Re: Total frustration with 8.1.5

If the version is Personal Oracle then there is a setting in teh registry which you need to change in order for
the listener to start. I cannot remember exactly where, but I'm sure you will find it when going through the Oracle Registry Settings. There should be a Listener option. I'm not sure (again) wether the parameter should be AUTO or START.

Then restart the machine.
