hi,

what is the result of :

By experience, It's seemns that 8.1.7 is bugged need to upgrade to 8.1.7.4

hi,

do you have multiple installations on this same machine?

if yes, please check your ORACLE_HOME environment variable.

In your attachment, i can see:

export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/8.0.5


kind regards
yogeeraj

$ strings core

This is particularly useless, don't do this.
As L-DERLYN says, what does "file core" say and what does gdb give for a stack trace, "bt"?

[Srimalik]

do
(I assume that core file is in current dir and the path of lsnrctl is $ORACLE_HOME/bin/lsnrctl)

gdb -c core $ORACLE_HOME/bin/lsnrctl

then on the gdb prompt give "bt" command

post the output here. Lets see if somebody can help.

Thanks for your replies.

The core file was created when I do stop, start or status with LISTENER.
The core file located at /home/oracle/

Ludovic Derlyn: Current Oracle version is 8.1.7.4

Yogeeraj: What do mean: multiple installation?
We only install Oracle 7.1.7.4 on this machine!

The core file named: core

Here is output of what you recomend:
<>gdb -c core /home/oracle/

Please advise.

I guess something is wrong with listener.ora file.

Check the file for correct entries, SID parenthesis etc.

DNS working okay yes?

[Dennis Handly]

To run gdb you need:
$ gdb executable core
You put the directory for the executable and didn't put the path to lsnrctl as Srikrishan said.
