datguard issue

Oracle 9i database running on hp-ux .. I am trying to create a standby database .

did all the standby setup . but I have not done any standby changes for primary database.

However when i mount the standby database and do a recover standby database then it is finding the archive log files on the standby server .

However when i try to do the managed standby database it do not find the archivelog file .

What am I missing ? appreciate any pointers

thanks in advance
Kar
