Hi,
I run Oracle 9i on Solaris. The database works properly but I have problems with the listener. Anybody got any tips?

Thanks alot!

It certainly looks as if you don't have a listener.ora file. Can you look for /export/oracle/network/admin/listener.ora? If there is no such file, you will have to create it.
