Hi,

Is this a new Oracle installation? If yes, please check if the installation has been completed successfully.

Otherwise, try starting the listener manually i.e lsnrctl start. Post any errors that you see and attach the listener.log

Cheers!

Thanks warren

This is not a new installation. I was running SGEN Tcode. I stopped the transaction and wanted to start it again, it gave an ABAP DUMP error. After that i had restarted the Server at OS level. From then onwards the TNS Listener service was not starting.

But the problem is resolved. The problem was with the IP Address. It was changed and the entry was not present in the Host file. So i have made an entry in the hostfile and started the TNS Listener service, it worked.
