    You can add the used service name to the oracle database, or modify the entered value ‘OracleServiceXE’ to the correct value ‘XE’. The entered value looks a lot like the default windows service name and could be confused with the Oracle database service name.

    To change the current instance service name to OracleServiceXE:

    alter system set service_name = 'OracleServiceXE';

    lsnrctl services

    should also show the service name after wards, unless the database instance is in restricted state, in that case the connection using a service name will fail.
