I'm moving a VB.NET 2010 app from a 32bit 2003 server to a 64bit 2008 server that connects to an Oracle 11g database, and am getting the following error message when executing it.
DefaultSource Error 2
ERROR [08004] [Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
ERROR [IM006] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed
Here's some things I've done.
Added the TNS_ADMIN environment variable to the server.
Had server management install the 64bit "Oracle driver Oracle in OraClient11g_home1". They also uninstalled the 32bit "Microsoft ODBC for Oracle" driver.
Verified I can connect to the server using SQLPlus
Updated my connection string as I use to use the 32bit "Microsoft ODBC for Oracle"
Added the database to the ODBC System DNS, and verified the connection worked.
Here's my connection string from my config file under the node.
<add name="SCHEMA_NAME"
connectionString="Driver={Oracle in OraClient11g_home1};Dbq=DATABASE_NAME;uid=USER;pwd=PASSWORD;"/>
Any suggestions to what I can try, or what needs to be changed to get this working on the new server?
I fixed the problem by changing the way I connect to oracle. I'm using the Oracle.DataAccess reference, removing the driver reference in the connection string, and rebuilding the connection using OracleConnection and oracleCommand.

I am trying to connect to a sql server 2012 database. I created this connection
, basically just changed the server, database in connection string of meatadata access and data access. I have tested I can use the user name password to access the sql server in sql server management studio. And when I click test it reports successful.
But when I create a mapping and a physical object (read) based on that connection, when I try data view on that object, it reports this error:

One thing to note, when I created that physical object, I used that connection and I was able to select a table, which proves the connection is successful.
As from the error message "Connection string is not valid".
For a Native SQL Server connection work without provide it
Your can try a connection with the ODBC protocol, but instead as for the PowerCenter, where it need to be created a ODBC 64 bit connection on the Windows Server 2012, for the developer and PowerCenter Express, instead I found that it need still an ODBC but from the local machine.
Follow this steps:
-Launch the ODBC Administrator using the odbcad32.exe file located in the
C:\Windows\SysWOW64 directory.
-Create a new ODBC SQL data source under user and make sure do not use space in the name.
-Restart the Developer Client.
-Create in the Developer Client a ODBC connection with your parameters.
Please make sure to use as "Connection String" the same you used for the ODBC source on your local machine.
So if you called it "SQL_Local" that is your Connection String
I'm getting an error from report:
The OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "linkname" reported an error. The provider reported an unexpected catastrophic failure.
I'm checking to find out the installed driver and port number from the Windows server 2008 R2. I checked in "C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc" services file, but unable to get which exact service I need to check?
My ODBC data source administrator window is listing below drivers:
1. MySQL ODBC driver
2. Oracle in OraClient 10g
3. SQL Server
4. SQL Server native client
How can I find the detailed information; what is the current driver installed on what port number ? Is the current driver installed is compatible with Progress DB ? If it's not compatible, which latest driver I need to install to make it compatible with Progress 11?
You will need to download the SQL Client Access software from Progress web site.

Look for the SQL Client Access:
I am using Oracle ODI 11.1.1.7 version on a Windows 7 64bit machine. I want to connect to a SQL Server 2005 database using the driver com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver.
I have downloaded and installed from Microsoft the drivers
Microsoft JDBC Driver 4.1 for SQL Server
and also
Microsoft JDBC Driver 4.0 for SQL Server
But I still have a connection error:
ODI-26039: Connection failed
Java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Could not load JDBC driver class [com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver]
Did anyone else experience this issue?
Thank you in advance.
Kindly check this url. You need the specific driver depending upon the version of JDBC. You need to elaborate more on your question.

I have a 32 bit .net exe (on a win 7 machine) which runs and writes data to an oracle db. For this application to access the DB I have created a ODBC source (Microsoft ODBC for Oracle) under System DSN of odbcad32.exe from c:\windows\syswow64.
Instead of picking this source the application is picking a default connection source for the user. Please see below. (from sqlnet.ORA)
Fatal NI connect error 12560, connecting to:
(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=BEQ)(PROGRAM=oracle)(ARGV0=oracleORCL)(ARGS='(DESCRIPTION=(LOCAL=YES)(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=beq)))'))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=ORCL)(CID=(PROGRAM=D:\Projects\abc\Web\dll\reader.exe)(HOST=abc-43DGMX1)(USER=NGolia))))
The application (exe) is obviously not able to connect to the correct DB and throws a
ERROR SQLConnect() Failed.
Could anyone help let me know what could be missing? Am I missing any environment variables or
Are you able to test the connection in the Oracle ODBC Driver Configuration? If the application is 32bit, you're using the correct odbcad32.exe. I would check your tnsnames.ora in your $ORACLE_HOME and verify the database information looks correct there.
I have an oracle DB i need to talk to so i installed the drivers and added it to the system DSN Data Sources. IM ON SQL SERVER 2008 R2 64bit
In BIDS, I can see the name of the DataSource, however when i go to enter it in the connection manager I get the following error:
TITLE: Connection Manager
Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. ERROR [IM014] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] The specified DSN contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and Application
Any Ideas on how to resolve this?
I can connect to the Oracle DB through SQL Plus so i know i have connectivity.
Thanks!
When you installed the 11g client, I assume you did a custom install and installed the ODBC driver, right? And you set your ODBC DSN up using the Oracle Driver, not the Microsoft Driver? Did you test the DSN with the ODBC wizard?
#kevin
The Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. ERROR [IM014] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] The specified DSN contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and Application
this error can be resolved by using a 32 bit driver for oracle connectivity and setting the package runtime properties to set 64 bit runtime= false.
also create a odbc dsn by using the 32 bit oracle driver.on 64 bit machines search for odbc32.exe. the path for it is the following C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe.
run this as an administrator and use this DSN in your SSIS package and the issue will be resolved.
