Unable to connect to local database... (what hsould i do ?)

Question

hi guys,
I am having this error when i startup my LOCAL database. it says
ORA-00119: invalid specification for system parameter LOCAL_LISTENER
ORA-00132: syntax error or unresolved network name 'LISTENER'
i revert back everything to very very basic.
now in my
LISTENER.ORA
I have only this.
# listener.ora Network Configuration File: C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\NETWORK\ADMIN\listener.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = szejie)(PORT = 1521))
IN my TNSNAMES.ORA
i have got this,
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = szejie)(PORT = 1521)
IN MY pfile or SPFILE, i have got this
*.local_listener='LISTENER'
WHEN I type STARTUP in SQLPLUS, i still got this error
SYS@orcl on 07-MAR-09> startup
ORA-00119: invalid specification for system parameter LOCAL_LISTENER
ORA-00132: syntax error or unresolved network name 'LISTENER'
WILL PMON, automatically register my ORCL service with the the LISTENER ?
What should i do ?
Please help thanks.
Best Regards,

Hello,
Are you trying to register different port than default port 1521?
Do this or take local_listener completly out of your pfile and try with out
Edit your sqlnet.ora and add the value of NAMES.DEFAULT_DOMAIN to the alias in the tnsnames.ora:
set the domain to "world"
*sqlnet.ora:*
NAMES.DEFAULT_DOMAIN=world
init.ora:
LOCAL_LISTENER=LISTENER
In order to resolve this issue with LISTENER, it is necessary to add the domain "world" to the tnsnames.ora file entry
Or Edit init.ora file and remove loca_listener from it.
sqlplus "/as sysdba"
sql> startup nomount pfile='/path_to_pfile/init.ora'; -- it will process all the init.ora parameter and let you know if you have to resolve more
If successfully processed
sql> alter database mount;
sql> alter database open;
Once successfully opened, then shutdown it down
sql> shutdown immediate;
sql> create spfile from pfile='/path_to_pfile/init.ora';
sql>startup;Regards
