Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: REP: writing to renamed Listener.log file
Well, bouncing the listener is not needed. We do the same at
our place here
lsnrctl set log_file
$ORACLE_HOME/network/log/listener1.log
mv $ORACLE_HOME/network/log/listener.log
\
$ORACLE_HOME/network/log/listener.log.$QUALIFIER
lsnrctl set log_file $ORACLE_HOME/network/log/listener.log
where $QUALIFIER is the date stamp.

set log_file $ORACLE_HOME/network/log/listener1.logActually, I just
talked to Worldwide Support about this issue. They recommend using the
set log_file command to rename the file to another file name ("templisten.log"
for example)- for the life of the listener session. After that, you can
reset/delete/purge the listener.log file safely. Then bounce the listener and it
will begin writing to listener.log file again.LSNRCTL> help set
