SQL command line appears then disappears

braford_w_byronJul 5 2012 — edited Jul 9 2012

I just installed the 11g version yesterday and am not getting off to a good start; can't seem to run the SQL command line.

When I run SQL command line (Programs > Oracle Database 11g eXpress Edition > SQL command line) it appears for about a second, then disappears
SQL command line worked OK when I first installed Oracle Database 11g eXpress Edition and I was able to connect as "SYSTEM", but not after rebooting.

Same goes for the Get Started web page; I am now getting "could not connect to 127.0.0.1:8080" when I go to Programs > Oracle Database 11g eXpress Edition > Get Started.
Start Database seems to work OK.

When I run SQL*Plus or Oracle SQL Developer I am getting "ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified" so that's not really an option right now.

Any thoughts on how to get SQL command line working? OS is Windows XP, 32 bit.
