Help!
I've recently installed Oracle8i personal edition on to my PC at home. I'm following the instructions in the "Wrox Press' Beginning Java Databases" book. Once it is installed, I try to configure a listener, but I keep getting the response that port 1521 is being used by another listener (even though I've not got another listener). When I then set my listener to port 1520, it appears to work.
When I then run SQLPlus I get the login dialogue box asking for my username, password and host script. I give the SYS or the SYSTEM username followed by the appropriate password and then my computer name for the host string(?is this right?) and I get the error - 'cannot resolve protocol...'.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but I can't get it to work, and I can't find anything in the relevant documentation or in the book I'm working through to help.
PLEASE HELP!
Pete.

hi pete,
You dont have to install oracle and unistall again and again. the mistake you are doing is you are trying to create a listener. when ever oracle is installed a default listener is created for the default port 1521.
now you have to just connected to any schema (sys or system) using sql plus. that's all. if you want to create a own listener then you have to configure in your tnsnames.ora, listener.ora and using lsnrctl.exe you will have to start and stop the listener process as you want. the compand is
c: lsnrctl
thne
start <listener_name>
for default listener dont specify the name
bye
