Installing Oracle XE on Offline PC

user-bixxnOct 24 2023

Oracle XE installs and runs perfectly well on my PC when it’s connected to the internet. However, when I either tried to install Oracle XE on a PC that is not connected to the internet or install it in a PC that’s under airplane mode, I ran into the following error message:

{IDS_OracleConfigDIg_NetworkConfigFailedMsg} An error occurred while configuring Oracle XE listener. Check the logs at C:\app\xxx\product\21c\cfgtoollogs\netca and try again”

Looking at the logs, the last few line says these:

[main] [ 2023-10-24 21:07:54.209 SGT ] [ConfigureListener.isPortFree:1407] No IP address returned for host. LAPTOP-EJSE0D3C

I've a development PC at work that cannot be connected to the internet. How can I possibly go about fixing this issue, or is it not possible to install Oracle XE in an offline environment?
