Unable to Load DLL (oci.dll)

I 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!!

Hi Justin,
Thanks for your response.
Yes, I can connect to the database using both Aqua Data Studio or SQL *Plus. I even can connect to the database from Visual Studio utilizing Data Link Properties utility via OLE DB drivers either from Microsoft or Oracle. The credantials I am providing in the last case are the same as I use in my connection string: data source name (tnsname) - orcl, user id and password...

  • Unable to load the support DLL (webaccess setup)

    Hi,
    I'm installing GW8 SP2 HP3. So far I've installed the domain, PO and GWIA. They work just fine. Now I'm trying to install the WebAccess agent. When I run the setup I receive the following error message:
    Unable to load the support DLL:
    C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Temp\2\{ad3aed10-0f09-11d3-93d8-0008c7392dd7}\WAZAGB32.DLL
    When I go to that temp location, the files are all there, including the above mentioned DLL. In my forum searches I found similar messages, but they were all caused by a missing Novell Client. I have the Novell Client 2 SP1 installed. I even installed the latest IR9 update to see if that helped.
    I installed the previous hotpatch just fine (GW8SP2HP2). When I try to run the old hotpatch webaccess installer, it fails with the same error. So obviously something changed between the time I installed the previous and this hotpatch on my system. I just can't figure out what.
    Does anyone have an idea as to what might be causing this error?
    I'm running on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

  • Unable to load gpib-32.dll when running the visual basic 2008 program

    I installed NI-488.2 into my PC, window 7 64 bit OS.
    In the program >> project> add reference>.NET, I successfully add the NI.4882  into my visual basic  program.
    By the way, this program worked well in another window 7 32 bit PC.
    But when I run the program at ildev(BDINDEX,.........), error comes up as "unable load DLL gpib-32.dll".
    So when I looked at c:\windows\system32, I can not fine gpib-32.dll.
    Doesn't  NI-488.2 driver install gpib-32.dll?
    How can I install gpib-32.dll?

    Nyc, thank you for your reply.
    By the way, I think I did all the link explained.
    So I have no problem in  adding  NI488.2 to my program's reference using "add reference".
    The problem is GPIB statement like ildev() looks for "gpib-32.dll".
    But there was no gpib-32.dll installed in "c:\windows\system32" so error comes up with "unable to load gpib-32.dll".
    I did the same procedure in my another PC(window 7 32 bit OS,my current PC is window 7 64 bit OS), and in that PC I can see the gpib-32.dll in that directory and program run without problem.
    I do not know how gpib-32.dll was installed in my previous PC.
    Thanks

    Have you looked at the example programs for .NET that install with NI-488.2?

  • Cannot find NT Oracle Server DLL OCI.DLL

    Hello
    I am getting the following error when trying to execute a DS job from Designer in the error log.
    "Cannot find NT Oracle Server DLL <OCI.DLL>. Please make sure that Oracle has been installed and the PATH variable points to the correct lib directories."
    1. DS is on Windows
    2. DS repo is sql server
    3. Source is Oracle 10g db, target is Sql server db.
    4. Oracle 32 bit full client is installed on the job server (10.2.0.1.0)
    5. I have checked the SAP note 1295918 and I think it does not apply to the version of Oracle client we have and also it is already working in our SANDBOX environment, also our install location is NOT under the c:\program files\  folder
    We are seeing this error only in our DEV DS box, we have a similar setup in the SANDBOX DS and that job executes successfully. I have compared the oracle client, DS and job server configurations between the 2 boxes and they are the same.
    - SQLPLUS connection works from both the servers
    - I am able to connect to the database and look at all the tables within DS designer from both the servers and import them into the DS repo
    - No ORACLE_HOME was set when the installation was done. I created a ORACLE_HOME variable and assigned the install location, but still getting the same error
    Any help is appreciated
    Thanks
    Dinesh

    Dinesh,
    When you added ORACLE_HOME to the environment, the environment settings were updated for the OS.  However, the job server still had the old settings in memory.  That is why you needed to restart the job server before DS would recognize ORACLE_HOME.

  • Cannot find NT oracle server DLL oci.dll (BODI 1112172)

    Guys,
    I am trying to install Data Services 4.1 client tools and I get the error message Cannot find NT oracle server DLL oci.dll (BODI 1112172). I checked the "Path" variable in the system parameter and it contains the folder that has the oci.dll file. Does anyone have ideas on this?
    Thanks,

    So Here is the screenshot of the exact error I am facing. I am able to log in to the DS client tools using Windows AD and able to see the list of repos on the server. However, when I select any of the repos I get the error message below.
    The "Path" roles in the evironment variable as seen in the screenshot below has the folder that contains oci.dll file.
    Help is greatly appreciated.

  • P6 Pro R8.3 Bad public user name or password. Cannot find OCI DLL: oci.dll;

    Here we go again... new release, new round of unsuccessful connections.
    P6 Pro 8.3 attempting to connect to Oracle PMDB or EPPM schema.
    I have a great installation of P6 8.3 EPPM Web up and running with BI 11.1.1.6.0 /P6 Analytics 3.1 /Unifier
    Things I have tried:
    - Clean build to new local database on 32bit (Windows 7 Pro) platform with Oracle 10g XE
    - Upgrade local db from a working 8.2 installation to 8.3 32bit with Oracle 10g XE
    - TNS to working EPPM 8.3 database with P6 Pro client installed on VM - tested successful with 8.2, fails with 8.3
    - Clean P6 Client install to desktop of Win2008R2 (64bit) Application server connecting to existing functional Oracle 11g EPPM
    - Use of admin.cmd and dbconfig.cmd (~\P6 Professional\Pro\Java directory) to configure/manage connection is successful
    - Only one JAVA_HOME - correctly set to the version that installs during P6 8.3 install process
    - both 32bit and 64bit JRE - same results
    - Correctly edited/tested tnsnames on the client and listner on the server. (Confirmed by EPPM Web functional)
    - I can tnsping both a local instance and network db instances
    - using pubuser to connect
    - pubuser exists and can login via SQL Developer
    - upgrade from known good 8.2 to 8.3 db breaks the connection and leaves you with NOTHING TO WORK WITH
    - .Net and DHTML installed and correctly configured.
    Please answer if you can, Oracle Support seems to be down at the moment.

    Some progress... Oracle support is now accessible.
    Oracle Support Document 913053.1 helped me address part of the problem. By adding another Path variable as described in the support document, I was finally able to connect to the EPPM and local XE databases using a client PC (Win7 Pro 32bit). The Path variable existed, but with a minor difference - the word BIN was not capitalized. The variable value of [C:\app\product\11.2.0\client_1\BIN] was able to connect successfully. The value [C:\app\product\11.2.0\client_1\bin] was unsuccessful. I am able to repeat this problem.
    In my case, it seems that with P6 Pro 8.3, the Path Variable might now have become case sensitive. The steps to perform this funky "secret handshake" are both incompletely discussed and cryptic in the P6 Admin Guide, where it talks about the Oracle 11g Instant Client. The Oracle 11g Instant Client is NOT INCLUDED in the P6 Media Kit. (what a surprise)
    I have yet to find why the P6 Pro 8.3 will not connect from the desktop of the server (as 8.2 did) using the 32bit client software. This is most unsettling, because many of my clients use a terminal server installation of the client, which obviously will have this problem.

  • Loading oci.dll Error

    Trying to connect to Oracle for the first time using Visual Studio.Net. I have created a App that has a connection to an Oracle database. That was easy. I then tried to populate a datareader and started receiving the error " Unable to load dll ("oci.dll"). I browsed for .dll and did not find it. My question is how to I get this .dll on a developement (WinXP) workstation and also on a production server running IIS 5.0 to connect to an oracle database? I am new but this is turning out to be a challenge. Thanks for the help in advance!!

    John,
    If you have a proper installation of Oracle Server or Client, oci.dll should be in your %Oracle_Home%\bin directory. For example, c:\Oracle\ora92\bin.

  • Cannot Load OCI.Dll

    Hello:
    I just installed the 64-bit version of 11g Release 1 (11.1.0.6) on a server that is running 64-bit Windows 2003 Server.
    The installation was successful and I checked using SQL Plus. I am able to log and execute queries. I am also able connect using SQL Developer.
    However, when I tried to use SQL Navigator (version 6.1) or Toad 10.0, I get an error message "... Cannot load OCI.DLL".
    When I tried to install another COTS product, it complains that it was unable to find Oracle Client and/or Oracle OLE Objects.
    I was trying both the tasks on the server itself.
    Any ideas on how I can resolve the issues?

    I have the same problem: Oracle 11 R2 on Solaris x86-64 and Oracle client (11.1.0.7.0 x64, unfortunately, there's no client higher than that version.). After installing TOAD 10.1 i've checked client connection:
    SOFTWARE\WOW6432NODE\ORACLE (Oracle Root)
    ORACLE_HOME_NAME:
    ORACLE_HOME: C:\app\User\oracle
    ORACLE_SID:
    NLS_LANG:
    SQLPATH:
    LOCAL:
    C:\app\User\oracle\Bin exists.
    C:\app\User\oracle\Bin is in PATH.
    Client DLL: C:\app\User\oracle\Bin\oci.dll
    Client Version: 11.1.0.7.0
    Home is valid.
    So, TOAD can see the client, but when i'm trying to connect it i got an error:
    Cannot load OCI DLL: oci.dll
    Any suggestions?

  • I receive the error: Unable to load block component C:\Program Files\Hyperception\VABINF\KeyRcv.dll

    I have two Major issues with our Infinity Project computers,
    We have one entire lab that is getting this error... "Unable to load
    block component C:\Program Files\Hyperception\VABINF\KeyRcv.dll. 
    Please verify that the component exists and any dependencies it may
    have are satisfied."  It is also producing this error with
    NumEntry.dll.  Both files exist.  I am not sure what
    dependencies these files may have.  Ideas?
    We have several systems that are giving the following error on one of
    our labs... "You have exceeded the number of block functions allowed by
    VAB for Infinity; contact Hyperception regarding upgrades."  From
    what The professor here at UTA told me when I first took on this
    project, this was a problem that we had on the previous boards and that
    someone at Hyperception was able to help us resolve this problem.
    Can you help out with these issues?  The first one I need an answer today if possible. 
    Thanks,

    We have seen this type of problem on some computers (we do not know why as of yet).The problem with missing blocks is very likely being caused by file permissions, and can be seen when non-administrators are using VAB software. To resolve this: 1. login as ADMINISTRATOR 2. run the command line script from a DOS prompt as shown below: cacls "C:\Program FIles\Hyperception\VABINF" /T /E /G Everyone:F It will scroll through the name of every file in the provided directory, and all subdirectories. This should reset every file, and allow the USER to access all files in VAB software. This should correct the problem. Regards,Steve

  • How do I resolve error message "mapi was unable to load aplzod.dll"? Outlook2010 on Win7

    Attempts to open Outlook calendar files (apparently located) on iCloud result in the error message "MAPI was unable to load the information service C:\PROGRA~2\COMMON~1\Apple\Internet Services\APLZOD.dll". Be sure the service is correctly installed and configured."
    I am running Outlook 2010 on Windows 7. I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes with no apparent effect. Is this a problem with iTunes or Outlook, how do I resolve it?

    That's part of my problem - I was getting the error message when I tried to click on iCloud in the Calendar portion of Outlook 2010. I don't know where it was generated (iCloud, iTunes, or as an add-in to Outlook).
    After my original post I tried restoring my computer to a date when I knew this worked, the restoration worked, and I can access my calendar. So that problem resolved itself.
    I do have another question, but I'll post it separately. Thanks for your response.

    You can download the latest avaiable kernel or just the librrfc component from http://service.sap.com/swdc. They maybe an issue with this DLL. Just download the latest one and copy into \usr\sap\<SID>\SYS\exe\run directory. Be sure to save the previous DLL.
