I learnt that pl-sql developer doesn't work with oracle 64-bit client so now i have both 32-bit and 64-bit clients installed on my machine and my ORACLE_HOME variable points to 64-bit client. I am not able to start pl/sql developer even i specify the 32-bit client in Tools->Preferences of pl-sql developer version 8.0.4.
Maybe you are using the 64-bit version of PL/SQL developer and a 32-bit Oracle Client. If so, the fix would be to switch to either a 32-bit version of PL/SQL Developer or a 64-bit Oracle client.
@maniA: I would recommend to install both since the one program needs the 64-bit version and the other the 32-bit version. Just download the client tools from the Oracle website.

If it is a 32-bit version of SQLPlus, you'll see a process on the Processes tab that looks like this: sqlplus.exe *32 If it is 64-bit, the process will look like this: sqlplus.exe
2 I am facing to this problem so many times till I have 32bit PL/SQL Developer and 64bit Oracle DB or Oracle Client. The solution is: install a 32bit client. set PLSQL DEV-Tools-Preferencies-Oracle Home to new 32bit client Home
The problem has been solved. Actually, the issue was that the PL/SQL was 64 bit and the client was 32 bit that's why I had to download and install a 64 bit client which I installed and set the path to it's oci.dll file and that's solved my problem. One more thing I need to mention is that I have also created an environment variable for TNS_ADMIN and set the path to the folder which contains ...
