Zabbix_server fails to start

[nquintero]

Hi.

I'm new with zabbix and I follow all instructions to configure it using Oracle as backend database. After install I tried to start zabbix server but it fails with this error (zabbix_server.log):
[Z3001] Connection to database '//localhost/XE' failed: [-1] ORA-12541: TNS:no listener

This is my configuration on zabbix_server.conf file:

# Database host name
# Default is localhost

#DBHost=localhost
DBHost=localhost

# Database name
# SQLite3 note: path to database file must be provided. DBUser and DBPassword are ignored.
DBName=XE

# Database user

DBUser=zabbix

# Database password
# Comment this line if no password used

DBPassword=xxxxxx

This is the information for the DB used as zabbix repository:
Host: localhost.
Service_name=XE
Listener port=1521

I think my problem could be related with connection info but I don't know what is wrong in my config file.

Thanks for your help.

Regards

More info about this issue

Hi.
I continue checking about this issue and I found an error on my zabbix_server.conf file. My Oracle Listener was configured using IP address 127.0.1.1 (Not 127.0.0.1)
After this change, zabbix_server tries to start but it fails with this error:

6677:20100810:153715.165 [Z3001] Connection to database '//127.0.1.1/XE' failed: [-1] ORA-12537: TNS:connection closed

6677:20100810:153715.165 Database is down. Reconnecting in 10 seconds

Please your help to solve this issue.

Thanks in advance ,
