Yes, That is what it says:

That is interesting. But usually any Win32 application should work on a Win64 
system. Right?

As far as I can remember, the OSGeo4W installation comes with OCI.DLL. 
Unfortunately I don't one installation at hand. But, have you tried to force 
GDAL tools to use the OCI.DLL from the XE installation instead?

I know that is not the same situation you have, but when I need to run GDAL 
build for Win32 on my Win64 machine I need to place an OCI.DLL from a 
InstantClient-32 first on my PATH. Otherwise it will try to load the default on 
DLL my system, that happens to a Win64 OCI.DLL.

In that situation I recall vaguely that the operation system doesn't give you 
any clear error or warning message and the connection fails when you try to run 
the command. Just like you are seeing.

Have you tried the GDAL installation pack from http://www.gisinternals.com/sdk  
? You can download and install for example, gdal-110-1600-x64-core.msi and a 
gdal-110-1600-x64-oracle.msi.

BTW. It doesn't matter if the server is 32 or 64. What is important is that 
GDAL and the OCI.DLL are on the same architecture.

Ivan
