Yes, this is not Oracle support, from here a man can sometimes get sensible answer. :-) <-- just joke

Did you ever fixed something (not limited to Oracle) with troubleshooting manual ? I'm not. I usually looked in just to learn that my problem is not listed there. :-)

Yes, definitely true, it's interesting why some people assume that another people have some strange mental link to their system, so there is no need for informations. Plus it can be a good idea to post also listener.log.

I'm not quite sure. Sometimes when I build database with database assistant, this tool didn't configured database properly, especially network settings. So I think that is a good idea, after using database assistant, to check network configuration files. For example listenet.ora was bad sometimes after DB assistant tried to set up network for new DB.
