First check your ODBC connection in Windows, to see if that's working. This is likely not to be a QlikView but Oracle issue.

Are you using 64 or 32bits? On my 64 bits installation I encountered a similar problem that was solved by installing a visual c++ library. You might also need to install JDK if you don't already have it. Please provide the error messages you get (for Windows ODBC), for more info.
