Hi,
Sometimes You can get “TNS-12224: TNS:no listener ” error.
Details of error are as follows.
TNS-12224: 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.
To solve this error, stop and start listener as follows.
You can stop and start the Listener as follows.
$ srvctl stop listener $ srvctl start listener
or
$ lsnrctl stop listener $ lsnrctl start listener
If listener is not running properly, you can create a static listener and start it as follows.
Add the following listener descriptions to the listener.ora file under $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin.
Check your Hostname, Port, DB Name and fill them correctly.
LISTENER = (DESCRIPTION_LIST = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.63.34)(PORT = 1521)) (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521)) ) ) SID_LIST_LISTENER = (SID_LIST = (SID_DESC = (GLOBAL_DBNAME = MSDB) (ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/db_home_18c ) (SID_NAME = MSDB1 ) ) )
[oracle@msdbadm01 ~]$ lsnrctl start LISTENER
Check listener status as follows, it is listening the Database and its service as follows.
