Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.tools -> Re: listener error
check the messge:
TNS-12541 TNS:no listener
Cause: The connection request could not be completed because the listener is
not running.
Action: Ensure that the supplied destination address matches one of the
addresses used by the listener. Compare the TNSNAMES.ORA entry with the
appropriate LISTENER.ORA file (or TNSNAV.ORA if the connection is to go by
way of an Interchange). Start the listener on the remote machine.
On NT4 or NT5 (Win2000) you have to start the Oracle Listener Service as well.
