Scenario


I am trying to install Informatica Server and client 9.0.1 64bit on my Windows 7 64 bit operating system. I have my Oracle Server 64 bit also on the same system. I try to configure the Power Center Repository Services after the Informatica Server Installation but Im getting the error

Solution

Now in order to configure the Power Center Repository and Integration Services, there are few things we have to make sure. However in order to configure the Power Center Repository Services we should also install Oracle Client 32 bit in the same machine. The reason is Informatica can talk to the server only through the 32 bit Client machine.

So
a. Install Oracle 32 bit client in your system . For the downloadable click below

 Oracle Client 11G R2 32 bit

a.1 When installing the client make sure you choose the second option Administrator to get the path to store the tnsnames.





b. After installation copy the tns names. ora from the server to the client.

c. Make sure that the Client path has been set in the PATH Varible in the Environment Variables.

d. Restart the system and Configure the Power Center Repository Services again
