Cannot create listener...

441858May 14 2007 — edited May 14 2007
Hi all,

Ok, here is my issue. When I created the database I forgot to officially configure/create the listener. So what I did what I just copied a listener.ora file from another database and plopped it in the ORACLE_HOME/network/admin directory. So when I checked the listener it was there but it wasn't supporting any services. So the issue came up when I was trying to do backups and connect to the catalog and target database when I actually needed the listener and it started to give me errors. So now I am trying to create a listener with the netca and it is giving the following error:

Configuring Listener:LISTENER
ListenerException: Could not create Listener: TNS-04414: File error


DO I need to remove the current listener.ora file? How can I create a listener file?
