Thanks for your reply Joe.

Nope. I took out the reference to the 8.1.5 database in the 8.1.6 listener.ora... same old crap. It still thinks it's starting a listener named LISTENER pointing at 1521.

I also tried changing the name of the 8.1.5 listener to LSNR815. Still, when I go to start the 8.1.6 listener I get the same error:

qodt bar:/oracle/dbserver/8.1.5/network/admin>cd $TNS_ADMIN

qodt bar:/oracle/dbserver/8.1.6/network/admin>lsnrctl

8.1.6 listener dont play nice with 8.1.5 and vice versa.

isnt this the problem?
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = qodd)
(ORACLE_HOME = /oracle/dbserver/8.1.5)
(SID_NAME = qodd)

)

I am at my wits' end here. I have a TAR logged with support. I have installed 8.1.6 on our HP/UX 11.0 host. Upgrade of database was smooth, no errors, database is behaving normally (so far). We have DBMS_UTILITY back.

However I CAN NOT START an 8.1.6 listener!! The 8.1.5 listener can't listen for the 8.1.6 database (I tried that too) so I tried to start a second listener on a different port. No dice. lsnrctl thinks I am trying to start a listener with the same attributes as the 8.1.5 listener.

My environment variables are all set to 8.1.6, there is no 8.1.5 anywhere. I have un-set SHLIB_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH as suggested in description of bug 1355618.
I have also tried having the 8.1.6 listener listen for both the 8.1.6 db and 8.1.5 db. Doesn't work either.

Out of ideas and waiting on an iTar response (and taking bets on how long it will be.) In the meantime our development team will grind to a standstill eventually - I know it's not a production outage, but it's darn near that. It's my neck if 30 people can't do any work.

Here's my listener.ora. It does not recognize the name I have given it (won't accept start LSNR816).

ANY suggestions are appreciated. Thanks in advance.
