For me, it was a matter of switching items on the PATH environment variable. i.e. I placed this : C:\Oracle\product\11.2\bin; before this:C:\Oracle\product\12.1.0\dbhome_1\bin; These path parts will be different for different companies. There is then a requirement to remember to switch items on PATH back to use Oracle 12 again.

I had a similar problem. The underlying issue was that my platform target was Any CPU. There were two solutions that worked for me:

  1. Changed the platform target to the CPU of the existing (and only) oracle client you have on the target, x86 in your case, or
  2. Installed the oracle client that was missing, msdora.dll for x64 in your case.

I think IIS is deciding which (x86 or x64) msdora.dll it will use because of the Any CPU platform target compilation. You have to either take away IIS's choice or provide it all the answers.
