It isn't working for me; I get this error:

Listening on: (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=ipc)(KEY=EXTPROC_FOR_XE)))
Error listening on: (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=noloman)(PORT=1521)))
TNS-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist
 TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
  TNS-00515: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist
   Linux Error: 110: Connection timed out
No longer listening on: (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=ipc)(KEY=EXTPROC_FOR_XE)))

I have been looking in http://ora-12545.ora-code.com/ and http://www.davidpashley.com/articles...e-install.html but I still haven't solved the problem, because I'm sure what to do

When are you getting this? During install?
What does your /etc/default/oracle-xe look like?

It's not possible for some to start oracle with

/etc/init.d/oracle-xe start

Doing

/etc/init.d/oracle-xe restart

usually works though.

This is my /etc/deault/oracle-xe:

# ORACLE_DBENABLED:'true' means to load the Database at system boot.
ORACLE_DBENABLED=false

# LISTENER_PORT: Database listener
LISTENER_PORT=1521

# HTTP_PORT : HTTP port for Oracle Application Express
HTTP_PORT=8080

# Configuration : Check whether configure has been done or not
CONFIGURE_RUN=true

By the way, I can start oracle with /etc/init.d/oracle-xe start and restart works too, but I'm getting that same error when I try enter in http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex

Are you running apache?

I had the same problem (or similar) a few weeks ago. I had to do a new installation of Ubuntu anyway so when that was finished I installed Oracle before Apache and everything worked. Might be something, might be nothing.

[DreamerHxC]

No, I'm not running Apache

Maybe there is a problem with your tnsnames.ora

Let us have a look.

It's located in

/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/network/admin

on my installation.
