Oracle Database Express Edition 11g Release 2 for Windows OS won’t start

Asked By Joshua Y Roush 0 points N/A Posted on - 06/24/2013

Hello,

I have installed Oracle Database Express Edition 11g Release 2 for Windows OS. It created a shortcut icon on the desktop but as I click this icon I saw this error message. I re-checked the details and all the details were correct but it still showed me the same error. How to fix this error? Any suggestion would be helpful.

Thanks.

Error Message: Windows cannot find ‘http://127.0.0.1:%HTTPPORT%/apex/f?p=4950’. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.

If you are using 64 bit OS then it might be the problem because it is not officially supported.

Else if you are using 32 bit OS then check out following solution.

Go to Oracle installation drive go to this path oraclexeapporacleproduct11.2.0server and click on the file Get_Started and choose properties, there change the %HTTPPORT% generally it is 8080 and final url will be like this

There is a most helpful solution for this problem but you have to carefully follow the instructions mentioned below.

In this situation it would be enough to replace +%HTTPPORT%+ with +8080+ and your link “Get Started” would show like that

If this will not be a helpful then you can try the following two commands as output
