In the last 2 days the listener was dead twice. No messages in the listener.log, no nothing. Lsnrctl also failed to stop the listener. I had to restart the service to get the listener to restart. I opened a TAR, but I thought to ask your advice. -- Adar Yechiel Rechovot, Israel -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l This e-mail and any attachment is for authorised use by the intended recipient(s) only.
