I installed FME 2018 64 bit on my machine that have already FME 2017 32 bit. I have also ArcGIS 10.4.1 32 bits on my machine. Finally, 32 bits Oracle client is installed. 

Right now FME 32 bits version is working, I can create a reader and fetch data from it. 

I was asked to test FME 64 bit version and I cannot connect to the database. 

I have read the link included in the error:

ArcSDE client library location could not be determined. Please ensure that FME and the installed ArcSDE client libraries are both 32 bit OR both 64 bit. Then refer to this article http://fme.ly/8q8 for more details. Please visit http://www.safe.com/support if the problem persists

In the link, doesn't say where it take the 64 bits dll. It's writen to take them in the ArcGIS, i don't see how 64 bits dll version are included in the 32 bits version. 

I'm not sure what do to. 

Thanks

This is exacly the link I clicked http://fme.ly/8q8

 

 

In the link, doesn't say where it take the 64 bits dll. It's writen to take them in the ArcGIS, i don't see how 64 bits dll version are included in the 32 bits version.

@pdubois I think this is the link you are looking for , if your arc is 32bit you need to install 64 bit Background Geoprocessing in order to work with FME 64bit

If you're running the 64-bit version of FME you'll need:

  • 64-bit Oracle client driver, and
  • ArcGIS in a 64-bit version, see the link posted by @ciarab

I think so too, I'm installing ArcGIS Pro now, it seem that it is the version 64 bits. I'm setuping a VM right now with ArcGIS Pro 64 bits, Oracle client 64 bits and FME 64 bits

ArcGIS Pro seem to be 64 bits. I will setup a VM to test a 64 bits solutions.

Yes you will have to go to ArcGIS Pro for 64bit arc or alternatively install the Background GeoProcessing on your 32bit and as David said you need to change your oracle client to 64bit. Then you should be good to go!
