RE: Listener.log not been updated

It must be an internal 4Gb limit within Oracle if you can create a larger file on the same server.  

TBH having a 4Gb is poor management anyway. Why not create a new one every week or so. It will be a lot easier to manage and if you do need to view it I think a 4Gb will be almost unreadable.

Subject: Listener.log not been updated  

I am on Linux x86 OEL4 using Oracle 10.2.0.3.

My listener.log is not been updated since the 30 May.

cd /opt/oracle/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/network/log [oracle_at_juk-prod log]$ ll
total 4203424
-rw-r--r-- 1 oracle oinstall 4294967428 May 30 21:49 listener.log

If I do status in lsnrctl:
Listener Parameter File /opt/oracle/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/network/admin/listener.ora Listener Log File /opt/oracle/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/network/log/listener.log

Everything else seems fine. I connect to the database with no problem. Any idea why the listener would stop writing log?

To solve the problem, I did the following in lsnrctl: SET LOG_FILE list.log

Now I get information in list.log
[oracle_at_juk-prod log]$ ll
total 4222736
-rw-r--r-- 1 oracle oinstall 4294967428 May 30 21:49 listener.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 oracle oinstall 511462 Sep 16 19:41 list.log

Any idea why it would stop logging info once the log was at 4gig? I have 32GIG datafile on that machine.
Is there a thresholds where oracle stop to log, so it is possible to vi the log? Anyone has documentation on this? Or a link on that subject?
