DBCA could not startup the ASM instance configured on this node

Today we create database with DBCA ,but dbca can't find ASM.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DBCA could not startup the ASM instance configured on
this node. To proceed with teh database creation using
ASM you need the ASM instance to be up and running.
Do you want to recreate the ASM instance on this node?
[Yes] [No]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Solution

If we create a soft link in the db_home's $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin for the listener.ora that points to the asm_home's $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/listener.ora, DBCA is able to connect to the ASM instance and proceed with the database creation.
