   OK, I have solved my problem and thought I would let others know if anybody faces the same problem.

   Basically, I followed the steps given in:

<URL: http://groups.google.com/groups?q=ORA-12560+debugging&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&safe=on&selm=vGCV9.318%24I9.21410908%40newssvr15.news.prodigy.com&rnum=1>

   For some reason, I could not log in as system/manager, but then the regular login started working (which was all that I wanted).

   Thanks to the original poster of the above.
