Windows service does not stop when DB is shutdown from SQL*Plus

2734369Oct 9 2014 — edited Oct 9 2014

I have a 11g XE DB in a Windows 7 machine.

The installation has created a Windows service called OracleServiceXE. It's status is STARTED.

I then login to SQLPLUS as sysdba and do a shutdown immediate;

SQL> shutdown immediate

Database closed.

Database dismounted.

ORACLE instance shut down.

Problem is, when I refresh the services, the OracleServiceXE is still showing as STARTED.

If I use the listener control to stop the listener the Windows service OracleXETNSListener changes status to BLANK.

Why is this?
