I have installed 64 bit oracle (11.2g) on my windows server 2012 R2 64 bit. All works fine with sqlplus.
Now my software is still 32 bit and when I try and connect, it get an error "Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed.".
Is this because I am trying to connect 32 bit software with 64 bit oracle? Or something else might be wrong?
Install an oracle 11G 32 bit client in another Oracle home.

I have been trying to connect to an Oracle Database using SSIS(Visual Studio) using ODBC as the connection manager.
My OS is Windows 7 (64 bit), Visual Studio 2010 (32-bit) and Oracle 11G is 64 bit.
While connecting to Oracle 11G using Visual Studio via ODBC I am greeted with the following error:
'The specified DSN has an architecture mismatch between driver and application'
This is understandable as Visual Studio is 32 bit and the server I am trying connect to is 64 bit.
Possible solutions?
Install both the 32 and 64 bit providers for oracle. This will allow you to configure the connection (in 32 bit) and run the package in 64 bit.
Also, check out attunity: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=44582
This is a free oracle source and destination component from Microsoft. You'll find that it uses native oracle interfaces and runs much faster than ODBC.

Please clarify the following doubts
1) Can we install oracle client 32 bit on windows 2012 64 bit ?
2) Can we install Both (oracle client 32 bit and Oracle client 64 bit) on windows 2012 64 bit ?

Yes for both questions.
When you like to install both 32 bit and 64 bit on one machine, follow this instruction: BadImageFormatException. This will occur when running in 64 bit mode with the 32 bit Oracle client components installed
Otherwise you have to shuffle around with PATH and other environment values, resp. registry entries.
Yes. Depending on the client applications you sometimes need both. You can install each in it's own Oracle home.

This problem will occur when running in 64 bit mode with the 32 bit Oracle client components installed.
I am running an application in Visual Studio 12 and first I installed Oracle 11g 64 bit on Windows 7 64bit after than it was showing the same error Attempt to load.
Then I installed SQL developer 32 bit mode using jdk 32 bit then my report mailers that is also developed in the same application started working but my application that I used to run on local host is not accepting my credentials and displaying the same error when checking data connection in server explorer.
I tried installing both the 32 bit and 64 bit and changing configuration manager mode to everything(cpu , 64 bit , 32 bit ).
I am using Windows 10 64 bit and Oracle client 32 bit (It's my company requirement). But when I open some existed program, it display a dialog with error:
Attempt to load oracle client libraries threw badimageformatexception.
This problem will occur when running in 64 bit mode with the 32 bit
Oracle client components installed
I had fixed by add Enviroment variables but it's not working. I am searching around Google, but the solution almost about fix on Visual Studio when developing application.
These program is existed, not run from Visual Studio.
How should I do to make application which using Oracle client 32 bit on OS 64 bit?
A 32 bit application requires also a 32 bit Oracle Client. A 64 bit application (resp. "AnyCPU" on windows 64 bit) requires a 64 bit Oracle Client.
Unless you use the ODP.NET Managed Driver (see here) there is not way to get rid of it. One solution is to install both, 32 bit and 64 bit Oracle Client, follow this instruction: BadImageFormatException. This will occur when running in 64 bit mode with the 32 bit Oracle client components installed
