I have set the ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID, path & TNS_ADMIN variables. Still not working. Also, i have started services. I also cannot open the database home page i.e.

127.0.0.1:8081/apex

8081 is the set port.

coudnt understand the problem. Is it the pfile or spfile problem ?

Thanks

has OS Service for the database been started & is now running?

open Command Window & do exactly (line for line) as below

sqlplus
/ as sysdba
startup

COPY the results from above then PASTE all back here

Yes, I have checked OracleServiceXE & OracleXETNSListener in the Services, both have status as started.


The result is

SQL> startup
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel

I have freshly installed oracle 10g on my system. I havent got it run till now.

I have found an alert_XE.log here "D:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\RDBMS\trace\".

Dump file d:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\rdbms\trace\alert_xe.log

I have other databases also installed on my system like SQL server 2008. Is it the cause of the problem or the pfile or spfile are the cause of the problem ?

Thanks

>Where can i find that file ?
I don't know for sure.
AFAIK Windows systems has a "find file" capability.
I suggest you use it.
I do know the correct alert_XE.log file will contain the STARTUP command plus a line containing ORA-03113 error.
IIRC, only singe XE instance can exist on same DB Server system.
Does another XE instance currently exist on this system?

I have searched the alert_XE file through windows search functionality, but i got the same one which i posted above.

>Does another XE instance currently exist on this system?

How can i check this ?

Another strange thing i found in my oraclexe directory. When i installed oracle in my friends system, its size was 1.30 GB but my system's oraclexe directory's size is only 248 MB.

Why is the difference in installation size ? I have properly installed it too.

Also, i have installed it about 4-5 times in my system after reinstalling since it was not working. At first install, it worked fine for a while, but creating problems, so i reinstalled it. Now it is not working at all.

Can somebody suggest my the right solution ?

Thanks
