Also looking at other oracle setup, you might need following enviroment 
variables:

ORACLE_SID, ORACLE_BASE (parent for ORACLE_HOME), USERPWD (this can 
be defined in backend too, but takes username/password) and ORACLE_HOME

Some of these are set by the backend, others are not. By the looks of it,
the username,password and database is set. Rest is up to you. 

So you should check that ORACLE_SID, ORACLE_BASE and ORACLE_HOME are correct.
