FYI, VB 6.0 is limited to 32-bit so you would need to have the 32-bit Oracle OLEDB Provider installed.

  • The specified store provider cannot be found in the configuration?

    I got the error "The specified store provider cannot be found in the configuration, or is not valid"
    while excuting the following command:
    E:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\EdmGen.exe /nologo /language:CSharp
    /mode:ViewGeneration /inssdl:$(TargetDir)Entities.ssdl
    /incsdl:$(TargetDir)Entities.csdl /inmsl:$(TargetDir)Entities.msl
    /outviews:$(ProjectDir)Entities.Views.cs
    this is to pre_generate views to improve Entity framework performance, itruns well for SqlServer.
    What is the issue? I checked in machine.config, it seems ok:
    <DbProviderFactories>
    *<add name="Oracle Data Provider for .NET" invariant="Oracle.DataAccess.Client" description="Oracle Data Provider for .NET" type="Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleClientFactory, Oracle.DataAccess, Version=4.112.3.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89b483f429c47342"/>*

    Hey,
    Can you check if the line: DbProviderFactory factory = DbProviderFactories.GetFactory("Oracle.DataAccess.Client"); works in a simple console app?

  • "Provider cannot be found.It may not be installed properly"

    Hi All,
    I am running into this error "Provider cannot be found.It may not be installed properly" while I am trying to connect to Oracle from Excel VBA.
    I had installed both Oracle 10.1 and Oracle 10.2 in the same machine and is working with .NET applications.My .NET applications works fine.But when I try to connect from within the EXCEL VBA,it gives me this error.
    This is my oracle client folder structure
    Oracle 10.1 -> C:\Program Files\Oracle\product\10.1.0\Client_1
    Oracle 10.2 client -> C:\Program Files\Oracle\product\10.2.0\Client_2
    Oracle 10.2 ODAC -> C:\Program Files\Oracle\product\10.2.0\Client_1
    As part of working around this error,I have uninstalled my 10.2 and now I just have 10.1 in my local machine.
    This is the code snippet where the error occurs in VBA
    Set Conn = New ADODB.Connection
    Conn.ConnectionString = "Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle;Data Source=datasource;User ID=userid;Password=pwd;CacheType=Memory"
    Conn.ConnectionTimeout = 60
    Conn.Open
    I would really appreciate any help as I have been working around this erro for the last 2 days
    Thanks much!

    Hi,
    Why do you have 3 Oracle homes?
    Mutliple Oracle homes on Windows is a pain at best. Oracle's OLEDB and ODBC drivers require that their home be first in your PATH.
    Generally you can have as many homes as you want, but can only USE the home that's first in your PATH, and things like OraOLEDB, being a com object, can only be installed into a single home.
    In your registry, what does HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{3F63C36E-51A3-11D2-BB7D-00C04FA30080}\InprocServer32\(Default) point to (the entry for Oracle's OLEDB provider)? Is it the same home that's first in your path if you open a dos prompt and type PATH?
    Hope it helps

  • The specified store provider cannot be found... as service

    I get the error "+The specified store provider cannot be found in the configuration, or is not valid.+" when I run my application as a windows service. If I run it as a "normal" exe file everything run OK.

  • Interesting angle on 'Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed' error

    Hi, I am getting the "Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed" message when running a .bat->VBScript script using Windows Task Scheduler. I am not seeing a solution in Google searches. Possibly I am not seeing the similarities because of a lack of detail in posts. Who knows.
    Info as follows:
    - Installed ODAC1120320_x64.zip using my personal user account.
    - Using my personal user account there is no problem. I use file explorer to run a .bat file that in turn calls the VBScript.
    - Using the System account and Windows Task Scheduler the script fails with the above error.
    - File ACLs for the Oracle home\..\bin directory give full control to the System account
    - ACLs for the ORAOLEDB.Oracle registry key gives access to the System account. I am assuming that all other key-value pairs involved in this problem have the same ACLs.
    - Hosted on Windows 2008 (VM)
    - The scripting language is VBScript, called from a .bat file. Task Scheduler calls the .bat file.
    - The scheduled task has the "Run with highest privilages" box checked (same problem with the box unchecked).
    - This configuration and script works well on an older Windows 2003 (dedicated) server
    - Connection string:
    "Provider=ORAOLEDB.Oracle;" &_
      "User ID=[DB Schema Name];Password=[password];" &_
      "Data Source=[TSN name];"
    - I can mess with aspects of the TSN name and file without a change in the error message
    Thanks for your help.

    We got the same error under windows 2003 SP2 and Oracle 10g release 2. Is there any problem with this provider in this release? We installed downgrade version of this provider, it is working. Is there any other way to avoid this error without going for downgrade?

    All,
    I have a solution developed in Visual Studio 2012 targetting .Net 4.0. Simplified: Startup project is a WPF library and supporting this library is another project that uses Entity Framework to retrieve data. I have copied the connection strings from my EF project to my startup project, and everything seems to work fine on the development machine.
    However, as sson as this project is run on a user's desktop they get the error:
    System.ArgumentException
    The specified store provider cannot be found in the configuration, or is not valid.

    I've already verified that Oracle.DataAccess is referenced in my EF project, and I'm including oci.dll, orannzsbb11.dll, oraociei11.dll, and OraOps11w.dll in my main library (fat installation).
    This configuration worked when using the older ADO.Net DataSets, but now I want to use EF 4.4 (DataBase first/model first/whatever it's not Code First) because it's just easier to code against. So obviously I'm missing something when it comes to deploying my solution. Any ideas?
    Note that this is a desktop application using MS OneClick.

    Same issue:
    The specified store provider cannot be found in the configuration, or is not valid. ---> System.ArgumentException: Unable to find the requested .Net Framework Data Provider. It may not be installed.
    You mention "Sounds like the client system doesn't have an Oracle client installed."
    I am using Win Server 2008 R2. I have installed what i think is the right client. How do i tell?
    What is the right client? Where do i get it?

  • HT1925 I cannot install the latest version of Itunes under Windows XP because itunes.msi cannot be found in order to remove the older version (11.0.1.12) of itunes

    I cannot install the latest version of Itunes under Windows XP because itunes.msi cannot be found in order to remove the older version (11.0.1.12) of itunes.  Is there any other way I can accomplish an upgrade without using the Itunes.msi file?

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    Hi,

    This message comes only on IE8 as I had installed Mozilla but that issue is not coming on Mozilla. I don't why this issue is coming and how to solve this issue. I had gone with every possible results which I found in google but noting seems to be helpful. Please
    help me as it's urgent and I am deploying on production server.
    Thanks...

    Hi Awadhendra,
    This error usually occurs if IE is configured with the "Do not save encrypted pages to disk" advanced options setting or the server is using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and has added one or both of the following HTTP headers to the response message:
    e.g: Response.AddHeader "Cache-control: no-cache" or “Cache-control: no-store”.
    To solve this issue, please try to cancel the “Do not save encrypted pages to disk” option in the advanced internet options or setting the “BypassSSLNoCache” registry. For more details, please refer to

    Fixed. /Users/x/Library/Application Support/SIMBL/Plugins/AirKeysInputManager.bundle got corrupted by a badly installed safari extension. Deleting this, then reinstalling adobe air did the trick. I wasn't thorough enough on my first try, it was tricky to find everything associated. I had to look for files in the console log then search for them. Spotlight was missing some deep files, EasyFind worked better for me.

    Pages died today. Just downloaded the latest update 2 days ago. Last night shutting down my very new MacBook Pro Retina, Pages stopped shut down. Today Pages will not open, all my Pages docs cannot open. Help please! Anybody have a fix?

    You probably have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 in your Applications folder, will open Pages '09 files but will alter/damage them. It can not open Pages '08 files.
    Pages '08/'09 in your Applications/iWork folder which can not open Pages 5 files.
    When you were shutting down you probably had an unsaved document open.
    You probably are opening the wrong versions of Pages to open the wrong document format.
    Pages 5 has had over 90+ features removed.
    Most users are going back to Pages 09 whilst Apple sorts this out.

  • OraOLEDB.Oracle-Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed.

    I have a traditional ASP page that uses the OraOLEDB.Oracle.1 provider to connect to an Oracle database. The oracle 9 client is installed on the Webserver and the asp page can successfully connect to the oracle database using the Microsoft OLE DB provider for Oracle. The problem with using the Microsoft provider is that the database has a datatype that is not recognized by the Microsoft provider. I cannot understand why the OraOLEDB.Oracle provider is not working. I have verified permissions on the Ora90 directory and it is set to allow EVERYONE read and execute permissions currently. I have .NET apps on the server that use the OracleClient.dll successfully.
    Does anyone have any ideas on what I could try to get the OraOLEDB.Oracle provider working?

    Just as an FYI for everyone.
    The base version of the Oracle Client 9.2.0.1.0 has a known bug with installing DLLs with incorrect permissions for Authtenicated Users. You will see this type of error message when connecting from ASP or ASPX but not client server applications.
    This is fixed in 9.2.0.7.0 client patchset, restart and it should work fine. Other scenarios can cause same error like the provider not being installed, the key different is that you can connect via client server but not Web Applications when you are hitting this permissions bug.

  • Provider cannot be found

    Hi folks,
    I have seen a lot of posts on this problem but they have not worked and are rather old - 2006-2008.
    The problem I am facing is when I try to run a third-party software (that is supposed to connect to Oracle DB) on Windows Server 2008 64bit, it gives this error. (it is supported on 64bit)
    But no such problem when running it on a WinXP.
    I suspect it is either a wrongly installed / configured OraDB client, or insufficient Windows userid privileges.
    I would really appreciate if someone could share some up-to-date information that could help.
    OraDB is 10g R5
    Thanx!

    Hi Greg,
    The application could not even launch, but I believe it is inherently 32bit. There is no 64bit version and it is stated 64bit Windows is supported.
    I actually installed (inadvertently actually) the 32bit client at first, but I hit a problem when testing using sqlplus, not knowing about UAC in WinServer2008 R2, so I did not even install the application.
    So, DBA installed 64bit client, and only then did I install the application and hit the provider not found error.
    I have actually disabled UAC and tried reinstalling the Client Windows Interface (which contains provider for OLE DB) but hit the same problem.
    I will probably install the 32bit client again based on your feedback here.
    Rgds,
