A Grid Infrastructure Installation Adventure
I was very used to create
ASM instance manually before 11gR2. With 11gR2 we must to install Grid
Infrastructure even on sigle instance databases if we’re going to use ASM. In
my last installation i had strange errors that i’ll share below. First error was
complaining about the password and the log file is:

I had the following error on 11gR2 Grid Infrastructure installation:

The plug-in failed in its perform method
Log file indicates that it’s not possible to start listener, because “The information provided for this listener is currently in use by other software on this computer.” Not very helpful, so i checked the trace file.
