I have a .NET 4.0 with ODAC 11.2.0.3.20 (ODP.NET 2.112.3.0) using Entity framework project running correctly on localhost.
I have been scratching my head over this issue. I keep running into this issue on our new IIS 7.5 server with ODAC 11.2.0.1.2 (ODP.NET 2.112.1.2) installed.
I think it is because ODP.NET 2.112.1.2 does not support Entity Framework. My old code not using EF still works but as soon as I hit EF code it breaks.
The admin doesn't want to update ODP.NET. How do I make my website work on this server? Thanks
