It seems to me that is only a hint

The problem ist the ORACLE_HOME variable and the path where the SQLPLUS.EXE are executed. You have in the Home Folder of Oracle App Server a sqlplus.exe und in the database home a sqlplus.exe. If you use the sqlplus.exe from the app server you get the problems. You have installed Oracle 9iAs after the database so the ORACLE_HOME variable points to the ORACLE_HOME of the appserver but there is no database. Set the ORACLE_HOME=database home and be sure that the path points to the sqlplus.exe of the DATABASE installation.

that sould work
