Get started link does not work in oracle 11g server

Question

I have started using Oracle database server on Windows 7 64 bit OS and I have encountered the following error.

\"Error- Windows cannot find \'http://127.0.01:%HT         


        

Answer 1

The correct solution is to match the entries in the file:

C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\network\ADMIN\listener.ora

(the entries with the --> mark)

:

LISTENER =

(DESCRIPTION_LIST =

(DESCRIPTION =

  (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))

--> (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))

--> (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myserver.company.com)(PORT = 1521))

)

)

:

With the entries in the file:

C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

(the entries with the --> mark)

:

--> 127.0.0.1 localhost

--> 1.2.3.4 myserver myserver.company.com

:

Finally, under Administrator account do:

C:> lsnrctl stop

C:> lsnrctl start

Solved. No need for changing name, no drag & drop.

Answer 2

You can directly go to http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=4950 and you will get Home Page Of your Oracle Database

Or you can make a new shortcut icon and set it's url to the previous link

Answer 3

Check your antivirus program, some of these softwares block the ports, unblock them, there you go it works!

Answer 4

This article works for me: https://orlandoolguin.wordpress.com/2012/06/10/configuracion-de-apex-en-oracle-11g/

Maybe you need unlock the anonymous account to start Apex. Use this code on cmd:

C:\oracle\product\11.2.0\db_1>sqlplus / as sysdba

SQL> alter user anonymous account unlock; 
User altered.

If doesn't work, you can try previous steps defined on the article.

I hope you solve this issue.

Answer 5

Using localhost instead of 127.0.0.1 worked for me.

Answer 6

Type to your browser address bar

http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=4950

You must change port number 8080, only if you did select different HTTP port during install
