This is follow-up to earlier an question.

With the default installation of PowerServer from PB 2017 Universal, I get an error creating native Oracle datasource with 32-bit client (from full Oracle client install, not instant client):

"Testing Data Source juvn_dev failed: Attempt to load Oracle client libraries threw BadImageFormatException. This problem will occur when running in 64 bit mode with the 32 bit Oracle client components installed."

New Questions:

How do I install 32-bit PowerServer?  I tried to uninstall and then re-install from the PowerServer_86 folder, and it tells me to use the Autorun, but Autorun does not give me the option to choose 64-bit or 32-bit.  I assumed that since it installed to Program Files(x86) it installed as 32-bit.  How do I tell whether it installed as 32-bit or 64-bit?

If I must install as 64-bit, how do I tell it use the 64-bit Oracle client (Oracle Home)?  I need to have 32-bit Oracle client on my PC for the regular PowerBuilder client apps.

Thank you.

Hi Gary,

Please try the following steps to install the 32-bit PowerServer on 64-bit OS:
Step 1: Delete the ’PowerServer_x64’ Folder from the installer folder.
Step 2: Change the ’PowerServer_x86’ Folder Name to ’PowerServer_x64’.
Step 3:Run Autorun.exe.

Regards,
Ken
