9i and 10g on same host + listeners
433130May 25 2005 — edited Jun 9 2009Dear All,
I have 2 simple questions:
1- Is it possible to have 2 database servers on one machine given that
one is 10g (10.1.0.3) and the other is 9i (9.2.0.x) ?
2- Second, which of course is valied if answer to question 1 is YES,
What about lsnrclt version incompatibility?
More details
I installed 10g version mentioned above on the server that hosts the
working 9i database. However, when I initiated the lsnrclt start of the
new 10g database,
and then tried to start the 9i server, I got this error. Please help or
explain.
$>lsnrctl start

When I stopped the newer 10g listener and then started the 9i version
before it and to restart the 10g litener again, I get the following error:
"TNS-12618 TNS:versions are incompatible" and refered to metalink note
