I just finished installing Oracle 9i with the OUI, runInstaler. When I try to lauch a listener:
-----
LSNRCTL> start LISTENER
Starting /home/oracle/OraHome2/bin/tnslsnr: please wait...
LSNRCTL>
----
----
I reinstalled the Oracle 9i DB, and this is what I got, in the listener.log file:
Error listening on: (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=IPC)(KEY=EXTPROC)))
TNS-12542
TNS-12560
TNS-00512
Linux Error: 98 Address already in use
-----
Any ideas what this is all about ? why it is not working ?
I invoke LSNRCTL, when I type status, I get the following twice:
-----
Connecting to (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=IPC)(KEY=EXTPROC)))
TNS-12541: TNS:no listener
TNS-12560: TNSrtocol adaptor error
TNS-00511: No listener
Linux Error: 111: Conneciton refused
-----
Any ideas what this might be ? How can I solve this ?
When I type status after a start, I get this:
-----

Believe me, that advice has just fallen on deaf ears. After spamming dbaclick, he's over here spamming this site with the same inane questions. "I've installed Oracle whatever on my Linux server (did I say it was Linux yet?), and the display on my monitor is dim. Should I try installing a patch?"
I am a newbie with Oracle.
It might be true that I ask a lot of questions.
I have a lot of stuff to learn and read about that does not make sens to me at first.
I am reading the literature that was pointed out to me.
There is so much information to digest...........
I hope that by posting + the reading I can get to understand my system and difficulties to get me going.
I find it ironic that you would ban a person with such an interest in Oracle. Let me mention that some of the problems I am experiencing are very difficult for a beginner like me to crasp.
My posting and susequent replies have been a greath help to me so far, I wish I can count on your continued support.
