My SQL Server 2019 Enterprise is up and running on a Windows 2019 Core vm. Connections to SQL Server databases are A-OK.
I have installed the OLEDB driver OraOLEDB12.dll via the oui.exe in the ODTwithODAC122011.zip.
I checked only the Oracle Provider for OLE DB in the Component Name list.
It created the appropriate TNSNAMES.ORA file from the info I provided.
The installer added the appropriate paths to the environment var PATH.
After restarting the Windows 2019 Core VM, and reconnecting SSMS v18.8 to the SQL Server I could not see the provider in the Server Objects, Linked Servers, Providers list.
So I ran regsvr32.exe and got back DllRegisterServer in OraOLEDB12.dll succeeded. So I restarted the VM again, and reconnected to my SQL Server and still no joy.
What am I missing here? I've search through lots of google links, on StackOverflow itself and am finding the same results, path issues, registry issues, 32/64 issues. Our Ent SQL Server is x64, our SSMS locally is X64, the Oracle driver is x64.
Did you try to install more than one Oracle client? Oracle OLEDB driver can exist only once (i.e. once each for 32-bit and 64-bit).
Version of Oracle OLEDB driver must match exactly the Oracle client.
Maybe have a look at my Oracle Connection Tester, this may give you an indication whether your Oracle OLEDB driver is properly installed.
Gentlepersons,
My apologies, I did indeed install the 32 bit driver when I thought I was installing the 64 bit.
Have deinstalled (as Oracle calls it) the previous and am moving forward with the correct installation.
Again, my apologies for wasting time.

One of our servers went for a reboot last night after doing OS and SQL Server patching (SQL Server 2016 latest CU). Since then any call to a linked server from the patched server fails with the above error.
Other servers can still connect to the patched server, just outbound doesn't seem to work at all.
We also have an issue with the SQL Server Browser service wont start "stopped unexpectedly", although not sure if its related
Any help greatly appreciated
Microsoft OLEDB Providers - part of the SQL Server Native Client (SNAC) are deprecated:
SQLNCLI10
SQLNCLI11
You need to install Microsoft OLE DB Driver for SQL Server:
MSOLEDBSQL
The switch happened in 2018. You can read about it here:
Announcing the new release of OLE DB Driver for SQL Server
Released: Microsoft OLE DB Driver for SQL Server
Ok people, problem solved.
One of the updates tried to upgrade the OLEDB connectors, ran into a problem and bailed. It had already deleted the DLLs for the drivers though.
Finding the drivers on the Dev server and copying them across solved the issue.
For those bleeding on about SNAC on being on SQL12, that was it's release version. It's been a staple ever since and is installed as standard by SQL16. It's not untill 2022 that it's replaced
I am using the 64-bit version of SQL Server 2016 Express, trying to connect to a 32-bit Pervasive SQL v10 database. I am setting up a Linked Server in SQL Server via ODBC connection, but I am receiving this error that has given me a lot of pain in the past:
The specified DSN contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and Application
I had a similar issue not long ago trying to connect to a Microsoft Access database, but with help here I was able to obtain the 64-bit ODBC driver for Access. However, there does not seem to be one for Pervasive v10 at all, only for PSQL v11+, which does not help me in this case.
Previous question: SQL Server Linked Server to MS Access - DSN Architecture Mismatch Error
So if anyone has a suggestion for connecting to a 32-bit client from a 64-bit SQL Server installation, when there does not exist a 64-bit ODBC driver for this client, please let me know.
One of the suggested solutions was to use an OLEDB link instead (but no details provided on this, and I'm not sure how it would differ from the linked server I am already trying to create, which is already using OLEDB).
There was also mention somewhere of installing an entirely separate 32-bit SQL Express client, and chaining an additional ODBC link to point to the first one, but I would rather avoid all that overhead if possible, especially since this is a production server that is already running Sage 50 in addition to our own software and web services with SQL Server...
Other details: The client that is built on Pervasive SQL v10 that I am trying to connect to is Peachtree 2017 - Sage 50. This is all running on Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard.

Edit:
Thanks for the comments! After further investigation... it looks like this IS actually PSQL v11, not v10. Now, I'm not sure why the 64-bit ODBC driver is not already installed... but I am looking into this now...
I'm using Visual Studio 2015 to create a simple SSIS package. The data source is a DB2 database, and I'm using an ODBC driver on my workstation to connect to DB2. The target is SQL Server 2014.
The package runs fine locally, but whenever I run it on the server, I'm having trouble with the ODBC data source. The driver on the server is the exact same one with the exact same name as the one on my workstation.
To get the package into the server, I've imported the dtsx file into SSIS in Stored Packages. I've also tried to deploy the project to the Integration Service Catalog, but I get one of these failures related to the ODBC source when doing so --
The version of ODBC File Source, clsid {xxx} is not compatible with this version of the Data Flow.
The component is missing, not registered, not upgradeable, or missing required interfaces. The contact information for this component is "ODBC Source;Connector for Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) by Attunity; Attunity Ltd.; All Rights Reserved; http://www.attunity.com
I've also tried using a file based ODBC source instead of a system one with that file in a shared folder on the server. Again, it runs fine in VS but not on the server.
I've looked at the dtsx file (xml based) and I suspect that there is a conflict with the DTSID for the ODBC driver. I'm not sure how that works but it seems like that ID would be unique for each computer and that SSIS is getting is trying to use the workstation's DTSID on the server.
I'm a bit new to SSIS and Visual Studio so I'm hoping I'm assuming there is a straightforward way to run packages developed on a workstation at the server without these hangups. I just can't find anything specific to this problem anywhere.
We do not have VS or SSDT installed on the server.
EDIT: I added a second sentence in the 2nd error message above. It refers a connector provided by Attunity, which is something I don't understand. The ODBC driver installed on the system is from Data Direct. The CLSID returned in the error message is also associated with an Attunity connector in the server's registry.
There are no ODBC drivers from Attunity showing up in either of the ODBC managers, so it's possible that these are somehow part of a default install or were installed when our server used to have SSDT and VS installed directly on it and were never uninstalled. Or, something else?
I have resolved this issue by changing the Deployment Target Version of Integration Services project in VS in my case from SQL Server 2017 to SQL Server 2016 (the target SQL version). Hope this helps. Old quesition, but came up first in google when I tried to solve my problem.
In my case this issue was caused by deploying an SSIS project to a 2016 server using SQL Mgmt Studio 2017. Once I redeployed using SSMS 2016, it resolved the error.
VS or SSDT by default uses 32-bit drivers, so check there is option when you execute for 32-bit. Or install both 32-bit and 64-bit driver and create ODBC with same name.
This is what i do usually for ODBC connections in SSIS -- create connection in both 32-bit and 64-bit.
So create one with
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe (32-bit)
and one with
C:\Windows\System32\odbcad32.exe (64-bit).
I had this same problem when executing my package in SQL Server Agent. I resolved it by turning on the Execution Options "Use 32 Bit Runtime" flag in the agent step. Drove me nuts for a few days, hope this helps.
check the version of your solution vs the SQL version of where you are deploying. I had this issue and matching up versions fixed the problem. My solution was 2017 but the SQL box was 2016. I had to change the solution to 2016. cheers!
In my situation I was having this error and I switched to using the 32-bit version. My initial test worked, then I redeployed using a the project I was working with and I got this error again, even though I had switched Execution Options "Use 32 Bit Runtime" flag.
It ended up that I was having problems with my ODBC Data Source. I was using IBM Informix driver and it was having an issue with the chosen locale. I changed it to use the server's specific local and tested its connection. That then worked and my SSIS package worked on the server.
In another situation with this same Informix driver, I had the database name, slightly incorrect and that gave me this same error.
I am trying to copy data from Oracle to SQL Server 2012, and I get the following message when selecting Data Source as Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle:
Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider.
Oracle client and network components were not found. These components
are supplied by Oracle Corporation and are part of the Oracle Version
7.3.3 or later client software installation.
I tried using .NET Framework Data Provider for Oracle and I get:
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 (system.data.oracleclient).
In SQL Server 2000 (which I am trying to move to SQL Server 2012/2014), I have the option of selection Oracle in OraClienthome directly.
Some additional information that may help diagnose the problem:
Using Toad 64 bit, it points to the 64 bit Oracle download; however, I can not tell if it is using a 32 bit driver or 64 bit driver. I can also run queries, etc. without issue.
ODBC, I can see Oracle when making a 32 (I am guessing) bit ODBC connection named Oracle in OraClienthome, but not in SysWOW64 odbc connection.
I successfully established a linked server connection on a server running 64 Bit SQL Server 2012. OraOLEDB.oracle shows up under Server Objects Linked_Server Providers
While creating an SSIS package, I am unable to establish a connection to Oracle.
I can successfully run queries in MS Access and Excel.
(NEW) I can copy files using Import Export Data 64 bit, but not 32 Bit.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
In many cases the 64 bit drivers are not compatible and you have to install the 32 bit drivers then be sure you are selecting to use the 32 bit drivers if you create a job to run the package which is in the command options as the last check box. I also use toad to pull data from oracle on my desktop and it works fine with the 64 bit driver but on our new server I had to install the 32 bit drivers even though I was able to create odbc connection with connection manager. Also had to reboot win server after instal before I could get it to take.
Try to install and use Oracle Client on the MS site, and transfer the data using SSIS.
I got same problems, but when i've used connection using oracle client (you will see it in connection selection options) all worked ok.
Good luck!
I need to create Link Server in SQL Server 2012 Enterprise 64 using Oracle ODAC.
I have done everything I know, including multiple re-installation of Windows Server 2012 Standard R2 64. The ODAC is also 64bit.
I am able to connect to Oracle 11g using Oracle SQL Developer using TNS as Connection Type.
I am beginning to think this may have something to do with Windows Server. Because I have never experience this issue on other systems not running Windows Server.
I get this error:
returned message "ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified.
Thanks
After combining through hundreds of internet posts and install/reinstall. I discovered the problem was the ORACLE ODAC Components. Every article on the internet tells you to install 64bit ODAC if you are running 64bit database, however, this is not accurate.
After spending two days trying to get this to work, I decided to try the 32bit ODAC and it worked.
In case anyone is having this same issue.
