'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 is not registered in the local machine.' - asp.net

I have installed Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13255 on the Windows 2008 server. However, when I ran my web application to import a spreadsheet table to the database. It complains with the error message - "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 is not registered in the local machine."
I have tested my code and works in my Windows 7 local machine. Any idea?

There is a problem with Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12 when AccessDatabaseEngine x86 or x64 2010 is installed.
I have long attempted to use the SSMS (2005-2008-2008R2-2012) Export Wizards to export large tables onto Excel and I needed the AccessDatabaseEngine installed to be able to do that.
However, regardless of the MS Office version (2010, x86 or x64, or whatever it is), the 2010 version of AccessDatabaseEngine will not work towards registering the provider.
The solution is to download and install the previous one which is none other than the 2007 x86 one.
This one will work even if Office or SQL Server or VS are x64.
Download it from here http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=23734
Now, any other propagated issues revolving around the notorious failure to register "the provider" on the local machine for the Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12 should be resolved by the above.
Feel free to paste me your experiences on this matter.

Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' provider is not registered on the local machine in VS2010 Only

'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' provider is not registered on the local machine. I am getting this in visual studio only after upgrading from 32bit office 2013 to 64bit office 16. I have already installed the 64bit database engine and my published project from IIS is working with the existing access database. I switched debug mode to x64 and remove the references to the old office and replaced them with the new office access. How can I get Visual Studio 2010 to recognize my access database created in access 2013?
Things I have tried:
Installing Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable 64bit version.
Updating the office references in the project.
Debugging in x64 mode
This is a little outside of my normal area of database application design;
it's unclear - you state 2016 Office 64 bit installed but then Access 2010 Redistributable/Runtime 64bit - - so do you have a full license of Access installed?
if you do have the full Access license - try something that is quick: create a brand new database and import that table. Then try the link to this new db.
I had that issue in the past.
install 2007 Office System Driver and restart visual studio.
I've dealt many time with this problem, the solution was ever install one of these:
AccessDatabaseEngine 2007.exe
AccessDatabaseEngine_2010.exe
AccessDatabaseEngine_2016.exe
AccessDatabaseEngine_X64_2010.exe
AccessDatabaseEngine_X64_2016.exe
Most of the time I've solved installing the 2007 one even using 2016 version.
To run 32-bit applications on IIS, you will get the same error. So, from the IIS 7, right-click on the applications' application pool and go to "advanced settings" and change "Enable 32-Bit Applications" to "TRUE".
Restart your website and it should work.

OraOLEDB.Oracle provider is not registered on the local machine (VS 2013)

I had install a Visual studio 2013 ultimate version and oracle 11g express edition (11.2.0.2.0 64 bit) in my pc.
I tried to open a existing project and try to connect the database, but it throw me the error above. as long as I refresh the database OR conn.open(), it will throw me "OraOLEDB.Oracle provider is not registered on the local machine".
Anyone has experience this issues? or any method that might help on this? I have struggle with this problem for few days.
Your comment and suggestion is much appreciated!!!
Looks like you did not install the "OraOLEDB.Oracle" - it is not included by default.
Check your options in Oracle Universal Installer or you can download it from here 64-bit Oracle Data Access Components (ODAC) Downloads
Note, since you installed 64 bit version of Oracle, you also have to compile your application as "x64", otherwise it does not work.

is there a 64-bit msdasql for windows 7?

I am using Windows 7 (x64bit) Ultimate.
I have both ODBC32 and ODBC64 Managers that I can access via Start.
The default appears to be the ODBC64.
However I do not see MSDASQL -Microsoft OLEDB for ODBC listed.
I wonder if it exists. I see some references to 64Bit MSDASQL for Windows Server 2003.
The IBM 64bit for ODBC seems to work (I heard) but not tried.
Now I would like to know if any one knows the link for 64-bit MSDASQL for Windows 7. Microsoft seems to have deprecated MSDASQL and I am not sure of the status of this story.
These issues came up while setting up a linked server in SQL Server 2012 for SQL (SAP) SqlAnywhere server.
I am not sure how I missed. This link allows you to download the Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13255
The details of this indicates both ODBC and OLEDB as copied from the Microsoft Web Site:
"This download will install a set of components that facilitate the transfer of data between existing Microsoft Office files such as Microsoft Office Access 2010 (*.mdb and .accdb) files and Microsoft Office Excel 2010 (.xls, *.xlsx, and *.xlsb) files to other data sources such as Microsoft SQL Server. Connectivity to existing text files is also supported. ODBC and OLEDB drivers are installed for application developers to use in developing their applications with connectivity to Office file formats. "
There is no MSDASQL x64 bit for Windows 7. There is one for Windows Server 2003. I finally was able to create a linked server in SQL Server 2012 Express using the SAOLEDB.16 from Sybase/SAP.
Although I replied myself that there is no MSDASQL(x64)based on some 'deprecated items' information I am still looking at it.
Here is a link to the same question on MSDN:

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

Oledb Issues while reading data from an Excel file in a website hosted on IIS 7

I have a website which will use OleDB.12.0 to read data from an Excel worksheet upon upload. It works fine on my local PC. But when hosted in my production server I get the following error.
microsoft.ace.oledb.12.0 is not registered on the local machine
How can I correct this?
My production server configuration:
MS Office 2007.
IIS 7
VS 2010
Windows 2008 R2
SQL Server2008
Does your production server have Access installed?
In any event, try installing/reinstalling Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable to the production server.
Update
Another point: is your production server running 32-bit or 64-bit Windows? Choose the download appropriately.
Update 2
From this link it appears that using the 64-bit version will cause trouble on a 32-bit system, but the 32-bit version will work.
