Need help setting up SSIS in Visual Studio 2008 to Oracle 11g

  • Anybody have good references that can guide me through this process? I'm trying to set up a connection from SSIS VS 2008 selecting ADO.NET/.Net Provider/OracleClient Data Provider and putting in the server name and username and pw and when I click on "Test Connection" I get this message. "ORA-12504: TNS:listener was not given the SERVICE_NAME in CONNECT_DATA"?

    Here's a little context of my set up. My machine is a 64bit and the server that has the Oracle DB is also 64bit. I'm running Win 7 Enterprise. The Oracle server is Win 2008 r2 standard.

  • Did you install the Oracle Client and the ODAC components?

    Did you configure TNSNAMES.ORA?

  • I believe so not 100% sure. How can I verify I did? I can tnsping the Oracle server fine and I have sqldeveloper connecting to the Oracle server from my machine fine. TNSNAMES.ORA on the Oracle server is configured.

  • I got it to work, but now when I try and query the table in Oracle it says the table does not exist? But, I see the table on SQLDeveloper. Anybody know why?

  • Maybe you need to prefix the schema to the table?

  • Found out it was a quoted identifier issue. Needed to write the table with double quotes around it. Interesting thing though is I also recreated the package with a different table name and it worked just fine.

    select * from "test2".
