Oracle Database Discussions

Hello group!

Since a few days I'm a proud user of OpenSuse Linux 10.2 and I'm lovin' it!
After using open source software under Windows, just to get used to these
programs, I finally made the switch! I've installed almost all software and
didn't encounter any problems, accept for one!

I work a lot with Oracle-XE and want to use it under Linux also, of course.
On the command line I've installed the database with the 'RPM' command and
also filled out all the parameters (e.g. port for homepage).

After installation I got the message that this was successfully done, but
when I clicked on the 'Go To Database Homepage' shortcut I received this
message: "Unable to connect. Firefox can't establish a connection to the
server at 127.0.0.1:8080".

Can somebody point me in the right direction for getting this to work?
Apache is installed and all of my virtual servers are working, so this
can't be the problem. Or...? I also temporary shut down Suse Firewall, but
the result remained the same.

I hope you can help me solve this problem, because I haven't got a foggiest
clue what I am overseeing here. Thanks a million for your help.
