Upgrading Oracle Application Express to 5.0 on Ubuntu 14.04

So I got Oracle 11gR2 installed on my headless Ubuntu 14.04 LTS machine and noticed Application Express was version 4.0.2.

Oracle’s instructions for upgrading seemed straight forward so I ran with it.  I received no errors but was unable to access /apex/apex_admin.  I came across this post which uses a different approach to loading the images so I gave that a shot.  Since 11g was a fresh install with nothing to loose I wiped everything and started from scratch.  Unfortunately I found myself in the same position, unable to access /apex/apex_admin.

After some searching, I discovered it was as simple as allowing external access.

After executing the following command, I was up and running with Application Express 5.0.3

EXEC DBMS_XDB.SETLISTENERLOCALACCESS(FALSE);
