Hi,

you need to shutdown the listener if you are removing any listener log files, rather than just removing the listener log file. This is because although you may have removed the physical log file it does not actually free up the space as it is still attached to it thinking it s writing to the log file. Hence the space will not be freed up 'til you bounce the listener the log file is related to.

Guys,

listener.log in %ORACLE_HOME%network/log has grown to 1.7G in size. can i just overwrite it with another blank file named listener.ora ? if YES , can i do it when the DB is quite busy ?

do people delete/move it manually in periodic intervals ? how is it usually managed ?

the environment is 8.1.6/Win2K.

TIA.
Jp.
