ORACLE OLEDB issue

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We have installed the SAP PI 7.0 in our Server.

One of our application needs oleDB Provider which is not part of custom ORACLE installation of SAP PI 7.0.

Shall we install oraOLEDB provider separately and whether this installation will affect the existing oracle installtion of SAP PI 7.0 in anyway?

Kindly advise us on this issue.

Hi sasitharan,

the OleDB Provider is part of the Oracle client software.

It is not used by SAP Software but it won't affect your SAP system if you install the provider on the server where your application runs.

Note: it's not necessary to install it on the Oracle Server itself - it's just a client interface for your application.

Regards,

Lars
