Hi,

I'm using dotConnect for Oracle Pro (5.70.190.0) to support Entity Framework 4.0 on my app. I'm going to deploy my app to Win2008 R2 (64bit) machine.

Should I install 32bit or 64bit Oracle Client on Win2008 R2 machine?

The capacity (x86 or x64) of your Oracle client has to be the same as the one of the process of your application. You can check the capacity of the process via Windows Task Manager.
