- by tsegay
I have installed oracle 10g on a ubuntu 10.x, This is my first time installation. After installing I tried to start it with the command below.
tsegay@server-name:/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin$ lsnrctl

my listener.ora file looks like this:
# listener.ora Network Configuration File: /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/network/admin/listener.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
)
)
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = acct-vmserver)(PORT = 1521))
)
)
I can guess the problem is with permission issue, But i dont know where I have to do the change on permission.
Any help is appreciated ...
