why oracle listener running on default port 1521 instead of 1527?

[Former Member]

Dear SAP gurus,

Here i am facing issue with oracle listener.

I have given listener port 1527 at the time of installation of SAP solution manager on linux,

Installation completed successfully.

Before starting the SAP ,i am trying to start listener.but it is running on 1521 port.

I have cross checked in listener.ora and tnsnames.ora files..same port=1527 exists.

But when i am starting listener it is taking 1521 port.

Please give me any clue regarding the same.

Thanks & Regards

Hello Kumar,

what is the name of your listnerer: LISTENER or LISTENER_SID? If your listener is called LISTENER_SID and you try to manually start the listener without specifying the listener name, then a default listener with the name LISTENER on port 1521 is being started.

Please post the contents of your listener.ora file and the output of your listener start command, then we can decide what is going wrong.

Thanks Mark,

Resolved using LISTENER_SID .

Earlier it was just LISTENER.

Edited listener.ora file and started with lsnrctl start listener_SID

Hi Kumar,

Was the listener restarted after the port has been changed in the listener.ora file . A restart would be required

if you wish that the listener should start listening to the new port .

Please exexute the following -: lsnrctl stop <LISTENER>

                                                     lsnrctl start <LISTENER>
