RE: URGENT: INCOMPLETE RECOVERY

If she's doing an incomplete recovery, she'll never get far enough in recovery to apply current redo log from the source.....  

Paula,  

I know you said you were sure about begin/end backup on everything, but, check your alert.log. Does it have any messages about "fuzzy" datafiles? If so, you missed a begin/end backup somewhere.  

Also, make sure you ended backup on all datafiles: select distinct status from v$backup;  

The above should return a single line:
NOT ACTIVE   Finally, if none of that works, please post the exact text of the error message you're getting.  

-Mark

have you tried copying the current redo log from the source and applying
it to the clone?

	This should be a simple clone and I have done it a million

available to clone to.  
	 
	So here I am exhausted trying to bring a database open after
incomplete recovery.  I have checked and double-checked that I have done
a begin backup...cp,,,end backup on each datafile, have a controlfile
and database in mounted stated, have all the logs - in fact, apply logs
that I know were created far after the backup. 
	 
	mounted database
	recover database using backup controlfile until cancel
	 
	endless applying of archive logs
	 
	I cannot open the database with resetlogs.  I cannot open it at
all.  I am getting that error that not all my files are in-synch.  sigh.

	 
	Any good ideas out there - maybe I just need another set of
eyes.  :)
	 
	Thanks,
