Listener starts fail with the error Linux Error: 29: Illegal seek
Issue
Listener starts fail with the error Linux Error: 29: Illegal seek
Cause
Loopback address is missing from the Linux host file (/etc/hosts)
Steps to workaround
a. Add loopback address in the /etc/hosts file, if already present and it is disabled, make sure it is
enabled.
b. Restart the listener again after making the changes to /etc/hosts file.
Example steps to workaround:
First check in to the /etc/hosts file, make sure the loopback address (127.0.0.1) entry is not missing, if not present, add the entry of loopback address and try to restart the listener again.
Listener start fail with the error "Linux Error: 29: Illegal seek"

check the /etc/hosts file has loopback address is enabled, if not enable it and restart the listener again
After enabling the loopback address the listener started successfully
