IIS error: Can't initialize OCI. Error -1

Post by Guest » Tue 13 Sep 2005 11:52

Hi,

I have an isapi application running on IIS. The dll uses the dbexpoda.dll driver to connect to a remote database.

If I don't grant administrator priviledges to the anonymous user account of IIS (IUSR), I've got this error message when i try to connect to the web site:

Can't initialize OCI. Error -1

If I don't want to add IUSR to the administrator group (for security reason), what kind of rights (at least) do I have to set on?

Thanks

Paul

The most probable situation is that your application have no rights to load necessary dll files of Oracle client.
Or Oracle client cannot load all its components (dll files, read registry settings).
