You can use your old files if you set the incarnation back to what it was before the resetlogs. I can't remember the correct syntax but you can look it up in the documentation. Essentially, you will redo the original restore again.

HTH,

Subject: Restore problem

I have got a database that I cloned by copying a restore and then recreating the controlfile. It started up fine. After shutting it down, somebody mucked with one of the database files at the OS level. Now, when I try to start it up, it complains about that file so I shut it down and copied once again from the original backup the file that was messed with. Is there anyway to save this database? These are the errors I am getting now.

ORA-01190 controlfile or data file string is from before the last RESETLOGS Cause: An attempt was made to use a datafile when the log reset information in the file does not match the control file. Either the datafile or the control file is
a backup that was made before the most recent ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS.
Action: Restore file from a more recent backup.

ORA-01111 name for data file string is unknown - rename to correct file Cause: The datafile was missing from a CREATE CONTROLFILE command or BACKUP CONTROLFILE RECOVERY was done with a control file that was saved before the file was created.
Action: Rename the MISSING file to the name of the real file.
