Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Database Clone error
Hi,
I am trying to clone a DB on windows.
Created a controlfile with
ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE;
I have taken a cold backup of the DB. copy all files in another folder.
I have created a service.
LOG INTO SQL WITH NEW PFILE - AND HIT CREATE CONTROLFILE COMMAND.
It says controlfile Created.
But after that getting following error.
My original db was not in Archivelog mode still this DB asks for the
archive file. I have copied redo logs too.
Found on the net says CHECK THE ARCHIVE DESTINATION, but my primary db was
not in archive log. Any Idea ???
regards - chirag
