Re: [Lilux-help] access to Oracle [solved] - Lilux-help

16 Feb 2010

Hello,

THanks again you put me on the right way, interesting point is
when you suggest to try telnet localhost: connection refused means
obviously that tcp connection is impossible, this caused by a bad 
configuration of the system; thus I found in /etc/hosts the line:

127.0.0.1 localhost

should be:

127.0.0.1 localhost.localhost.localdomain

I'm not sure that it is a definitive solution, but now connection
to the Oracle's home page is possible; maybe Suyse is responsible to 
don't create correctly this file, I don't know what happends with 
other distros

 Ooops, should have been "note the name of the process"
 Be sure to exclude firefox of course, if you have a
 connection right at
 that time :-) We are interested in the process that is
 LISTENing on this
 port, not in the clients that may be connecting to it...

 Ok, for practical aspect I will use port 1158 here  because I have
  the same problem on two machine running under
Suse10.*  (one in 32b
  the other in 64b); on current machine http is
 configurated on port
  1158.

 lsof -i tcp:1158 gives no answer  
 Weird... and you are sure that at this point in time,
 firefox was still
 connecting?

  When I'm launchig

 firefox http://127.0.0.1:1158/apex

 and ps -ax|grep firefox I obtain:

  6505 ?        S       0:00 /bin/sh /usr/bin/firefox
   6510 ?        Sl      0:40
/usr/lib64/firefox/firefox
   6749 pts/28   S+      0:00 grep firefox

 Indeed, it's the server process that's important, not the
 client (which
 is firefox obviously...)

  I don't find any log-file at the moment

   you can
try to
 telnet directly to the port:

 telnet localhost 1154  
 Once again connection is refused:

 #telnet localhost 1158
 Trying 127.0.0.1...
 telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection  refused
  Trying 127.0.0.1...
 telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection  refused
  Trying ::1...  
 ok.
