There is no point in using oracle client compiled for x86 on x64 system unless you have to, although it shouldn't really cause troubles as long as it works - client communicates with server using net8 protocol, the server doesn't require the client to use same architecture.

One more question,
Since I'm on windowsx64, I should use PHPx64, Apachex64, Oracle Instant Client x64 and the VC redistrubatle x64 right? Or should I be using an Oracle Instant Client x32?
Thanks.

Hey Chad,
I installed php 5.4 instead and downloaded another oracle instant client from the Oracle web site. (I doubt the dll are corrupted). Now that I'm trying with the Light Instant Client (originally used the Basic Client), I received an error with a different dll:
Faulting application name: httpd.exe, version: 2.4.4.0, time stamp: 0x5127dda0 Faulting module name: OraOCIICUS11.dll, version: 11.2.0.1, time stamp: 0x4eb213ce
By the way, this error occurs right after I enter the information concerning the database during the wiki installation. I have successfully installed MediaWiki on a 32 bit OS but it now needs to go on a x64. If anyone has experienced the same and found a solution, please inform me.
Thanks again for feedback. Pat

Hey Guys, Is there a 64 bit version of Mediawiki? I'm trying to install it using php5.5-x64, oracle 10gR2 (instantclient x64-11.2) and apache 2.4.4-win 64 but am getting errors when mediawiki tries to connect to DB. I'm not getting much info on the error beside: Faulting application name: httpd.exe, version: 2.4.4.0, time stamp: 0x5127dda0 Faulting module name: OraOCIEI11.dll, version: 11.2.0.1, time stamp: 0x4eb21384 Exception code: 0xc0000005 It feels like mediawiki is trying to access a 32bit version of the OraOCIEI11.dll... So has Mediawiki been compiled with 64 bits before? Thanks.
MediaWiki should work just fine on 64-bit (and we do it on WMF).
Much more likely is problems with PHP 5.5 and/or the Oracle client for 64-bit. We've got known problems with 5.5 & MySQL (unrelated to your problem), so using 5.3 or 5.4 might be a better route for now.
