32 bit Oracle client connect to 64 bit database

edited Jan 26, 2011 5:50PM in Database Networking (MOSC) 7 commentsAnswered

We have a requirement for our 32 bit application to connect to a 64 bit Oracle database on Windows 7 as a standalone environement.

　

The workstation has:

32 bit oracle 11.2.0.1 client

64 bit oracle 11.2.0.1 database

Windows 7 OS

The 32 bit oracle client is installed on a different Oracle home from the 64 bit

database.

　

The oracle_home is set to the 32 bit client home directory. the Path has the 32

bit client home\bin directory prior to the 64 bit database home\bin directory.

The sqlnet.ora file and tnsnames.ora file (points to the 64 bit database) are

both in the 32 bit client's network\admin directory.

I could connect to the database via SQLPLUS.

Howdy, Stranger!
