The 'VFPOLEDB.1' provider is not registered on the local machine

On 64-bit Win2008 Server, ASP.NET web page can display this error message even if Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro 9.0 is properly downloaded and installed.

In my case the solution was simple: open Advanced Settings of the DefaultAppPool and set "Enabled 32-Bit Applications" to True. That of course assumes that ASP.NET application runs in the DefaultAppPool.
