I give a brief idea on what is the problem -
One of our clients wants to upgrade from Oracle 9i client to Oracle 10g. We
are part of team where we are supporting the .Net applications. We have a
existing web server in QC lab where Oracle Client 9i has ben already
installed. We would like to know whether we really need Oracle Client install
on the web server?

I am looking for the answers for following questions -
1.  The applications are making use .Net Framework Data Provider for oracle
as well as Oracle Data Provider for .Net. Do we really need Oracle Client to
be installed on the web server?

I had an impression that it should not?

I would appreciate if some can clarify.

Thanks

Both of these require the Oracle Client.

I am still not clear.

To clear my question -

I have setup oracle 10g database server and if I am running a windows
client application built with .net framework 1.1 on a remote machine which is
connecting to this database server.

Question -
If I am using Microsoft's Data Provider for Oracle then what softwares are
required to be installed on client computer?

Thanks,
Dinesh

You need to install the Oracle client software. The Oracle client software will need to be installed
on any computer where you are attempting to establish a connection to Oracle. If it's a web app it
needs to be installed on the web server. If it's a desktop app then the Oracle client needs to be
installed on the machine where the desktop app is running.

I went through the oracle web site and found that there is also Oracle Data
Access Components available which installs all the drivers and client files
for connecting to the oracle database.

Have you come across this?

Thanks,

ODAC will install the necessary Oracle client side components.
