Unable to connect to 11g Release 2 (11.2) XE with browser or SQLDeveloper

user2074871Aug 7 2017 — edited Nov 22 2017

I just now installed 11g XE, a "stock" installation with all the defaults.

no errors noted during installation. all services appear to be running.

Trying to access the server from the local machine.

I can access the database ONLY through SQL command line.

I cannot access via SQL developer.

usinglocalhost:1521 and the SID of "XE", gets an ORA-1205 TNS;listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptor

using a service name of XE, gets an ORA-12514

I cannot access via web browser.

gets a "page not found"

no problems connecting with SQLPLUS

WIndows 7

tons of memory, CPU, disk, ....

a fresh installation, no other oracle products were installed onto this machine. nothing was done except to follow the install directions.

any ideas of what to check? or where to see any additional error messages?
