Catalog db is not required, you can always use control file as catalog.
Just try it using "nocatalog" as option when you connect to rman.

Also to get better response,
Do not use IM style language here. Avoid u=you y=why and so on.
Most of the folks here are not native English speakers

Always please post the Oracle versions,OS etc.
