EF to Oracle

Ramon Barrios

11y1.7kLINQ

I made a model with EF to Oracle, so far so good, but when I call dbcontex to manipulate the data with LINQ shows the following error:

The Entity Framework provider type 'Oracle.DataAccess.RdbClient.RdbProviderServices, Oracle.DataAccess.Rdb, Version=7.3.2.1, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=24caf6849861f483' registered in the application config file for the ADO.NET provider with invariant name 'Oracle.DataAccess.RdbClient' could not be loaded. Make sure that the assembly-qualified name is used and that the assembly is available to the running application. See http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=260882 for more information.

I appreciate all the help!!!!

Install this from oracle:

And also try following this thread:

Put the correct version of Oracle.DataAccess.dll into the application /BIN folder and make local reference.

I just found the complete walkthrough from Oracle:

Hope this helps.
