Just deinstall and reinstal... while installing give system name as ur host name and keep that default port as (such i.e 5001) after giving these host name and port.Open repository administration console and create repository that time it will ask u user name and PWD thats is ur oracle account and give connectiong string as ORCL this is default,regards,RMA

Hi Ram,

You could first go to repository manager give relational connection and then you could configure server add new and give details.Give port name as defined in the  configue repository server and then call for resolve the server ip it will give ip , specify the server path where you want to have details of log files.
