ORA-00258: manual archiving in NOARCHIVELOG mode must identify log

Question

Hi I am new to oracle streams. I am trying to setup a one way replication from one database to another using Oracle 10g (10.2.0.1.0) on Windows XP SP3 (32 bit).
I ran the following proc as the streams admin schema:
begin
dbms_streams_adm.maintain_schemas(
schema_names => 'XXCOW',
source_directory_object => 'repl_exp_dir',
destination_directory_object => 'repl_imp_dir',
source_database => 'PWBSD',
destination_database => 'PDVSD',
perform_actions => true,
dump_file_name => 'exp_app23.dmp',
capture_queue_table => 'rep_capt_table',
capture_queue_name => 'rep_capt_queue',
capture_queue_user => NULL,
apply_queue_table => 'rep_dest_table',
apply_queue_name => 'rep_dest_queue',
apply_queue_user => NULL,
capture_name => 'capture_pubs',
propagation_name => 'prop_pubs',
apply_name => 'apply_pubs',
log_file => 'exp_app23.log',
bi_directional => false,
include_ddl => true,
instantiation => dbms_streams_adm.instantiation_schema);
end;
The script failed the first time because i forgot to configure the source database in archive log mode.
The steps i followed to change to archivelog mode:
SQL> select name from v$database;
NAME
PWBSD
SQL> alter system set LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST = 'D:\data\oracle\oradata\PWBSD\archive' scope=both;
System altered.
SQL> conn sys/sys@pwbsd as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> shutdown immediate
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL> startup mount
ORACLE instance started.
Total System Global Area 612368384 bytes
Fixed Size 1250428 bytes
Variable Size 197135236 bytes
Database Buffers 406847488 bytes
Redo Buffers 7135232 bytes
Database mounted.
SQL> alter database archivelog;
Database altered.
SQL> alter database open;
Database altered.
SQL>
I configured it in archive log mode and ran the proc above again.
I got the following output this time:
job finished
begin
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-23616: Failure in executing block 90 for script
959ECF1D1159402A8C16687AE5E3B5CD

ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_STREAMS_ADM", line 2685
ORA-06512: at line 2
I ran the following to check the error:
select * from dba_recoverable_script_errors;
The output is:
SCRIPT ID: 959ECF1D1159402A8C16687AE5E3B5CD
BLOCK NUM: 90
ERROR_NUMBER: -258
ERROR_MESSAGE: ORA-00258: manual archiving in NOARCHIVELOG mode must identify log
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_RECO_SCRIPT_INVOK", line 129
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_STREAMS_RPC", line 358
It seemed like it was still complaining about archive log mode,
I verified that the PWBSD db is in archivelog mode by running the following:
select name, log_mode from v$database;
NAME: PWBSD
LOG_MODE: ARCHIVELOG
What could be the problem and how do i proceed to fix it?
