5213: Bad Oracle login error in OCISessionBegin() while running ttcacheuidp

Question

Hi,
I am working on Oracle TimesTen Client: Oracle TimesTen 11.2.1.8.0
I am following this step: http://download.oracle.com/otn_hosted_doc/timesten/1121/quickstart/html/admin/cache_grid_create.html
I am in the step 4: 4. Associate the Oracle Cache Administration user with the Cache Database
And I got this error:
Command> connect "dsn=cachedsh_schema;uid=cacheadm;pwd=cacheadm;oraclepwd=oracle";
Connection successful: DSN=cachedsh_schema;UID=cacheadm;DataStore=/u03/TimesTenCache/datastore/cachedsh_schema;DatabaseCharacterSet=AL32UTF8;ConnectionCharacterSet=US7ASCII;DRIVER=/u01/app/oracle/product/TimesTen/ttscofield/TimesTen/ttscofield/lib/libtten.so;PermSize=768;TempSize=256;TypeMode=0;OracleNetServiceName=SCOFIELD;
(Default setting AutoCommit=1)
Command> call ttcacheuidpwdset ('cacheadm','cacheadm');
5213: Bad Oracle login error in OCISessionBegin(): ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied rc = -1
5935: Could not validate Oracle login: uid = CACHEADM, pwd = HIDDEN, OracleNetServiceName = SCOFIELD, TNS_ADMIN = "", ORACLE_HOME= "/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2/db_1"
The command failed.
What seems to be the issue?
I referenced this link: http://download.oracle.com/otn_hosted_doc/timesten/1121/doc/timesten.1121/e13069/proced.htm#TTREF237
And on the notes it says:
Notes
This procedure cannot be called from a Client/Server connection.
This procedure is available only for IMDB Cache.
The cache administration user ID and password cannot be set while either the cache agent or the replication agent are running.
The cache administration user ID cannot be reset while there are ASYNCHRONOUS WRITETHROUGH cache groups or AUTOREFRESH cache groups (with a state that is not equal to OFF) on the database.
What does: This procedure cannot be called from a Client/Server connection mean?
Is this the root cause of the problem or I am missing a step?
Thanks!

I still get the same error. But I have figured out what is wrong. Just in case other users encounter the same errors, here's what I did:
I created a tnsnames.ora file in my TIMESTEN_HOME/network/admin that has the connection info to testenv Oracle instance. +(i dont know if this is necessary)+. Then:
[oracle@testenv ~]$ ttmodinstall -tns_admin option
TNS_ADMIN for the instance 'testenv' is currently not set.
Would you like to change TNS_ADMIN for this instance? [ yes ]
Please enter a value for TNS_ADMIN (q=quit)? [ option ] /u01/app/oracle/product/TimesTen/testenv/TimesTen/testenv/network/admin
Do you want to restart the daemon using the new configuration? [ yes ]
Restarting the daemon ...
TimesTen Daemon stopped.
TimesTen Daemon startup OK.
Instance testenv is now configured with TNS_ADMIN=/u01/app/oracle/product/TimesTen/testenv/TimesTen/testenv/network/admin
