Hi

    I think, you removed the listener log file while the listener is up and running. When you removed the listener log, listener was having a file pointer open. Since the file pointer is not closed, the listener is still writing to the same node.

    If you stop and start the listener, you would see the log file.

Thanks

Hi list,

About a month ago, I moved and compressed listener.log file to a different directory because
this file accumulated to a huge size over past year or two.

Since that point, nothing is able to write to listenr.log file even though i did
 not change an writing permission
of this file and its parent directory. The file size is keeping 0 over one month
 period. I do not know how to make
this file writeable.

I issued 'lsnrctl status command' to check the destination of this file:

Listener Parameter File
/u01/app/oracle/product/8.0.5/network/admin/listener.ora
Listener Log File
/u01/app/oracle/product/8.0.5/network/log/listener.log
Services Summary...

  extproc               has 1 service handler(s)
  idms          has 1 service handler(s)
  orac          has 3 service handler(s)
  tsp           has 1 service handler(s)
  vign          has 2 service handler(s)
The command completed successfully

Then I go to corresponding directory and find the size of this file is 0.

nnidb1:/export/home/oracle_at_orac> cd
/u01/app/oracle/product/8.0.5/network/log
nnidb1:/u01/app/oracle/product/8.0.5/network/log_at_orac> ls -laF total 4488

-rw-rw-rw-   1 oracle   dba      2278569 Jan 23 09:55 sqlnet.log


Will someone in the list enlight me?

Thanks

Eveleen
