'm a j2me developer interested in learning some oracle database skills. I' ve just installed oracle11g on fedora 11. Even though I had followed the prescribed installation guides strictly, still I couldn't start the listener.

Can anyone help me to resolve these errors?

Can anyone help me to examine the following outputs?
