Problem with Instant Client

Post by heidenbluth » Mon 24 Oct 2005 13:58

I tried to connect with Oracle's instant client. It works as far as there is a registry key 'HKLM/Software/Oracle'. If you remove or rename the key it ends up with an exception.
Could you fix this, please?

Please specify your ODAC version, InstantClient version and whether there are another Oracle clients on your PC.
Also send us your PATH variable and make sure that path to instant client is the first among oracle clients paths in system PATH variable.
Note that you should use TOraSession.HomeName property to specify required homename but only if it exists in registry, otherwise you should not fill this property
