I am trying to install Oracle 18c XE on a Windows 10 PC, running the 1809 update. The PC is an HP with 16 GB of RAM and 4 processors.
I read the thread started by user 3905002. I am having the same problem -- XE installation stops at about 95% complete based on the progress bar. I did some digging, and in the <oracle_base> \diag\rdbms\xe\xe\trace folder I see the alert_xe file. It has the following sequence of entries after running overnight:
Errors in file C:\APP\use\PRODUCT\18.0.0\diag\rdbms\xe\xe\trace\xe_mmon_8812.trc (incident=10474) (PDBNAME=CDB$ROOT):

And so on. It appears the install process is hung, trying to wake up and continue about every 2 to 10 minutes.
Is this the same problem user 3905002 is having? Do you need any more data on my issue?
Many thanks,
Al in Vegas
