Listener failed to start [message #66884]

System Configuration:
OS: SunOS acheron 5.8 Generic_108528-18 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraAX-i2
Oracle: Solaris, Version 9.0.1.0.0

The installation went successfully. And we have successfully created 2 databases, started the listener, and did all kinds of work on it after the installation. But once we reboot the system, the listener failed to start (database are started successfully). The error message is:

TNSLSNR for Solaris: Version 9.0.1.0.0 - Production
System parameter file is /oracle/oraProg/OraHome1/network/admin/listener.ora
Log messages written to /oracle/oraProg/OraHome1/network/log/listener.log
Error listening on: (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=IPC)(KEY=EXTPROC)))
TNS-12541: TNS:no listener
TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
TNS-00511: No listener
Solaris Error: 2: No such file or directory

Listener failed to start. See the error message(s) above...

I am pretty sure that this problem has something to do with the system configuration. Because the other machine went through the same installation and configuration, it doesn't have any problems on starting listener after rebooting the machine. I have no clue on how to track down this missing file/directory as the error message indicated.

Any help is highly appreciated.

Regards,
Avon

I did configure the listeners for autostart. But it doesn't mater in this case because the listener fails to start manually, either.

I am having the same listener for both databases. Here is my listener.ora.

LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC))
)
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = acheron.tahoenetworks.com)(PORT = 1521
))
)
)
)

SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = /oracle/oraProg/OraHome1)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
)

(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = dwhdb)
(ORACLE_HOME = /oracle/oraProg/OraHome1)
(SID_NAME = dwhdb)
)
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = oltpdb)
(ORACLE_HOME = /oracle/oraProg/OraHome1)
(SID_NAME = oltpdb)
)
)
