Re: Oracle Web Listener
The oasroot.sh script needs to be run as root
from the $ORACLE_HOME/ows/4.0/install/ directory.

Re: Oracle Web Listener
OWS-08811: Unable to startup Oracle Web Listener `www'.
When you got this error did you check the listener error log file, you see the following errors:
The listener error log can be found at the location: $ORAWEB_ADMIN/$ORAWEB_SITE/httpd_
A required parameter, ServerPID, specified in the listener configuration file is missing or has become corrupted. This parameter provides the full path of the file to which the WAS listener will write its process id (PID) when it starts up. The current value for this parameter can be viewed using the OAS node manager to select HTTP listeners->myhost:WWW->Network in the tree applet. The value for the ServerPID parameter is displayed in the field labeled Listener PID file. This value can also be accessed and modified using a standard UNIX text editor such as VI or EMACS. Since the format of this file is highly sensitive it is recommended that you make a backup copy prior to making modifications.
During startup, OAS needs to write to a file where it stores the process IDs for active listener processes and failure to obtain the correct location of this file prevents an OAS listener from starting. This note supplies a manual procedure for supplying the parameter that is missing from the listener configuration file, thereby allowing the OAS listener to start.

$ORACLE_HOME/ows/4.0/bin

Re: Oracle Web Listener
Even after shutting down the app server, the WSH process still remains active so I have had to kill it. Then restarting the app server and webserver works fine.
Good luck!

Re: Oracle Web Listener
without running the oasroot.sh script it will never run because root permissions are required for any port below 1024
Could this however be more basic?
If its not oasroot.sh could it be a problem with httpd.conf?
Lets say you have a named web server Servername schmobagel.com
and schmobagel.com doesn't resolve.
Or you have an IP based name and you don't have that IP addressed configured in /etc/rc.config.d/netconf
Check that your basic networking is working and matches httpd.conf
I like the oasroot.sh solution but I'd think a better error message would include the IP address of the HP server.
Here is what metalink has to say about the error.

Re: Oracle Web Listener
Have you applied any patches recently. The oracle forums show at least three users having this error after applying oracle patches.
