Oracle XE 11g the XE database was not found

问题

I am a new one who started to use Oracle Database and faced the problem during installation the last verstion of Oracle XE 11g x64 to the Microsoft Windows 7 x64 Enterprise.

During installation were not any errors and Windows Services (OracleXETNSListener and OracleServiceXE) were successfully created and started.

However, when I try to get the list of available databases I receive an error

ORA-01034: ORACLE not available

For some reason the XE database was not created into %ORACLE_BASE%\oradata\XE.

The content of my listener.ora with localhost:

SID_LIST_LISTENER =
  (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
      (SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
      (ORACLE_HOME = C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server)
      (PROGRAM = extproc)
    )
    (SID_DESC =
      (SID_NAME = CLRExtProc)
      (ORACLE_HOME = C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server)
      (PROGRAM = extproc)
    )
  )

LISTENER =
  (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 127.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521))
    )
  )

DEFAULT_SERVICE_LISTENER = (XE)

I fixed tnsnames.ora by setting localhost IP address:

XE =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 127.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVER = DEDICATED)
      (SERVICE_NAME = XE)
    )
  )

EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
    )
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SID = PLSExtProc)
      (PRESENTATION = RO)
    )
  )

ORACLR_CONNECTION_DATA = 
  (DESCRIPTION = 
    (ADDRESS_LIST = 
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1)) 
    ) 
    (CONNECT_DATA = 
      (SID = CLRExtProc) 
      (PRESENTATION = RO) 
    ) 
  )

sqlnet.ora contains both services:

SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NONE;NTS)

The log file from '%ORACLE_HOME%\server\log\myhost\client' contains this error:

Oracle Database 11g Clusterware Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production Copyright 1996, 2010 Oracle. All rights reserved. 2016-01-20 19:51:43.920: [ default][5096]ut_read_reg:2:ocr registry key SOFTWARE\Oracle\olr cannot be opened. error 2 [
CLSE][5096]clse_get_crs_home: Error retrieving OLR configuration [0] [Error opening olr registry key. Не удается найти указанный файл. ]

How can I find what goes wrong and fix the problem?

After struggling with this problem for almost a week I found a solution, how to make XE database available from this source. It is in Russian, I provide the solution right here in English.

Install the last version of Oracle XE 11gR2 from the Oracle site to the default location c:\oraclexe with default password admin. If not default, then you should edit scripts below (paths and pwd) before use them.
Run cmd command line under administrator privileges and use it until the end of reconfiguration. First of all, set environment variables for your DB:
```
set ORACLE_SID=XE
set ORACLE_BASE=c:\oraclexe\app\oracle 
set ORACLE_HOME=c:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server
```
Delete the XE database by command:
```
oradim -delete -sid XE
```
Delete PWDXE.ORA file:
```
del %ORACLE_HOME%\database\PWDXE.ORA
```

Copy init.ora from %ORACLE_HOME%\config\scripts to %ORACLE_HOME%\database, instead of existing, rename it to initXE.ora and add the configuration below:

open_cursors=300
db_name=XE
control_files=("C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\oradata\XE\control.dbf")
job_queue_processes=4
compatible=11.2.0.0.0
diagnostic_dest=C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\.
memory_target=1G
sessions=100
audit_file_dest=C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\admin\XE\adump
remote_login_passwordfile=EXCLUSIVE
dispatchers="(PROTOCOL=TCP) (SERVICE=XEXDB)"
shared_servers=4
undo_management=AUTO
undo_tablespace=UNDOTBS1
DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST_SIZE = 10G
DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST=C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\fast_recovery_area
#optional
nls_language="RUSSIAN"
nls_territory="RUSSIA"

From the previous cmd line with admin previleges run the command to create Oracle services and file %ORACLE_HOME%\database\PWDXE.ORA:
```
oradim -new -sid %ORACLE_SID% -intpwd admin -startmode auto -srvcstart system
```

Run commands below to stop Windows Oracle XE services, delete them and additional XE files:

sqlplus /nolog
connect sys/admin as sysdba;
shutdown immediate;
exit;
del %ORACLE_BASE%\oradata\XE\CONTROL.DBF
del %ORACLE_BASE%\fast_recovery_area\XE\ONLINELOG\*.LOG

Create two files into one directory:

createXE.cmd

set ORACLE_SID=XE
set NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.CL8MSWIN1251
set ORACLE_BASE=C:\oraclexe\app\oracle
sqlplus /nolog @createXE.sql

createXE.sql

spool %ORACLE_BASE%\admin\XE\CreateXE.log;
connect sys/admin as sysdba;
startup nomount;

spool off;
exit;

Run createdXE.cmd from command line with admin privileges.
Done.
