Install oracle client 32 bit on Windows Server 2012 64 bit - oracle11g

I have installed 64 bit oracle(11.2g) on windows server 2012 64 bit.
When I try to install 32 bit oracle client on windows server 2012 64 bit, I get only the following directories in my install.
cfgtoollogs
install
inventory
jdbc
light
odbc
rdbms
Any suggestions please?

Why do you think that's a problem? You're installing the client not the entire database. The client install is a minimal install consisting of basic libraries required to connect to the database

Oracle 11g connectivity issue with VBA

I am trying to connect Oracle with VBA using connection string OraOLEDB.Oracle and it is throwing an error Provider not found
MS Office 365 - 64 bit
Oracle 11g - 64 bit
Windows7 - 64 bit
It is not possible for me to switch to 32 bit.
It will be a great help.
You need to get the 64-bit OLEDB driver installed. Repair your Oracle installation or download it from here.

Oracle 10G Installation on Windows

I have a database: Oracle SQL Developer 3.2.20.9
an asp.net web application running locally on a pc with Windows 7 enterprise 64 bit, and to developed it I used Visual Studio 2013.
Now I should connect the application with the db so I' m trying to install:
Oracle 10g ODAC and Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio .NET
I get this Error:
"Abnormal program termination. an internal error has occured. Please provide the following files to Oracle Support:
Unknown
Unknown
Unknown"
Could I connect the webapp in other ways?
When I go to Server Explorer in Visual Studio and I choose connect to database -> add connection -> Oracle database -> .NET framework Data Provider for Oracle
I get:
"This provider is deprecated and should not be used. Instead, download Oracle Developer Tools for visual Studio for comprehensive integration with Oracle databases."
Oracle supports connections back two versions. You should try installing the ODAC client for 11g as that will connect to a version 10 database and supports windows 7.
Seeing as SQL developer is free why not get the latest version 4.02 here
Be sure to get an ODAC version that matches the bitness of the database, 32 bit or 64 bit. You can check this by logging onto the machine with Run > cmd > sqlplus > connect as your user/your password. If the header that is returned does not say 64 bit then the database is a 32 bit install and you need ODAC to match that.
And seeing as connecting to Oracle is popular question a good troubleshooting routine is
connect from sqlplus on the database
connect with sql developer from your client pc
then try connecting through Visual Studio.

Cannot get ADO connection working on a classic ASP website running in IIS Express on Windows 7 64 bit

I have a legacy classic ASP website that I need to do some maintenance work on. My development machine is running Windows 7 64 bit, Visual Studio 2012 and IIS Express 8.0.
The ASP app is backed by a Microsoft Access database.
The website runs fine until it tries to establish a connection to the database, where it fails with the following:
0x800a0e7a - ADODB.Connection: Provider cannot be found. It may not be
properly installed.
If the ASP process is running as 64-bit and it is trying to use the Jet database engine then that won't work because there is no 64-bit version of Jet. If that is the case then you can either
install the 64-bit version of the Access Database Engine (ACE), available here, and tweak the connection parameters as required, or
get the ASP process to run as 32-bit
I had the same problem you mention in a follow up comment.
I tried to install the 64 bit version, but I could not because I have
Office 2010 32 bit installed.
You can force the 64 bit version of the Access Database Engine (ACE) from here to install with the 'passive' switch:
AccessDatabaseEngine_x64.exe /passive

Is there any way to run TOAD on 64bit Oracle Client?

I am using Toad for Oracle Xpert 10.1.1.8 on Win 7 64bit operating system. I have installed Oracle 11g 64bit client. I am getting this error: Cannot load OCI DLL: C:\oracle\product\11.1.0\oci.dll. I googled this error and found TOAD only runs on 32bit Oracle Client. Is there any way to run TOAD on 64bit Oracle Client?
As per the knowledge article on Quest Support base
Toad for Oracle versions prior to 11.6 cannot support a 64-bit Oracle
Client due to limitations in Delphi programming language used in some
of Toads components.
Versions 11.6 onwards are fully 64-bit compliant. There is now a
64-bit installer and 32-bit installer. Please note that you should
install a 64-bit Oracle client for the 64-bit Toad installation and a
32-bit Oracle Client for the 32-bit installation.
For 11.5 and below, a 32-bit Oracle client must be installed

Unable to connect the Oracle server on 64 bit machine through ASP.NET on 64 bit machine

I am new to Oracle..and i am working on a ASP.NET Application whose backend is Oracle 11g.
I have 2 Machines for development. One is the Database Server(Windows Server 2008 R2) and second is the Application server(Windows 7).
I have installed a Oracle server 11g standard edition on Database server machine.
I have installed the Visual Studio 2010 and oracle 11g client on the Application server.
Now i am able to connect the oracle database server through the Application server using Toad.
But when i try to connect the database server through the ASP.NET 4.0 Application, then i am unable to connect the oracle and get the following error...
Attempt to load Oracle client libraries threw BadImageFormatException.
This problem will occur when running in 64 bit mode with the 32 bit
Oracle client components installed.
I have tried to set the Target Platform to x64 , but still it didnt work...
Any Help/Suggestions will be appreciated....
Thanks in Advance.....
The issue seems to be exactly what it says. Looks like the Oracle Client you have installed is a 32-bit Oracle client. Download and install the 64-bit version of Oracle client.
