Latest version of Delphi XE2 was Update 4 Hotfix 1.

That you use?
I had no problems with it and Oracle Database Express Edition 11g Release 2.

At last. After installing Update 4 hitfix 1 everyting backed to normal.

Thans for advice. Problem solved.

Sorry for drilling this issue to the limit, but HotFix did not solved problem - there was no problem on Delphi side, but with the oracle client.

I have used 10.2.0.3 client, and after putting instant client 10.2.0.4 into my application - it started to work. After more digging I found, that problem was not exactly with oci.dll itself, but with missing oraociei10.dll.

So. Problem is solved definitely and finally.

HI, i have same problem...
now i'll show you how to resolve them.
1. Download oracle instant client for your oracle version.
2. copy all .dll files from instant client folder to win32/debug (your .exe files project).
3. configure your Zeosconnection with this:
a. hostname: (null) don't fill anything.
b. database: your_server_ip/XE (127.0.0.1/xe).
c. library location: just fill oci.dll, not full path.
d. port: 1521 (default is 1521)
e. user: your_user
f. Password: your_password

now, try to connect. if this didn't resolve your problem, contact me on Abdi.p43@windowslive.com. Thankyou
