Hello all,

well, my upgrade of a Windows 2000 8.0.6 database to 9.2.0.2 is now more
or less complete, despite my problems with the DBUA which baffled
myself, this group, and Oracle Support! Eventually I upgraded the
database manually, and was successful. Hurray!

However, we now appear to have a lingering reference to the old 8.0
Listener. I've disabled the 8.0 Listener service and the 8.0 Agent
service, so now both the Agent and Listener services are 9.2. But under
some circumstances, one of our developers has been getting "No Listener"
errors (although connections to the upgraded DB, via the 9.2 Listener,
are MOSTLY working fine). So something, somewhere, is still looking for
the 8.0 Listener.

When I look at the ora92\network\admin\snmp_rw.ora file, it contains:

snmp.contact.listener =3D ""
snmp.index.listener =3D 1
snmp.contact.listener1 =3D ""
snmp.index.listener1 =3D 2
snmp.contact.DLIB.DIGLIB3 =3D ""
snmp.index.DLIB.DIGLIB3 =3D 3

and the ora92\network\admin\snmp_ro.ora file contains:

snmp.visibleservices =3D (listener, listener1, DLIB.DIGLIB3)
snmp.shortname.listener =3D LISTENER
snmp.longname.listener =3D listener_diglib3.staff.uce.ac.uk
snmp.configfile.listener =3D d:\oracle\ora92\network\admin\listener.ora
snmp.oraclehome.listener =3D d:\oracle\ora92
snmp.servicename.listener_diglib3.staff.uce.ac.uk =3D
Oracleorahome92TNSListener
snmp.shortname.listener1 =3D LISTENER
snmp.longname.listener1 =3D listener1_diglib3.staff.uce.ac.uk
snmp.configfile.listener1 =3D d:\oracle\ora80\net80\admin\listener.ora
snmp.oraclehome.listener1 =3D d:\oracle\ora80
snmp.servicename.listener1_diglib3.staff.uce.ac.uk =3D =
OracleTNSListener80
snmp.SID.DLIB.DIGLIB3 =3D DLIB
snmp.oraclehome.DLIB.DIGLIB3 =3D d:\oracle\ora92
snmp.address.DLIB.DIGLIB3 =3D
(ADDRESS=3D(PROTOCOL=3DBEQ)(PROGRAM=3DORACLE)(ARGV0=3DORACLEDLIB)(ARGS=3D=
'(DESCRIP
TION=3D(LOCAL=3DYES)(ADDRESS=3D(PROTOCOL=3Dbeq)))'))
snmp.remoteaddress.DLIB.DIGLIB3 =3D (DESCRIPTION=3D(ADDRESS_LIST =3D
(ADDRESS =3D (PROTOCOL =3D TCP)(HOST =3D DIGLIB3)(PORT =3D 1521))   =
(ADDRESS =3D
(PROTOCOL =3D TCP)(HOST =3D DIGLIB3)(PORT =3D 1521)) )
(CONNECT_DATA=3D(SID=3DDLIB)(SERVER=3DDEDICATED)))
ifile =3D d:\oracle\ora92\network\admin\snmp_rw.ora
ifile =3D d:\oracle\ora92\network\admin\sqlnet.ora

By the way, I did force the recreation of these files, by deleting them,
stopping all services, then restarting. So somehow, as you can see, when
snmp_ro.ora is generated, it's still picking up references to the old
listener. So can anyone explain why this is happening, and how I can
prevent it? I've not uninstalled the old version of Oracle (8.0.6) yet,
because I didn't think this was a necessary priority, but I certainly
don't want anything "pointing" to the old 8.0 services.

I hope one of you experts can come up with something, please!
