Can not startup database

Question

Hi,
10.2.0.4 on AIX 6.1 64bits.
When startup (with pfile or startup without pfile) it fails asking startup with upgrade option and when start with upgrade , catupgrd.sql failes with ORA-20000: Upgrade not supported from version , which on Metalink it is said to go back to minimum version (10.2.0.1).
Any idea ? Thanks.
startup pfile=mypfile
Database mounted.

I looked in alert log for Stop/start but did not find about shutdown/startup before import.
Any way , dump was from a 10.2.04 DB on an AIX 6.1 server. Imp commande :
imp system@mydb IGNORE=Y fromuser=origschema touser=sysadm file=/data01/somefile.exp Log=my_imp.logThank you.
