Oracle Service Instance Error

 Also, I am using Oracle 11g Enterprise Edition, instead of Express Edition as mentioned on the following link: http://community.k2.com/t5/K2-blackpearl/Creating-and-Configuring-an-Oracle-Service-Instance/ta-p/72362

Is it really necessary to have Express Edition?

A couple Ideas... 

1) Do you have the Oracle Client installed ?

2) Can you connect using the Oracle SQL Developer directly instead of ODBC ?

3) Nah... Oracle Express Edition is not required is the same as the Professional is just your Client setup.

That should get you some troubleshooting pointers...

Oracle Client: Oracle 11g Enterprise Edition

I can connect through SQL Plus, already installed on the server.

I have all the pre requisites mentioned here: http://community.k2.com/t5/K2-blackpearl/Creating-and-Configuring-an-Oracle-Service-Instance/ta-p/72362

but still can't create the Oracle Service Instance.

What I dont have are the services shown at that link because the Oracle data base is on another server, so no need to have those services here too.

1.  I assume the 'SourceCode.SmartObjects.Services.Oracle.dll' assembly, also exists in the 'C:Program Files(x86)K2 blackpearlServiceBroker' directory.

2.  Please right click on this file, and check its 'Properties" if there happens to be an 'Unblock' option, please do so and retest.

3.  I assume the odac was intalled with:

"install.bat all c:oracle odac"

4.  Was the server also restarted after installing the ODAC?
