the question is as above. I used multiply both sides by the integrating factor I(x) and integrate both sides, but this method doesn't work, is there any way to solve this problem?

If $x>0$ just multiply both sides by $x^{-1}$ $$\ln(x)y'+\frac1xy=e^x$$ Which is equivalent to $$\frac{d}{dx}[y\ln(x)]=e^x$$ Then, integration give us $$y\ln(x)=e^x+C,\qquad x>0$$
