Oracle.ManagedDataAccess.dll not loading with core 2

[harperd]

I am using Core 2 with the beta 2 version of the DLL and it's not loading for me (even with Copy Local = Yes). Is there a away to get this to work?

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: 'Could not load file or assembly 'Oracle.ManagedDataAccess, Version=2.0.12.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89b483f429c47342'. The system cannot find the file specified.'

Can you check your .deps.json file (i.e. WebApplication.deps.json)? It may be missing a dependency reference to ODP.NET, which means you are running into this ASP.NET Core issue.

If this is the issue, you can add the ODP.NET reference to the json file to fix the problem.

I faced the same issue and using the nuget package fixed it.
