Getting MAPVIEWER-05501 Map tile layer not found error !

Question

I keep getting an error messages basically saying that the application cannot find my
map tile (or map cache) layer. It seems to be looking for it using "datasourceName.CacheName".
I must be usiing the wrong attribute or identifier for this but don't know where to look to
see what it is currently set to.
Looking for a method to trouble shoot this error and fix it.

Look in the MapViewer Admin console's Manage Map Tile Layers page i.e. host:port/mapviewer/faces/admin/admin_ds.jspx
You should see entries for existing data sources and tile layers like
Name      Data Source     Base map     Zoom levels     Internal     Tile width     Tile height     Online
DEMO_MAP     MVDEMO     DEMO_MAP     10     true     256     256     true
If the data source and map tile layer name combination you're using is not there then one has to be created.
Assuming the base map is defined click on Create to create a new tile layer.
If you're using the mvdemo.dmp sample dataset there are an additional step required after importing the dmp file.
i.e. run mvdemo.sql as the map tile layer instances are created by this script.
