Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Please help! Recover a database on another server
it depends on how you created the control file that was on the backup.
If you just copied the control file from disk, that would explain your problem.
If you did a "alter system backup controlfile to <file>" and then backed that one up and moved it to the other server and then did a
recover database until <something> using backup controlfile
then what you did should have worked.
