devart provider with entity framework connection string

Post by [email protected] » Fri 24 May 2013 18:57

Hi,

I'm using the devart dotConnect professional provider (version 7.7.242.0) for oracle in my ASP.NET MVC 4 C# project.

When I try to make a request on the oracle database,
I got this error :

"An error occurred while getting provider information from the database. This can be caused by Entity Framework using an incorrect connection string. Check the inner exceptions for details and ensure that the connection string is correct"

This is my configuration :

<configSections>

<section name="entityFramework" type="System.Data.Entity.Internal.ConfigFile.EntityFrameworkSection, EntityFramework, Version=4.4.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" requirePermission="false" />

</configSections>

<connectionStrings>

<add name="NetworkXContext" connectionString="Data Source=***;User Id=***; Password=***;" providerName="Devart.Data.Oracle" />

</connectionStrings>

1. Please specify the name of the template you are using (e.g.: ObjectContext or DbContext).
2. The value of the "Metadata Artifact Processing" property of your model.
3. Post here the full call stack (with the inner exception).

Thanks for your replys.
It's solved for the moment.
I installed Oracle client on my computer.
And now it's work...
I plan to investigate this result later.
