System.Data.OracleClient requires Oracle client software version 8.1.7 or greater

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



I am building a solution to administer the telephone accounts of the clients
of our nursery home. The solution has a Windows Forms project for the
administrators and an ASP.NET Webapplication for the reception desk for a
fast lookup of phone numbers.

In both projects, I use the System.Data.OracleClient components to
communicate with our Oracle database. The Windows Forms application works
great on my development, but the web application throws an exception when I
load the page:

System.Data.OracleClient requires Oracle client software version 8.1.7 or
greater

Oracle Client 9i (9.2.0.1.0) is installed on the system. In another
newsgroup, I read that the group 'Authenticated users' needs read and
execute rights on the Oracle homedirectory to allow the ASP.NET account to
access the Oracle Client files. However, these rights were already granted
to the group.
I have completely uninstalled the Oracle Client and reinstalled it, but this
didn't solve the problem either.

Any help would be really appreciated!

Ruben
