This section covers the following topics:
5.1 Running the Installer
Most users will install Oracle Database XE by downloading the installation package, extracting the files, double-clicking setup.exe
, and answering graphical user interface prompts as needed.
Note:
- Before attempting to install Oracle Database XE 18c, uninstall any existing Oracle Database XE or database with the
SID XE
from the target system. - Installer will use
SID XE
for database creation. AnySID
other thanSID XE
will not be allowed. - See Migrating Data and Applications if you need to move data from Oracle Database Express Edition to Oracle Database Enterprise Edition 18c.
- See Exporting and Importing Data between Oracle Database XE 11.2 and 18c if you need to move data from XE 11.2 to XE 18c.
To install Oracle Database XE:
Log on to Windows with
Administrator
privileges.You must be part of the
Administrators
group on Windows to install Oracle Database XE. If you are logged in as a domain user, ensure that you are connected to the network. Otherwise, you may receive a prerequisite check failure forAdministrator
privileges during the install.If the
ORACLE_HOME
environment variable has been set, then delete it.Download the Microsoft Windows version of Oracle Database XE.
Extract the downloaded
zip
file to a temporary location. Locatesetup.exe
and double click it.In the Welcome to the InstallShield Wizard for Oracle Database 18c Express Edition window, click Next.
In the License Agreement window, read the text of the agreement and if you agree to its terms, select I accept the terms in the license agreement and then click Next. If you do not accept the terms, cancel the installation and delete the Oracle Database 18c Express Edition software from the computer.
- The installer now performs a prerequisite check to ensure that the version of Windows is supported, that the installation user has administrative privileges, and that there is no
Oracle Database XE
service already created. If any of these checks fail a Prerequisite Checks window will open notifying the user. In that case, cancel the installation, fix the problem, and retry the installation. In the Choose Destination Location window, either accept the default or click Change to select a different installation directory. (Do not select a directory that has spaces in its name.) Then click Next.
In the Specify Database Passwords window, enter and confirm the single database password to use for the
SYS
,SYSTEM
, andPDBADMIN
database accounts. Then click Next.Note:
The same password will be used for these accounts.
Oracle recommends that the password entered should be at least
12
characters in length, contain at least 1 uppercase character, 1 lower case character and 1 digit [0-9]. The password should conform to the Oracle recommended standards. See Oracle Database Security Guide for more information about guidelines for securing passwords.In the Summary window, review the installation settings, and if you are satisfied, click Install. Otherwise, click Back and modify the settings as necessary.
When the installation is complete, the Oracle Database Installed Successfully window is displayed.
Make a note of the connection strings provided for multitentant container database and the pluggable database, as well as the EM Express URL. Click Finish to close the installer.
Configuration, Database Files, and Logs Location
The following table lists important locations such as Oracle Base
, Oracle Home
, Database files, and logs. <INSTALL_DIR>
is the installation directory chosen by you during the time of install. The default installation directory is C:app<username>product18.0.0
, where <username>
is the name of the Windows user performing the installation.
Table 5-1 Configuration, Database Files and Logs Location
File Name and Location | Purpose |
---|---|
| Oracle Base This is the root of the Oracle Database XE directory tree. |
| Oracle Home This home is where the Oracle Database XE is installed. It contains the directories of the Oracle Database XE executables and network files. |
| Database files |
| Diagnostic logs The database alert log is |
| Database installation, creation, and configuration logs. The |
| Software installation logs. |
5.2 Performing a Silent Installation
If you plan to install Oracle Database XE on multiple computers or bundle it with a third-party application, then you may want to perform a silent installation, in which you download the installation executable and run it at a command line using the provided response files.
If you have an existing version of Oracle Database XE, you can save your data by exporting it to data files. After you install the new version of Oracle Database XE, you can import this data into the new database.
To perform a silent installation of Oracle Database XE:
Log on to Windows with Administrator privileges.
You must be part of the
Administrators
group on Windows to install Oracle Database XE. If you are logged in as a domain user, ensure that you are connected to the network.Download Oracle Database XE for Microsoft Windows. Extract the files to a temporary directory.
Open the
XEInstall.rsp
response file and modify the settings if necessary.Note:
For information on response file parameters, see Table 5-2.If the ORACLE_HOME environment variable has been set, then delete it.
Run the installation executable with the
XEInstall.rsp
response file.For example, if you extracted the
setup.exe
executable and theXEInstall.rsp
file to a directory calledxe_temp
, you would enter the following command:After the installation is complete, Oracle Database XE starts.
Response File Parameters
The following table describes the important response file parameters. The parameter value cannot be empty. You must specify a valid value for the parameters.
Table 5-2 Response File Parameters
Parameter | Purpose | Default Value |
---|---|---|
| The install directory location. Replace |
|
| The XE Database password. All users are set with this password. Reset the password immediately after the installation is complete. |
|
| The listener port. |
If listener port is set to |
| The EM express port. |
If EM express port is set to |
| The character set of the database. |
|
Note:
After the installation is successfully completed, the following message is available in the log file that you have specified as the parameter to setup.exe
. For example, c:xe_tempsetup.log
:
MSI (c) (28:B8) [Timestamp]: Windows Installer installed the product. Product Name: Oracle Database 18c Express Edition. Product Version: 18.4.0.0.0. Product Language: [Current Language ID]. Manufacturer: Oracle Corporation. Installation success or error status: 0.

Since silent install runs asynchronously, you can check the log file for the completion status.
If the installation fails, see the following installation log files:- general logs: located at
%Program Files%OracleInventorylogs
- database creation logs: located at
<Oracle_base>cfgtoollogs
Connecting Locally using OS Authentication
When you install Oracle Database XE, your Windows user is automatically added to the ORA_DBA
operating system group, which grants you the SYSDBA
privileges. You can use the following commands to connect to the database. In the commands, replace '<oracle_home>' with the path to your Oracle Home; see Table 5-1 for more details about the Oracle Home:
These commands connect you to the root container CDB$ROOT
of the multitenant database (CDB) as database user SYS
. This method of connecting to the database works even if the Net Services listener is not running.
The Net Services Listener and Default Services
The Net Services database listener for your XE database allows you to connect to the database over TCP/IP from the same machine or other machines on the network. The configuration of the Listener can be viewed using the following commands run from the command prompt:
The output from thelsnrctl
command shows values of a number of important parameters: - the port the listener listens on
- the list of services registered with the listener
- the port EM Express listens on
- the name of the configuration file used by the listener
- the name of the log file
You specify a service when connecting to the database through the listener. The default services created by Oracle Database XE are XE and XEPDB1
. The XE service connects you to the root container of the database (CDB$ROOT
) and the XEPDB1
service connects you to the default pluggable database (XEPDB1
) created at the installation time. For each new pluggable database (PDB) in the database, there will be a new default service created with the same name as the PDB.

Note:
If the Oracle Database XE instance is shut down, thelsnrctl
status command does not show any services you can connect to. Connecting to Oracle Database Using Easy Connect Naming Method
You can connect to the database using the following Easy Connect strings:Multitenant container database: host[:port]
Pluggable database: host[:port]/service_name
XEPDB1
is the service name defined for the first PDB created by default. You can replace XEPDB1
with the name of another PDB you want to connect to.
Specifying the port is optional when the listener is setup with the default port 1521
. You must specify the port number if you use another port.
Connection strings for local connections were provided on the final screen of the install. If you are connecting from a remote computer, you need to provide the hostname (where XE is installed) instead of localhost.
Please note that, Net Services database listener must be running on the database host on the specified port for the connections to succeed.
XEPDB1
using the following commands:Replace dbhost.example.com
with your database host name. If needed, replace 1521
with the port number the listener listens on. You can replace XEPDB1
with the name of another PDB you want to connect to.
To shorten connect strings or to avoid hardcoding host name and port in application code and DBA scripts, you can define an alias for the connect string in the configuration file <oracle_home>networkadmintnsnames.ora
on database clients. See Configuring the Local Naming Method for more details.
