How to install and configure Oracle 10g Express Edition on Fedora 11?

708968Jun 25 2009 — edited Jul 18 2009
Hi everyone!

I have recently installed Oracle 10g XE on my Laptop Gateway T-1625, which has Fedora 11.
I followed the install instructions on [http://st-curriculum.oracle.com/tutorial/DBXETutorial/index.htm] , and configured the server as explained, but something is wrong... When I try to go to the database home page http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex, I get "Failed to Connect" on Firefox 3.5b4... I don't think it's because of the Firefox version because it's proved to be very stable (for a beta).

I've search for similar issues on GNU/Linux and I found this thread in these forums: [ http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=915218&tstart=0] , but the solution is for Ubuntu 9.04, and if it's possible I would like to know a specific solution for Fedora 11.

I also tried to see the oracle server status with:

# /etc/init.d/oracle-xe status

And I got this....

I hope someone can help me out and guide me on the right direction. Thanks a lot!
