re: new SSRS install, works great until I try to access Oracle datasource - System.Data.OracleClient requires Oracle client software


From my desktop the report accessing an Oracle 9i db with no problem.

I've deployed other reports accesing sql server with no problem.

Now I deploy the report and try to access my Oracle source and get:

System.Data.OracleClient requires Oracle client software version 8.1.7 or greater

On the server in question, I know they've installed the oracle client. I can access the db from sql plus with no problem.

As the user that I access ssrs credentials, i remote login and am able to write to oracle home.. C:\oracle\ora10g\NETWORK\ADMIN

i've confirmed my database is in tnsnames and it works from sqlplus.
