Configuration Failure on 64-bit Oracle

Valid on 64-bit Oracle 11g R1 and 11g R2

Symptom:

The configuration fails and the following error messages appear on 64-bit Oracle:

• In the stdlog: "Unable to connect to Oracle database mdbadmin on server"
• In the checkdb.0 log: “Unable to load the OCI library or DLL. Cannot continue!”

Solution:

Install the latest 32-bit Oracle client, and do the following:

• On Windows, verify that the path includes the directory for the 32-bit Oracle libraries.
• On UNIX, set the library path variable so it points to the 32-bit Oracle library.

Note: The problem can also occur when migrating from a previous release of CA SDM. If the error occurs during migration, install the client and run the migration.
