Remoting into Server to get Orcale.DataAccess.dll

Question

I am remoting into a server which has the Orcale.DataAccess.dll in the GAC. However when I call a function in the .dll I get the following exception:

'Could not load file or assembly 'Orcale.DataAccess, Version=2.112.2.0, Culture=netural, PublicKeyToken=89b483f429c47342' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified'

It is a Windows Server 2003 32 bit and I am remoting from a XP SP3 32bit client.

Any help will be appreciated ?

Answer 1

On the XP SP3 32bit machine, do you have the oracle client version (Version=2.112.2.0) running on the win 2003 server?

If no, try this: 1. Copy the oracle dll from 2003 server to project library. 2. Rebuild project and try again.
