Getting ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified with OU 1.6.1.23.x patch

When installing the OU 1.6.1.23.x everything installs fine until we start the application using the ODP connection.

We are getting an ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified.
When only reinstalling patch OU 1.6.1.21.24 everything works fine. Patch 1.6.1.23.0 or 1.6.1.23.1 gives an ODP connection error.

However, there are no new requirements in software (.NET, Oracle Client 11.2 etc.) that have not been confirmed.
