LISTENER_XE

G BMay 20 2026

The conversation below in relation to LISTENER_XE is very interesting.

I too, have the same issue with LISTENER_XE - password.

I set up Oracle 21c express and left it installing. When I can back it was all installed.
Sqldeveloper was executed. No problems or additional passwords being required.

I entered by SYS /SYSTEM password. Which i saved on my list of passwords.

When creating another connection used this password and set up the new connection (Yes, this did work). However, LISTENER_XE does not allow me to enter that password or just to hit enter.

I have checked the directories and cannot find any documentation to suggest if there is a default LISTENER_XE password.

Could there be an issue with LISTENER_XE password setup?

Everything else works.

Please advise.
