Siebel Offline Database Migration - Oracle

I have one machine with Siebel installed and a mobile database extracted for offline use. I need to backup the database from this machine and migrate it to a new machine with Siebel installed. The user should then be able to log into on the new machine and access their database.

I am copying the following over

C:\Program Files\Siebel\8.0\web client\LOCAL\dicdata.dat
C:\Program Files\Siebel\8.0\web client\LOCAL\sse_data.dbf
C:\Program Files\Siebel\8.0\web client\BIN\mwc_storage.cfg
c:\Program Files\Siebel\8.0\web client\LOCAL\Inbox
c:\Program Files\Siebel\8.0\web client\LOCAL\Outbox

When I log in Siebel offline on the new machine I get the following

"the user id or password that you entered is incorrect. please check the spelling and try again"

This is what I am now investigating. Thanks

Siebel Version 8.0
Thanks

Have you confirmed the path to local db is exactly the same on all the machines? It seems unlikely this is the issue since if not found Siebel should prompt you if you want to download a local database.

When moving my local db to another machine I have never moved anything but the dbf.

Tablet OS could be in an issue here.
