look for the file by hand. If it is not in /etc/init.d, then it may be in /usr/local/etc/init.d or somewhere in /opt. Oracle have an Ubuntu repository hidden deep in their website, you should use it instead of installing it by hand. As for the configuration, the Web-Config UI tend to fail on Ubuntu, but the database itself work fine.
