Oracle connection error

I am getting oracle error while trying to establish a connection to my oracle database. I have installed Oracle client 32 & 64 bit version on my system and tried resolution methods available on SAS support but no good.Please find the attached image and help me with the resolution. Thanks.

Very hard to tell from this, but it seems that something is missing, or wrongly configured.

So I just can point to the install and post install configuration doc, be sure that you have done all the steps (both in SAS and Oracle client, environment variable settings etc).

Perhaps talk to SAS tech support if you don't manage to progress this on your own.

Have you tested the Oracle client by itself? You should be able to go into the SQL Plus client and successfully run an SQL query. If you can't then the client isn't set up correctly.
