Recreate ORACLE XE Listener service

does anybody know how i can recreate the service for starting the XE Listener?

Have you tried entering 'lsnrctl start' from the command line?
It comes as a surprise - the information is in the documentation. You will find the correct information in the Platform Guide for Windows (the DBA supplement for Windows DBAs)
The specific information is at http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/10gr2_db_single/install/asminst/asminst_otn.htm

Listener service stopping periodically

Hi all,
My Oracle 10gR2 listener service has been stopping periodically around 9.00am every monday for the past 4 weeks now. I checked every log files (alert log, listener log, OS SuSE Ent Linux log) and nothing was reported. Once I restart the listener service, every thing will be back to normal.
Has anyone exprience this before or anyone has an idea on what is happening?
Regards,

Hey
maybe it will give you a hint when you enable the listener tracing:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/network.102/b14212/troublestng.htm#i423150
and check this metalink Note: 340091.1
have you clusterware (check with crs_stat -v -t) or RAC installed?
Regards

Oracle TNS Listener password

Where do I specify the tns listener password in CF MX. I have
added a password to the oracle TNS listener service. I need to get
MX to pass this password to the oracle server. Is there a place to
do this.
cfk

Here is what I was given from our security group here at
USDOJ:
We are using 9i,
Server Product ColdFusion MX
Version 7,0,2,142559
Edition Enterprise
Serial Number
Operating System Windows 2003
OS Version 5.2
Description:
A Oracle TNS Listener has been detected on the host with
login security disabled (SECURITY=OFF).
Observation:
Oracle is an enterprise level database which is available on
many different platforms.
A configuration vulnerability exists within the Oracle TNS
Listener which allows remote unauthenticated access. The TNS
Listener accepts a clients request and establishes a TNS
(Transparent Network Substrate) data connection between the client
and the service. A TNS connection allows clients and servers to
communicate over a network via a common API, regardless of the
network protocol used on either end (TCP/IP, IPX, etc). A default
installation of the TNS listens on TCP port 1521.
Vulnerable Systems:
Oracle 8i
Oracle 9i
Recommendation:
It is recommended to only allow certain IP's or subnet ranges
to access the TNS listener. This can be done by adding a rule in
the firewall. We also recommend that you enable a password for the
TNS listener within Oracle

NOTHING UNUSUAL IN ANY OF THE WEBLOGIC LOG FILES, EXCEPT THAT IT STATES

Any help much appreciated

Further to the above post, I thought I'd simplify my Apex Listener install just to see if I can connect to it via SQL Developer
So downloaded the latest version 2.0.8 and decided to configure and run the Listener on my pc whilst still connecting to the same database.
Operating system : Window 7 Pro 64 bit
Oracle Apex Listener 2.0.8
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_25-b17)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.25-b01, mixed mode)
Went through the configuration as above, once started I tried again to access the listener via SQL Developer. This time I received this output from the listener:
INFO: Error: ORA-02291: integrity constraint (APEX_040200.WWV_FLOW_RT$APPROVALS_SGID_FK) violated - parent key not found, occurred during execution of: [CALL, insert into wwv_flow_rt$approvals (user_name,status,client_id,security_group_id,created_by,created_on,updated_by,updated_on) values(/*in:user_id*/?,/*in:status*/?,/*in:client_id*/?,/*in:tenant_id*/?,upper(/*in:user_id*/?),/*in:created*/?,upper(/*in:user_id*/?),/*in:created*/?), [tenant_id, in, class java.math.BigInteger], [client_id, in, class java.math.BigInteger], [user_id, in, class java.lang.String], [status, in, class oracle.dbtools.rt.oauth.ApprovalRequest$Status], [created, in, class java.sql.Timestamp]]with values: [adminlistener, APPROVED, 3858401374580004, -1, adminlistener, 2014-06-23 12:19:18.785, adminlistener, 2014-06-23 12:19:18.785]

Oracle 10g TNS listener service

Hi Friends,
I have installed Oracle 10g in my windows
vista. When i try to start TNS listener through services window
manually, it is giving the below error.
"windows could not start the OracleOraDb10g_home1TNSListener service

If you have an idea about this please help me out. I need to solve it
immediately. Please respond for this as early as possible.
Thanks,

sridharWhy are you reviving a thread that has been dormant for 18 months and had nothing that looked at all like your problem?
Anyway ...
First, Is your client (from which you are running sqlplus) on the same machine as the database? If not, it will never connect as 'localhost' is a non-routable address.
Second, which version of windows is your database on?
Third, we see what your listener and tnsnames files look like, but that's not the whole story. Show us the results of :
c:> lsnrctl status(Use copy and paste to show us the full command and response from a command prompt)
Fourth, read my standard explanation and see if it leads you to any clues.
=================================
A couple of important points.
First, the listener is a server side only process. It's entire purpose in life is to receive requests for connections to databases and set up those connections. Once the connection is established, the listener is out of the picture. It creates the connection. It doesn't sustain the connection. One listener, with the default name of LISTENER, running from one oracle home, listening on a single port, will serve multiple database instances of multiple versions running from multiple homes. It is an unnecessary complexity to try to have multiple listeners or to name the listener as if it belongs to a particular database. That would be like the telephone company building a separate switchboard for each customer.
Second, the tnsnames.ora file is a client side issue. It's purpose is for address resolution - the tns equivalent of the 'hosts' file further down the network stack. The only reason it exists on a host machine is because that machine can also run client processes.
Assume you have the following in your tnsnames.ora:
larry =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myhost)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = curley)
)Now, when you issue a connect, say like this:
$> sqlplus scott/tiger@larrytns will look in your tnsnames.ora for an entry called 'larry'. Next, tns sends a request to (PORT = 1521) on (HOST = myhost) using (PROTOCOL = TCP), asking for a connection to (SERVICE_NAME = curley).
Where is (HOST = myhost) on the network? When the request gets passed from tns to the next layer in the network stack, the name 'myhost' will get resolved to an IP address, either via a local 'hosts' file, via DNS, or possibly other less used mechanisms. You can also hard-code the ip address (HOST = 123.456.789.101) in the tnsnames.ora.
Next, the request arrives at port 1521 on myhost. Hopefully, there is a listener on myhost configured to listen on port 1521, and that listener knows about SERVICE_NAME = curley. If so, you'll be connected.
What can go wrong?
First, there may not be an entry for 'larry' in your tnsnames. In that case you get "ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified" No need to go looking for a problem on the host, with the listener, etc. If you can't place a telephone call because you don't know the number (can't find your telephone directory (tnsnames.ora) or can't find the party you are looking for listed in it (no entry for larry)) you don't look for problems at the telephone switchboard.
Maybe the entry for larry was found, but myhost couldn't be resolved to an IP address (say there was no entry for myhost in the local hosts file). This will result in "ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist"
Maybe there was an entry for myserver in the local hosts file, but it specified a bad IP address. This will result in "ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist"
Maybe the IP was good, but there is no listener running: "ORA-12541: TNS:no listener"
Maybe the IP was good, there is a listener at myhost, but it is listening on a different port. "ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error"
Maybe the IP was good, there is a listener at myhost, it is listening on the specified port, but doesn't know about SERVICE_NAME = curley. "ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor"
=====================================

Oracle Listener service not starting.

Hi,
Windows 2003 Oracle 10.2. and ECC 6.0
TNS Listener service is not starting and giving below Error
"The OracleTST102TNSListener service on Local Computer started and then stoped. Some services stop automatically if they have no work to do, for example, the performance logs and Alerts service.
Please help me.
Thanks

Thanks warren
This is not a new installation. I was running SGEN Tcode. I stopped the transaction and wanted to start it again, it gave an ABAP DUMP error. After that i had restarted the Server at OS level. From then onwards the TNS Listener service was not starting.
But the problem is resolved. The problem was with the IP Address. It was changed and the entry was not present in the Host file. So i have made an entry in the hostfile and started the TNS Listener service, it worked.

Oracle XE Listener Requiring Service To Be Set To 'Automatic (Delayed Start

Can anyone offer any insight/explanation as to why the Oracle Listener would require the service to be set to 'Automatic (Delayed Start)' When it is set to just automatic, it does not even try to start. No output to the listener log, and nothing to the event viewer. It is as if it never even tries to start. Once switched to 'Automatic (Delayed Start)' it works as expected. Additionally if you manually start the service due to it not starting automatically, it works fine as well.
OS: Windows 7 64BIT
Service is being run by the local system account and is set to allow to interact with desktop. -Local system account is part of the administrator group.

OS: Windows 7 64BITFirst point, win7 isn't on the 10g XE "supported OS" list. The installer is nearly as old as Firefox 1.0. Not to say folks haven't been able to get it working, plenty of other threads cover that topic.
Delayed start, auto start ... how critical is that functionality for your install? My suggestion, set it to Manual, and if you need the database, start the listener and then start the database service. If the database isn't needed keep your RAM and system resources available for other stuff.
Sorry can't be more helpful (esp. for win7, don't have it, don't use it, same for vista) but XE is more of a "playground" environment for test drives, kicking the tires, etc., a practice resource intended as an introduction to managing an oracle instance.
And always start the listener service first, that allows the database to register with the listener as it completes its startup processing. If startup goes the other way around, the Apex might not be immediately available, but a sqlplus system connection and `alter system register;` command will fix that.

Start and Stop Listener service -Oracle 10g

Please, How I can stop and start listener service? My question is because I have "Oracle Instance" Oracle NT Service" in start up options in manually (i need to have them in way).
Platform: Oracle 10g.10.2.0.1.0 / Windows XP Professional.

If I understand your issue....
C:\> net start <listener service name>
and
C:\> net stop <listener service name>
where <listener service name> is exactly the service name you see in Services panel.

Problem removing Listener Service in Clusterware 11g

It appears that I already have a listener service as shown below, and I am having problem removing this service so that I can create another. I know that I can just add a new listener service for each node, though if anyone would share some insight on how I can remove this listener service ofr Oracle 11g Clusterware with two node cluster, I would appreciate your insight. Thanks

Hi, Is there any tnslsnr process running on the node. To understand the problem better, enable the debug trace for the .lsnr resource. You can enable trace by executing the following command as root.
crsctl debug log res "ora.rac1.LISTENER_RAC1.lsnr:5"
crsctl debug log crs "CRSRTI:1,CRSCOMM:2,OCRSRV:4"
Try to stop the listener.
Examine the log files under CRS_HOME/log/$HOST/crsd/* and CRS_HOME/log/$HOST/racg/*
Thanks & Regards

In oracle 10g is the same Oracle Net Listener than...?

Hi forum members again I'm vey new in oracle server10g, this time I have a doubt about oracle components , that is the same the Oracle Net Listner than the Oracle SQL*Net listener, if is not the same, please tell me the diference
Thanks in advance

SQL*Net has gone through a few minor revisions over the years.. We've seen SQL*Net Version 1, SQL*Net V2, Net8, Oracle Networking and now (in 10g) Oracle Net Services.
It's exactly the same, only different.
Not surprisingly, Oracle actually documents the differences in their documentation which is freely available for all to read.
If you want some information about what's new in Oracle Networking, I encourage you to read the introduction section of the "Oracle® Database Net Services Administrator's Guide (10g Release 2 (10.2))" titled "What's New in Oracle Net Services?"
Reading that will not only give you a better understanding, but also justify the jobs of the technical writers who create over 55,000 pages of information for our use. <g>

Oracle 10g Listener XP pro need to be restarted ...

Hello all.
Here is my problem. I have oracle 10g installed on a computer with Windows XP pro Sp1a. Every thing work fine despite 1 point. When the computer is restarted, a small software starts the different Oracle Services (Oracle Database Service and listener) and wait for the 2 services to be in the state "started". After startup, the two services are in the state "started" but, sometimes, I can not get connected to Oracle. In the listener log, I have a message "TNS-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor".
To solve the problem, I have to restart either the listener service or the oracle service or both of them.
My problem is that this computer must be an "auto starting system".
What can I do to solve this problem ???? Is there a specific order to start the process ?, Should I put dependency between them ???
Thank for your help.

If you use, as I think, dynamic service registration (no SID_LIST in Listener.ora for your DB), then it would be better to start the listener before the Database. If not, the registration could take a few seconds (or minutes). Anyway, if this is the problem, you should be able to connect after a few seconds (or minutes).

Problem With Listener Service: Long Delay Starting Listener, Intermittent Connections

I am having trouble connecting to my Oracle database. I'm not sure what the cause was, but now when I connect to a database that has been working fine for the past two years, I usually get a ORA-12541 error.
I run lsnrctl status on the server and get a prinout like this:
Copyright (c) 1991, 2010, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Connecting to (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=dqaswn02)(PORT=1521)))

TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
TNS-00511: No listener
   64-bit Windows Error: 2: No such file or directory
I've also tried manually stopping the service via services.msc and then restarting via lsnrctl start, but when I do this I get a really long delay (10+ minutes) before it returns with something like:
TNS-01153: Failed to process string: 0í≈♥
I'm pretty lost as to what is wrong. I've been messing around with listener.ora, but I don't see anything problematic in there. Here's a copy:

LOG_FILE_LISTENER = LISTENER
TRACE_LEVEL_LISTENER = SUPPORT
TRACE_FILE_LISTENER = LISTENER
However, a few times during this I've been able to connect to the server, via sqlplus, but it has taken 10 minutes before the connection comes online. Once I'm connected, I can query my tables as expected, but I need an application to connect.
If anyone has any ideas on what could be wrong, please let me know.

When I opened up netca, I didn't have any listeners configured, which seems very strange. When adding it, I get this message in the cmd window:

I killed the service via services.msc again and tried starting the lsnrctl. This time I've got a new listening service going:

Listener Service Blocked

Oracle 10g on Windows Server 2003
One Listener Service with Two instances
I understand you, the reader, may have some experience working with Oracle Servers and I am hoping you may be able to shed some light on my current issue.
I have Oracle 10g Version 10.1.0.2.0 Standard running on Windows Server 2003 SP2. There are multiple database instances; as you know each instance has a SID, its own service “OracleService<SID>”, memory space, files, configurations, etc.
Each database runs though the same listener with an individual listener service.
There are now six databases on the system (mastsch1, indosch1, bathsch1, bathsch2, bathsch3, and bathsch4)
The most recent database, bathsch4, is a clone/copy of bathsch3.
I chose to use the Database Administrator Console to Clone an existing database (bathsch3) to create a new database (bathsch4).
What I ended up with was a single listener service “bathsch4” reporting two instances “bathsch4” READY and “bathsch3” BLOCKED.
I’ve checked lsnrctl services and status to gather this information, validated the PATH, and registry settings, and tested resolution of TNSPING which all report the same issue.
Issue 1:
I need assistance in understanding how exactly to alter “bathsch3” so it runs again in its own listener service “bathsch3” and is no longer BLOCKED.
Thankfully, all of the other databases (mastsch1, indosch1, bathsch1, bathsch2, and bathsch4) are running correctly.
I walked through many scripts and diagnostics to get were I thought stopping and starting the service would bring me back to completion, but ended up after a system cycle back to the same problem, so I’ve clearly missed something.
In the process of researching this issue, I found that my listener.log had grown exponentially and was at 700 MB already. The majority of this log was the windows service “OracleServicebathsch3” attempting to connect to the database.
I shutdown the database and stopped the service which drastically reduced the rate of growth.
Issue 2:
I need assistance in understanding how exactly to set up the listener.log to either rollover or truncate after 20 MB.
If you believe you are capable of provide me with any helpful guidance? Please do so, I am happy to answer any question and provide every bit of information you feel would be of assistance.
Thank you,
James

Thank you for your response - I will definitely attempt your suggestion for item 2.
With regards to item 1, it appears that I'm not explaining the listener issue well enough.
On Windows Server 2003 R2 with Oracle 10.1.0.2.0 Standard running if you were to check the listener status, I appear to have only one listener with the correct endpoint.
If you check the listener services you will see that one listener service, with the name of the new database, is listed as having two dependent instances, the original database, bathsch3, and the new database, bathsch4.
The original database, bathsch3, is blocked.
I need guidance on how to uncouple the original database, bathsch3, from the “bathsch4” service and get it back on its own service.
To follow is a run of the listener status in case it helps to “see” what I am saying.

HELP! Oracle FailSafe - Listener fails when adding standalone database

Well, I have a cluster of two nodes with the following specs:
(1) an Oracle 10g database each
(2) Microsoft Cluster Service (MSCS)
(3) Windows Server 2003 64-bit edition
(4) Intel Itanium Processor
(5) Oracle Failsafe 3.3.3 for Windows 2003 64-bit
The 64-bit Oracle Failsafe doesn't come with Oracle Failsafe Manager, so I used a Failsafe Manager remotely from another clustered servers. The version is also 3.3.3, but it's running on a Windows 2000 Advanced Server.
Well, after connecting to the 64-bit cluster, I added the standalone database to a Cluster Group. There are two cluster groups on the Server:
(1)"Cluster Group" (the default cluster group created by MSCS); containing an IP address, a network name, Oracle Cluster Services, and the Quorum hard drive.
(1)"ORACLE DB" A cluster gropu I created for the database; containing another IP address, a network name for the IP address, and every hard drive volumes of the database files.
The database currently resides on the Node 2 (because I created it there). I have successfully verified the database (using "Verify Standalone Database" option). BUT when I added the database into the cluster group ORACLE DB, it failed with the following message:
23 20:48:48 ** ERROR : FS-10066: Failed to start Windows service OracleOraDb10g_home1TNSListener for the Oracle Net listener
When I opened the Windows Event Viewer, apparently the Listener Service had started, but it soon "terminated unexpectedly":
At first, the Listener Service appeared to be started:
But this is what happened next; it seemed the Listener Service terminated abruptly after entering the running state for a very short time:
What happened? What should I do? What is the problem? Many thanks!
PS: the following are the messages from both Verifying Standalone Database and Adding Standalone Database. The verification was successfull, but I just failed to add the database:

Oracle 8i Listener Vulnerability

Hey
I have read about the Oracle 8i listener vulnerability that if it is not password protected then denial of service attacks can occur along with other threats as well. this can be done through the lsnrctl utility but i was thinking how can this utility be used remotely to administer the listener. because to use it someone has to be an oracle user on the operating system for example unix. can someone guide me about this

Hey
I have read about the Oracle 8i listener
vulnerability that if it is not password protectedSomeone accesses the oracle admin user on one machine and switches to another machine, often in an insecre network there will be no challenge to accessing the second machine. Thus break into one, you break into all.
This just provides another layer - ensures the listener (which, if properly configured will handle ALL databases on the machine) from being shut down without authorization.
