I am building a new Oracle Server. I have the following in the listener.ora file.

LISTENERProd =
(ADDRESS_LIST=
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=ORACLEPRODDB)(PORT=1555))
)

SID_LIST_LISTENERProd=
(SID_LIST=
(SID_DESC=
(SID_NAME=dg4odbc)
(ORACLE_HOME=c:\Oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1)
(PROGRAM=dg4odbc)
)
)



C:\>lsnrctl start LISTENERProd

TNS-01150: The address of the specified listener name is incorrect
 *Cause:  The address on which the listener attempted to listen contains a
 syntax error.
 *Action: For the listener name or service name specified to LSNRCTL, check
 that the address or connect descriptor is well-formed. You can find the
 listener name in LISTENER.ORA, or you can access the listener through
 the service name is TNSNAMES.ORA.

Are you sure?
And about the other parameters?

Michel

Thank you Michel for the reply. Please ignore my previous posting. I have changed the listener and here is the modified file.


Listerner.ora

DEVITG =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = ORACLEPRODDB.global.corp)(PORT = 3521))
)
)

ADR_BASE_DEVITG = C:\Oracle

LISTENER_DEVITG =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = ORACLEPRODDB.global.corp)(PORT = 3521))


C:\>lsnrctl start devitg

There is nothing to solve.
Why do you think there is a problem?

Rarely is non-default listener required; like DEVITG
Rarely is non-default port required; like 3521.
Both are specially true for any newbie who does not know how to properly configure SQL*Net.

============================================================================
One single listener, using the default name of LISTENER and the default port of 1521 is quite capable of -- indeed, was designed to -- service multiple databases of multiple versions running from multiple homes. Anything else introduces unnecessary complexity and potential for thing to not work .. as you are discovering.

The listener is quite happy to start with no listener.ora file at all. I suggest you do the same. Then if business requirements dictate some non-default values, you can create a listener.ora to address those specific requirements. And after 17 years of working with Oracle, I've *never* seen a legitimate business requirement for creating a listener with a non-default name or non-default port. Such requirements exist only in the fevered imagination of those who don't understand how a listener works.

One may be security.
It is (a little bit) harder to hack a listener when you don't know the name or the port.

Another be may be organization.
There may be a port or name policy in the enterprise.
And maybe port 1521 is already used by someone else when you install Oracle.
