A user is getting the following error when attempting to connect to an Oracle database through an Oracle Forms app. I also get the same error when I try to connect from their computer using sqlplus.

ORA-12514: Message 12514 not found; product=RDBMS73; facility=ORA

There are two Oracle clients on the machine, one for 8 and the other for 10g. The forms runtime is installed in the Oracle 8 client's path. I've set the path to include only Oracle 8 in the path, and the ORACLE_HOME is set to 8's home. The connection details in the tnsnames.ora (both of them) are correct.

When I try tnsping, that returns successfully.

Any ideas?
