Oracle BPEL DB Installation with irca -Failing!!!

Question

Hi all,
I am trying to install Oracle BPEL 10.1.3.1 as a standalone component on Oracle DB 10.2.0. I have set ORACLE_HOME and tested that I can connect to sqlplus using the following option:-
sys/<sys_password>@<service_name> as sysdba
However when I am running the irca option using:
irca orabpel "<ip> <port> <servicename>" <sys_password> -overwrite ORABPEL
I am getting the following exception:-
ERROR: Failed to establish database connection due to the following error:
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
System password for DB is : manager
The DB doesn't contain any 'ORABPEL' user.
Please let me know where am I going wrong?This is really urgent.I have a project delivery.
Thanks.

Is this a Windows install. if so can you run the command sqlplus / as sysdba I suspect you will get the same error.
What did you specify your global name when you installed the database?
you can check this by login as sys or system and run the command
show parameter service
what ever this returns use this as the service name.
I think this is more an listener issue. Here is a typical listener and tnsnames
tnsnames
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl.oracle.com)
listener
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = D:\oracle\product\db\10.2.0)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = orcl.oracle.com)
(ORACLE_HOME = D:\oracle\product\db\10.2.0)
(SID_NAME = orcl)
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC0))
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = orcl))
cheers
