Hi ,
I use ODBC DSN to connect Oracle.

string newConnString ="DSN=OracleTest;UID=tt;PWD=pp";
OdbcConnection m_connection = new OdbcConnection(newConnString);
m_connection.Open();

when I setup the DSN in windows ODBC Datasource manager, the test
connection successfully, but when use in asp.net code,
I got the following errors:
'ERROR [IM003] Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error
5 (Oracle in OraHome92)."

Does anyone have some idea about this error?
Thanks.

Can you connect through SQL Plus? Is this an ASP.NET application?

This may be a permissions issue with respect to your Oracle folders. The following Oracle Metalink
article has more information on this:

http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showNOT?p_id=215255.1&p_showHeader=1&p_showHelp=1

If you need to create a login ID for Metalink:

Thanks for you reply.
I can connect through SQL Plus, and I can also connect this DSN with C++.
when with ASP.NET, it doesn't work .

I use Oracle Personal Edition, I don't have Support Identifier (CSI),
then I can't register Metalink ?
Can you then copy the content of that document ?
Thanks a lot!

Problem Description
-------------------

When running an application using the Oracle9i Release 2 (9.2.0.1.0) install
of client software and that attempts to connect to an Oracle database with the
Authenticated User privilege (such as when you use Microsoft's Internet
Information Server (IIS)) through any of the following programmatic interfaces

1. Oracle Provider for OLE DB
2. Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle
3. Oracle ODBC Driver
4. Microsoft ODBC for Oracle
5. Oracle Objects for OLE (OO4O)
6. Microsoft .NET Framework Data Provider for Oracle

you may receive one of the following errors:

(1) Oracle Provider for OLE DB

(a) Error Type: Microsoft OLE DB Service Components (0x80070005)

(d) System Error 998 trying to run ASP page

Solution Description
--------------------

Oracle 9.2 Client software requires that you give the Authenticated User
privilege to the Oracle Home by following these steps:

1. Log on to Windows as a user with Administrator privileges.

2. Launch Windows Explorer from the Start Menu and and navigate to the
ORACLE_HOME folder. This is typically the "Ora92" folder under the
"Oracle" folder (i.e. D:\Oracle\Ora92).

3. Right-click on the ORACLE_HOME folder and choose the "Properties" option
from the drop down list. A "Properties" window should appear.

4. Click on the "Security" tab of the "Properties" window.

5. Click on "Authenticated Users" item in the "Name" list (on Windows XP
the "Name" list is called "Group or user names").

6. Uncheck the "Read and Execute" box in the "Permissions" list under the
"Allow" column (on Windows XP the "Permissions" list is called
"Permissions for Authenticated Users").

7. Re-check the "Read and Execute" box under the "Allow" column (this is
the box you just unchecked).

8. Click the "Advanced" button and in the "Permission Entries" list make
sure you see the "Authenticated Users" listed there with:

Permission = Read & Execute
Apply To = This folder, subfolders and files

If this is NOT the case, edit that line and make sure the "Apply onto"
drop-down box is set to "This folder, subfolders and files". This
should already be set properly but it is important that you verify this.

9. Click the "Ok" button until you close out all of the security properties
windows. The cursor may present the hour glass for a few seconds as it
applies the permissions you just changed to all subfolders and files.

10. Reboot your computer to assure that these changes have taken effect.

Re-execute the application and it should now work.

Explanation
-----------

If you install Oracle9i Release 2 (9.2.0.1.0) on a computer running Windows
with an NTFS partition, the contents of ORACLE_HOME directory will not be
visible to users who are authenticated on that machine. These permissions
were not set properly when the software was installed.

Applications that were working fine with previous versions of Oracle software
will stop working when they upgrade to Oracle 9.2.

NOTE: The application will continue to work if the user has logged onto the
machine as an Administrator.

Any application that is using the Authenticated User privilege will not work.
A notable example would be IIS which might service some of the requests based
on the Authenticated User privileges.

To demonstrate the problem in further detail, you can log on to the operating
system as an authenticated machine user. You won't be able browse the contents
of the ORACLE_HOME directory demonstrating your inability to load any Oracle DLLs
or make a connection.

Additional Information
----------------------

The above error messages may not only be encountered when using Oracle 9.2
client software but may also exists when running into general permissions
issues using third party products on a Windows platform.

Paul,

I just posted a note and *then* found this message.

It solved my problem for 'Oracle client and networking components were not found'.

Many thanks,
HankC

I have been looking at this discussion with keen interest since I am
having experiencing this problem...
"ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-12705: invalid or unknown NLS parameter value specified"

I would like to try the solution suggested but the entire solion has not
been posted. I cannot seem to create a MetaLink account and do not have
access to the solution.

Thanks

Unfortunately, many companies don't allow actual newsgroup access within
their networks so we are forced to use secondary solutions like
Developersdex and the software they use truncates messages.

In this case your message with the full solution was trucated partway
through step 8 where it was telling how to adjust the security. If you
would be so kind as to repost the rest of the solution from just step 8
on it would be a great help to those of us who are banned from the
newsgroups.
