Oracle XE - Just can't login after install

828505Jan 4 2011 — edited Nov 29 2011

On Lubuntu 10.10, I did:

echo "deb http://oss.oracle.com/debian unstable main non-free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update ; apt-get install oracle-xe

That brings me Oracle XE 10.2.0.1. And then:

/etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure

Everything looks ok, including the password prompt and so. After that, I go to http://127.0.0.1:port/apex, and when I try to login with the username "SYSTEM", and the password I just typed. I get a "Invalid Login Credentials" error.

I also tried:

sqlplus /nolog
CONNECT
[ .. login and password .. ]
ERROR:
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied

Setting the environment variables also don't help.

sh oracle_env.sh

Well.. I just don't know what's happening. I repeated this procedure trying to find peculiar things, but always got the same results. Also tried some other users as "SYS". useless...

Thanks in advance.
