Upgrade to APEX 4.2.1 in 11g XE

Question

Hi all.
I tried to upgrade APEX to 4.2.1 in my recently 11g XE installation.
Is default tablespace sysaux? Installation was fine AFAIK trying to follow the official installation guide, but broke my oracle installation once finished (ora error, no data) and a reinstallation was needed.
I have 11g installed at default oraclexe folder.
Regards.

Really, it's so hard to upgrade it?
