Listener.ora - ADR_BASE_LISTENER or ADR_BASE_ LISTENER_NAME

I am using Oracle 11g with Linux Redhat.
I have a SID of PR1 and a listener od LISTENER_PR1
In the listerner.ora file what should be th ADR_BASE variable be:
ADR_BASE_LISTENER = /oracle/PR1/saptrace
OR
ADR_BASE_LISTENER_PR1 = /oracle/PR1/saptrace
I also have diag set.

ADR_BASE_LISTENER_PR1 = /oracle/PR1/saptrace
would be correct in this case.
ADR_BASE_<listenername>

Problem is resolved. Thanks everyone.

Local_listener name is different from listener.ora

I'm on 11g R2 solaris10 platform.
lsnrctl status adv_sec_listener2 shows all the correct items I would expect including the Alias = adv_sec_listener2
but when I do lsnrctl status listener_farley it shows the same thing with Alias = adv_sec_listener2
My listener.ora file is set with adv_sec_listener2
In the spfile it has local_listener=listener_farley
I try to edit the parameter and set local_listener to adv_sec_listener2 but I get errors:
ORA-02097: parameter could not be modified
ORA-00119: invalid specification for LOCAL_LISTENER
ORA-00132: syntax error or unresolved network name 'ADV_SEC_LISTENER2'

is your listener registered with all instances in the server? if so, its new from 10g that all instances will listen through one instance
try to see the ouput of
$ lsnrctl status <listener_name>
and check if all instances are shown

I am facing problem when configuring listener.ora and tnsnamess.ora in listener side it is showing The listener supports no services The command completed successfully and in when i cross check with listener from tns it is showing the error

This makes no sense. You don't configure a listener nor a tnsnames.ora "in a database".   I hope this is just a language issue and not reflective of a fundamental misunderstanding of how tns works.

what's the value of GLOBAL_DBNAME in the listener.ora ?

GLOBAL_DBNAME     The global database name is a concatentation of a domain and a database name. The GLOBAL_DBNAME is the same as SERVICE_NAMES parameter in the parameter file or a concatentation of the DB_DOMAIN and the DB_NAME parameters in the parameter file. For example, <SID>.xyz.com. Do not set the GLOBAL_DBNAME parameter in the listener.ora file when using failover / TAF or when using multiple listeners or Oracle Parallel Server. Setting the GLOBAL_DBNAME parameter under these circumstances will disable failover and TAF.from: http://oracledba.ezpowell.com/oracle/net8Listener.html

AC-50480 error while generating listener.ora while running autoconfig

Hi,
I am trying my first clone on R1213. We have a split tier configuration. I am able clone the database server successfully.
Now when I run 'perl adcfgclone appsTier', during the autoconfig part, it fails with the error message AC-50480 : Error while generating listener.ora
I have followed note
AC-50480" Error Generating the "listener.ora" File. [ID 1089036.1]
During Autoconfig "adgentns.pl" fails: "AC-50480: Internal error occurred: java.lang.Exception: Error while generating listener.ora" [ID 453901.1]
derigistered bothe the servers
ran autoconfig on the DB
Verified the contents of FND_NODES table.
Everything looks fine, but it still errors during autoconfig.
There is no listener file under $TNS_ADMIN.
There is tnsnames.ora under $TNS_ADMIN
Any clue?
TIA,

What's wrong with my listener.ora?

Hello.
I must say I've never understood how listener.ora works (it used to work but someone modified it), but by now it'd be enough to know what's wrong with this:
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC2))
(ADDRESS_LIST =

SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = CSR2)
(ORACLE_HOME = /opt/oracle/product/9.2.0)
(SID_NAME = CSR2)
My problem is that when I try to connect from my PC "sqlplus csr_admin@csr2/csr" I get "ERROR: ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve service name"
This is my entry in my local tnsnames.ora:
CSR2.world =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = zippo)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = CSR2)
An this, the entry in the entntry at the server's tnsnames.ora:
CSR2 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = zippo)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = CSR2)

Thanks in advance.

It's funny but the date I posted this topic isn't OK (more than 3 years ago)

I'm guessing that my listener.ora file has a ")" in the wrong place or something to that effect. Would anyone mind pointing this out for me?
Thanks!

normel start ：
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = Myserver)(PORT = 1521))
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC))
you start:
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = webserver)(PORT = 1521))
) )

Listener.ORA file in a RAC environment. VIP used. Is ithis OK

Dear Sirs:
Environment is - Oracle 10G (10.2.0.3.0) running on RHEL 4.0 for Intel Itanium, two node RAC
The listener.ora file is as follows
LISTENER_MYDB1 =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = mydb1-vip)(PORT = 1521)(IP = FIRST))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = *192.168.1.10*)(PORT = 1521)(IP = FIRST))
SID_LIST_LISTENER_MYDB1 =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = /oracle/ora10g/product/1020/db_1)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
INBOUND_CONNECT_TIMEOUT_LISTENER_MYDB1=110I am seeing that the VIP is used. Is this OK or should the public IP be used?? Everymonth during high activity the listener simply refused connection.
Please help.
regards,
Caesar

I am seeing that the VIP is used. Is this OK or should the public IP be used?? yes,its ok to use both.
Everymonth during high activity the listener simply refused connection. whats the error msg you getting ,check log file for more detail.

Change the host name in Listener.ora to fixed IP address

in Listener.ora i want change host name to IP :
==== OLD ====
LISTENER =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL= TCP)(Host=Server)(Port= 1521))
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL= IPC)(KEY = ORCL))
=== WHAT I NEED ===
LISTENER =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL= TCP)(Host=100.100.110.1)(Port= 1521))
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL= IPC)(KEY = ORCL))
how can i do this .

It is not recommended to change the name for an IP addressIt is not recommended by who? AFAIK there is no such sentence in documentation.
But there is other:
host Required. Specify the host name or IP address of the database server computer.
Instad of "It is not recommended..." better use "Consider this..."
, as if ever it changes in the future, you'll have to be back and change once again your ip.The same is truth when we are speaking about FQDN (fully qualified domain name).
How often your company changes the IP adresses on server platform?
My experience from past:
First case:
My company has rebranded and and domain name has been changed but IP has not. Unfortunatelly we were not using OID for resolving. If there were FQDN used then would have to make changes in many files. Fortunatelly we were using IP addresses.
Now we are using OID for resolving of tnsnames (as primary method).
What I want to say is both solutions (FQDN or IP) are fine. Each of them has some advantages and also disadvantages.

Help with listener.ora

I'm trying to set up my linux box so someone can telnet in and run a couple of queries in SQL*PLUS. I have th tnsnames.ora file setup correctly - I think. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do with listener.ora. I know that this file is used by lsnrctl. Can someone give me some help with this? Thanks.

How did u know that your tnsnames.ora works, when you have not setup listener.ora?
Anyway, this might help:

How to flush an instance in the listener.ora file

Hi,
We have Oracle DB server 10.2.0.3.0 running in RHEL4 2.6.9-42. It is a RAC Configured, previously 8 instances. Now we only have seven because we remove the other one; removedserver.company.com
Unfortunately, it was not removed following the correct method because the server was destroyed. We are able to remove it from the list of RAC though using deletenode.sh (in fact it is no longer appearing in +./olsnodes+).
Our problem now is that the instance name is still appearing in our listener.ora file. And I am getting error in alert.log
ORA-00130: invalid listener address '(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=+removedserver.company.com+) (PORT=xxxx)))'
If I will edit the listener.ora manually and removed the instance from there, my problem will be
1. it might be added again in the listener.ora when we do adautoconfig
2. I am not sure of the impact if I will do it manually.
Hope somebody would help.
Thanks in advance.

SQLNET files, listener.ora and tnsnames.ora must be hand edited by the DBA. Services, too, must be reconfigured by the DBA.
The impact of doing it manually is that it works. <g>

Listener.ora - ADR_BASE_LISTENER or ADR_BASE_ LISTENER_NAME
