3.52.6-1.i386.rpm
libiodbc-admin-3.52.6-1.i386.rpm
libiodbc-devel-3.52.6-1.i386.rpm
After a bit of configuration I called:
$ iodbctest NMR2
iODBC Demonstration program
This program shows an interactive SQL processor
Driver Manager: 03.52.0607.1008

2: SQLDriverConnect = [iODBC][Driver Manager]Specified driver could not be loaded (0) SQLSTATE=IM003
What is _tcsnccmp and where can I get it from?
Googling around leads me to a prototype
int tcsnccmp(const TXCHAR* string1, const TXCHAR* string2, sizet count);
and it seems that it is a localised string comparison routine. I found it in Windows and
WINE documentations - do I have to install WINE in order to use Oracle ODBC?

not sure whether installing WINE will help, try with 11.1.0.6.0 version of instant client libraries.

Visual Studio 2010 64bit cann't connect Oracle database through 64bit ODBC Driver

Hi,
I am developing an 64bit And-In software. My OS is windows7 64bit Ultimate. Developer tool is
Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate 64bit any-CUP.
Server is SUN server and Oracle database 10.2.0.5 64bit enterprise edition.
I have installed instantclient-odbc-win64-10.2.0.5 on my computer.
I am able to connect through the command line sqlplus user/pass@server.
In date source(c:\windows\system32\odbcad32.exe), ODBC Driver connection successful.
But in VS2010 C#, use Tools -> Connect Database,I get an error 193 (Oracle in
instantclient10_2,c:\ora10_64\SQORA32.dll) cann't be loaded.
SQORA32.dll is 32bit ODBC Driver or 64bit ODBC Driver?
How can I connect database with vs2010 64bit?
Regards

There is no Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate 64bit as far as I know. It's a 32 bit app. Generally you'd need to install a 32 bit client to use the 32 bit tools.
Hope it helps,
Greg

Oracle in instantclient_11_2 ODBC driver error 14001

Hi there,
I've tried to set up an Oracle ODBC Instant Client driver and I get this error:

Hi,
I had exactly the same problem with a comparable system configuration, but with the x86-64 packages (you tried to use the 32bit instant client due to the file names you mentioned).
Somewhere in the depths of the WWW I got the hint that the solution is to use the instant client V 11.2.0.1.0.
So I downloaded the older version and everything worked fine...
Also rememeber to set the TNS_ADMIN environment variable to the path of your "instantclient_11_2" directory and edit a tnsnames.ora file in that directory or else you won't be able to open a connection...
Good luck and best regards

Odbc linux driver & unixODBC

Dear all,
I'm trying to use the linux32 odbc driver provided with the instant client. I follow the instructions provided, ODBC_IC_Readme_Linux.html:
1) I unzip instantclient-basic-linux32*zip, instantclient-odbc-linux32*.zip
2) I run odbc_install.sh
3) I add to LD_LIBRARY_PATH the directory where libsqora.so.10.1 is
I don't understand what I have to do thereafter... I should set the TNS_ADMIN variable, but in the instant client installation there is no tnsnames.ora file.
Indeed if I try to connect to the DB with the unixODBC utility isql, I get the error:
[S1000][unixODBC][Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-12162: TNS:net service name is incorrectly specified
[ISQL]ERROR: Could not SQLConnect
Any suggestion?
Thanks a lot!
Cheers,
Andrea Parenti

I found the solution to the puzzle.
The "TWO_TASK" environment variable had to be
defined, and to be equal to the connectidentifier
defined in the tnsnames.ora file.
Hope it can help somebody else.
Cheers,
AndreaTHANK YOU! I was having the same problem, and your
solution fixed it.
Where the heck did TWO_TASK come from??? Where did
you find the documentation on that? I searched for
information, but there was no definitive webpage
defining its use.Hi,
indeed I didn't find the description of TWO_TASK in Oracle documentation, but on the web (mainly searching with google), after many unsuccessful attempts.
Some explanation about the TWO_TASK variable is in the Ask Tom website, http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:89412348059

ODBC Driver installed, but not available

Hello,
i have installed 32bit ODBC Instant Client (instantclient-odbc-nt-11.2.0.4.0) on a Windows 7 64bit system. Installation suceeds without any errors,
but the Driver is not available as a ODBC Datasource (odbcad32). Path to Instant Client is set in the Environment Variable.
Best regards,
Torsten

Hi Torsten
instantclient-odbc-nt-11.2.0.4.0 is 32-bit driver it will be available in c:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe
Note: The names are in reverse i.e. for 32 bit odbc, you search in SysWOW64 and for 64 bit you search in System32. This is as designed by Microsoft.

Windows 7 - ODBC for Office 2010 64 bit - MS ODBC Driver for Oracle

I am trying to link a table from an oracle rac 10.2.0.4 64 bit install.
I have windows 7 with the oracle 64 bit client.
in odbc i can create a datasource using the oracle driver
and when i try to link a table i get an error :
Reserved error (-7732); there is no message for this error.
I would like to use the Microsoft ODBC for Oracle Driver but it doesnt exist on my computer.
the old one on windows xp used file MSORCL32.DLL is there a MSORCL64.DLL now?
Anyone have any help?

Jam The Man's solution worked for me.

Here's the solution.
My operating system is Windows 7 64-bit, using Office 2010 64-bit. Trying to connect to an ODBC data source through Excel. The data source is an Oracle9i 32-bit database on a Windows Server 2003 32-bit server. However, the database version or server operating system is arbitrary; it could be an 8i, 9i, 10g, or even an 11g 32-bit or 64-bit database on a UNIX or Windows server. If you're using Windows 7 64-bit and you want to connect to an ODBC data source through Excel to an Oracle database, you must use Office 2010 64-bit. You cannot use Office 2003 or 2007, for example.
Follow these steps on your Windows 7 64-bit PC to connect to your ODBC data source.
1. Through Oracle's web site, go to Instant Client Downloads for Microsoft Windows (x64). Currently, the address to that page is:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/oci/instantclient/htdocs/winx64soft.html
2. Download the two following files, found under the version 11.1.0.7.0 heading:
Instant Client Package - Basic (instantclient-basic-win-x86-64-11.1.0.7.0.zip)
Instant Client Package - ODBC (instantclient-odbc-win-x86-64-11.1.0.7.0.zip)
3. Extract both zip files to the same directory (such as c:\oracle\instantclient_11_1).
4. Launch the Command Prompt (DOS command window) by running it as administrator. Go to Start > All Programs > Accessories, then right click Command Prompt and select Run as Administrator.
5. From within the Command Prompt, navigate to c:\oracle\instantclient_11_1, and run odbc_install.exe. You should receive a message saying Oracle ODBC Driver is installed successfully. The name of the new ODBC driver that was just installed is Oracle in instantclient11_1 -- use this driver when creating your ODBC connection.
6. Create a new system environment variable. Set the value of the variable name as TNS_ADMIN, and the value of the variable path as the directory that contains the tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora files. On my PC, I have another Oracle client already installed which has its own tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora files. Therefore, I set the value of variable path as c:\orant\net80\admin (the directory that contains my tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora files). If you don't have another Oracle client installed on your PC, create a new directory such as c:\oracle\instantclient_11_1\network\admin, and place the tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora files in that directory. Then, set c:\oracle\instantclient_11_1\network\admin as the value for the variable path.
7. To create the ODBC connection, go Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Data Sources (ODBC). Alternatively, you can create the connection right from within Excel.
Thanks man it worked for me.
My host environment is windows 7 x64 ultimate and I have my oracle 10g in centos installed in VMware.
Previously I had vista home premium x64 there instantclient 10.2 basic and odbc worked but in windows 7 it wasn't working.
Thanks again.
