RE: DB Connecting Problem

Ken,   Try starting your listener from the command line: C:\> lsnrctl start   This will likely give you a better error message you can work from. If that doesn't make it clear enough then check your listener.log (you'll find that in the Oracle Home's network\log directory). If that still isn't enough then you may need to turn tracing on the listener and engage Oracle Support.
