Silent install results in an idle instance

User_E84GSApr 13 2023

I followed the steps in the docs to do a silent install of 23c, https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/oracle-database/23/xeinl/installing-oracle-database-free.html#GUID-46EA860A-AAC4-453F-8EEE-42CC55A4FAD5

After running /etc/init.d/oracle-free-23c configure everything looks ok

Database creation complete. For details check the logfiles at:
/opt/oracle/cfgtoollogs/dbca/FREE.
Database Information:
Global Database Name:FREE
System Identifier(SID):FREE
Look at the log file "/opt/oracle/cfgtoollogs/dbca/FREE/FREE.log" for further details.

Connect to Oracle Database using one of the connect strings:
Pluggable database: localhost.localdomain/FREEPDB1
Multitenant container database: localhost.localdomain

But when I login I have an idle instance. With 21XE I get a running instance…
