So does this mean you do not have the redo logs, and do not have the
controlfiles?
I suggest you run out and purchase the Rama Velpuri Oracle Press book on Backup and Recovery. The book is well-written and is a boon to any up-and-coming Oracle DBA. It may be able to help you understand your problem.
