So use SQL*Plus since it works.

This is one of the most basic errors around.
Did you try to Google for the error?

There must be something like the following image in your TOAD version:

/forum/fa/4488/0/

/forum/fa/4488/0/

Could you change it (as if I set something different than "XE") and try again?
