TNS-1190 despite listener password

Hi,
we are migrating from em 11g to em 12c. Now we are getting listener error TNS-1190 "trc_directory (TNS-1190),. Please check log for details. ". As per note 1399060.1 I set listener password and changed "Monitoring Configuration" in oms but the same error still occurs.
When I execute "show trc_directory" from shell everything works fine:
oracle@orarac11g:~ $ lsnrctl

Thanks in advance

Hi
I suggest first check you listener log. If you still see messages "trc_directory * 1190", you have not fixed the problem with your listener password.
If you setup the listener password properly on the server, you need then to place it in the listener config on OEM side.
Go to Listener Menu ->Target Setup -> Monitoring Configuration and place the password in "Listener Password" field. Then save the config.
and see again. if it does not help try to reboot the agent.

Setting an Oracle TNS Listener password

Im trying to enable a TNS Listener password on a database that I am monitoring through UNIX.
I have tried set current_listener, but lsnrctl only recognizes the listener on my machine.
Do I have to find the machine (remotely or not) where the listener is configured?
Each time I try, I get TNS-01101 error : could not service name
(I have already doen this successfully on my own machine, but I have to do the same for one of the databases in our firm)
Thanks.

This error means that the service name could not be resolved by name-lookup. Verify the listener.ora is properly configured, check the name and address defined either in listener.ora or in the tnsnames.ora file.

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

Dear All
I am using Oracle8 Enterprise Edition Release 8.0.5.0.0 on Windows XP
My problem is that
When I tried to stop listener by using lsnrctl80 stop it gives me the subjected error,
while when I stop the listener from Windows Servcies it stops successfully.
Plz note that when I start listener by using lsnrctl80 start it starts successfully.
Following is the information of listener.ora

I did not find the exact solution on the suggested site. only found the Error Code and description.
Then I searched on Google.com and found following result which has successfully solved my problem.

Regardless of how you enter the password, through a single line or on the prompt, the change will not be successful. To change the password, you have to remove the line passwords_listener in the file listener.ora and then change the password.

Listener passwords

In
http://www.petefinnigan.com/weblog/archives/00000639.htm
Pete is worried about listeners with no passwords.
Why cant the XE install script set a password for the listener.?

While I generally agree with Pete, at this time I have two reactions:
1) Look at the number of listener problems we have in the beta. Do we need the added complexity right now?
2) The password is not for accessing the listener, but for accessing the listener control facility with which you make configuration changes. It seems to be designed for protection in remote administration environments.
I have often wondered how critical the listener password is in an XE environment, when appropriate lsnrctl useage (at least in Linux) can be controlled by ACL. For example - on my system, without a password a non-DBA user would see:
pops@fuzzy:~> lsnrctl stop

Oracle listener password

Hi,
I have set password for listener in 9i database (9.2.0.8).
Password is prompted during stopping the listener but not during starting the listener. Below are the steps followed to set password for the listener,
LSNRCTL>set cur LIST_TESTDB
LSNRCTL>change_password
LSNRCTL>set password
LSNRCTL>save_config
$lsnrctl stop LIST_TESTDB
TNS-01169: The listener has not recognized the password.
LSNRCTL>set cur LIST_TESTDB
LSNRCTL>stop
(the listener stops successfully)
$lsnrctl start LIST_TESTDB
(the listener gets started successfully).
How to enable the password protection during starting the listener.
Regards.

TNS-01151: Missing listener name - APPS_VIS

Hi,
We completed the installation of E-BIZ Database and Application onto separate VMs via Oracle's eDelivery templates. Both new VMs are up and running per the OVM Manager.
However, we are not able to connect to the eBusiness Application. Per the e-Business Suite Rapid Install guide, we should be able to verify installation by accessing:
http://<host name>.<domain name>:<HTTP port>/OA_HTML/AppsLogin
We receive a HTTP Internal Error when trying to access this.
Numerous verification steps have been performed including:
- Testing network connectivity (ping) between APP VM and DB VM using the hostname
- Checking that the tnslsnr on DB VM is listening on port 1521, which is what was also configured for APP VM
- Checking that the httpd on APP VM is listening on port 8000
I am unable to run lsnrctl to check the status - how should my profile be set to be able to run this as I receive: lsnrctl: error while loading shared libraries: libclntsh.so.10.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I have also included adalnctl.txt log from the E-BIZ Application Server. I'm not sure whether the LISTENER.ORA on the APP or DB server should be updated. And if so what should it be updated with?

Just a follow-up to this thread. We have now been able to start and successfully login to the e-Business Suite.
The source of the problem was in the installation of the e-Business Suite (via template) - it previously never completed successfully due to:
1) DNS - No DNS has been setup with the new virtual hosts as this is simply a prototyping activity. We found that it initiates connection with DB host during installation and will not complete successfully if one is not found. Furthermore, the /etc/hosts file is wiped of existing entries and replaced just with the host of the e-Business application server everytime ebiz_1211_reconfig.sh is run. Workaround is to login to the host during the reconfiguration and update the /etc/hosts file just after it instantiates the static IP address
2) Apps Password - The application could not startup as it was connecting to the database with a locked out user account. It uses the 'app' user to login to the DB - hence the apps password set during the e-Business application installation must correlate with the app user on the database - in this instance we kept it as apps/apps
After resolving the above issues we are able to connect through the web URL to e-Business Suite.
My next question is, assuming our database instance is called 'VIS', why is adalnctl trying to look for APPS_VIS in the listener.ora? I read
Thanks.

Setting up Listener Password for Oracle 9.2.0.7

I am looking for information on configuration needed for "stopsap" when password is set up for the 9i listener.

Hi Inho,
When a listener password is set, you don't need a special configuration to start/stop sap.
The password is to protect the listener operation, not the connection to it.
It's started with the ora<sid> user before the sap instance starts, and stopped after it stops.

JC Llanes.

Setting listener password in oracle 8i

i have some very old windows databases that are 8.1.0.7. I am not able to upgrade these.
I am trying to set a password.
1. go to command line
2. lsnrctl
3. set password <password>
LSNRCTL> set password l1stener1$
The command completed successfully
LSNRCTL> save_config
Connecting to (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(
21)))
No changes to save for LISTENER.
The command completed successfully
LSNRCTL>Why does it say nothing to save?
3. When I type status
I get: Security: off
How do I verify that there is a password? I can't turn the listener off. Its a production database.
When I look in my listener.ora file, it does not appear to be getting updated with a password?
Edited by: Guess2 on Sep 30, 2009 12:20 PM

First: Always test in a test environment before doing it in production.
Next: If you are very brief, you can stop and restart the listener without interupting service.
The only people who might be affected would be someone who happened to be attempting to connect at the split second your listener is down. Otherwise, existing connections should not be impacted. But, do NOT do this in production (never, ever, ever). Got it?
Finally, if you have set the password, changed the password, and saved your configuration, you should be able to look into your listener.ora file and see the password setting. It should look something like:
#----ADDED BY TNSLSNR 30-SEP-2009 15:41:13---
PASSWORDS_LISTENER = 9BD20802761D432E
There are numerous sites discussing listener passwords.
Do a search on "lsnrctl set password"
Hope that helps...

Listener password - good or bad idea?

Hello
We have recently been audited on one of our Oracle databases (10.2.0.4). One of the recommendations is that we apply a password to our Listener.
I’ve looked at some of the Oracle documentation & checked a few references on the web. What I’m picking up is contradictory. One site (http://andrewfraserdba.com/2007/05/24/listener-passwords-always-for-9i-never-for-10g/) explicitly says do not set a password for Listener in Oracle 10 (unless you need to) because it makes the system less secure. This is also my reading of Metalink 260986.1 (“In Oracle 10g and newer versions of the listener, the listener is secure out of the box. There should be no need to set a listener password to prohibit privileged LSNRCTL commands from being executed.”)
On the other hand the Oracle 10g security guide does explicitly say that a password should be applied (“Protect the listener with a password" p. 2-7). Though it doesn’t go into detail on this point.
Does anyone have any comment on this – I prefer not to apply a password as long as the system remains secure mainly because it’s just another thing to manage.
Any advice appreciated.
Chris

That portion of the 10g guide wasn't updated as it should have been.
You could log an SR with Oracle Support. I am sure that they will refer you to the Notes already mentioned.
The 11gR2 guide doesn't have such a statement. The 11gR2 Net Services Administrator's guide even goes on to say that a listener password is deprecated.

Hi,
Did you check whether the windows service for listener is up and running? if not please start it, by typing "services.msc" in run window and start the service. Then check whether you have listener.ora file in $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin and also post listener.ora contents.
Regards,

Listener password

Once u set up a password on the listener, how do you code it exactly on the listener utility to start a listener with a password? lsnrctl: start listener password
I tried above, it doesn't work. (vs. 9i)

A password isn't required to start the listener, even after setting a password. Just type lsnrctl start from the OS command line and this will start the listener. To stop the listener you will need to give the password. For example from the OS prompt:
lsnrctl
- once in the listener utility type:
set password
- you will then be prompted for a password
Password: <enter your listener password>
stop

My Time Capsule (gen 3) is being hacked via Wi-fi despite WPA2 password changes, anyone else?

I have a recent 1 TB Time Capsule (gen3) that is now being hacked into via wi-fi on a regular basis. I can't seem to stop it despite repeated password changes. The hacker seems able to re-enter witin minutes of a password change on the TC. And even if I manually disconnect the TC from the ISP's cable modem. Hence the hack seems to be via wi-fi. Computer passes anti-virus scans from several different brands. Traffic doesn't seem to show up in Little Snitch. Am thinking that someone has developed a new way to crack Apple's encryption for the Time Capsule. This may be a vulnerability in the new June update for TC. Anyone had a similar experience? Hacker appears as a new connected PC under "Shared" in Finder's side bar.

Exactly what are you seeing that causes you to suspect that the TC has been hacked? Unplug your Xerox devices and see if the mystery device disappears from the network. Also be aware that all network devices, including network printers, can be hacked.
If someone has cracked the WPA2 encryption so that they can read your wifi traffic they would have to be within wifi range, which means they're very close to you. That would allow you to create a short list of neighbors who have that kind of technical skill or give you an opportunity to glance through the windows of the cars parked within wifi range of your home to see who's sitting in there with a laptop.
Otherwise, if your network is compromised, it's more likely that you have a hacked computer on your network that gives the hacker access to the TC through the LAN.
