Create an user from the existing user.

Question

Hi All,
Recently i have created one user from the existing user in a different server.
Oracle version :10.2.0.1.0
I have granted the similar roles same as in production.
In Production:
SQL> select granted_role,grantee from dba_role_privs where grantee in ('TRADELOANS');
GRANTED_ROLE                   GRANTEE
RESOURCE                       TRADELOANS
CONNECT                        TRADELOANS
In Test:
SQL> select granted_role,grantee from dba_role_privs where grantee in ('TRADELOANS');
GRANTED_ROLE                   GRANTEE
RESOURCE                       TRADELOANS
CONNECT                        TRADELOANS
But the user complained that he is getting error like 'user lacks CREATE SESSSION privilege'. He also says he is able to connect to production but for the test he is getting that error
Can anybody let me know where i have done the mistake?
Regards
Arun

Hi Kamran,
I listed the roles given to the user in my first post. I have granted connect and resource role to the user.
and it is same in production also. But the thing is why he is able to connect to production and not for test?
