It must mean that Your client software (Busines Objects) is established connection with Your Personal Oracle. But user name or password really is wrong. Empty 'database' parameter is correct for Personal Oracle connection. There must be some another kind of message if Your Personal Oracle was not found via SQL*Net (something about 'no listener found' and so on). So check user name and password, also try to start Personal Oracle before trying to establish connection.
