Rebuilding Standby - fails looking for current ORL

Environment:
Oracle 11.2.0.3 EE on Solaris
I am trying to rebuild a physical standby database on the standby server.
I have copied all RMAN files from the most recent Level 0 and Level 1 backups as well as all archived logs.
I have created and copied a new standby control file and located the copies in the documented places based on my pfile and spfile.
I have left the parameter 'standby_file_management' equal to 'auto'.
I have created an RMAN parameter file that looks like this:
startup nomount
sql 'alter database mount standby database';
run{
       allocate channel c1 type disk;
       allocate channel c2 type disk;
       allocate channel c3 type disk;
       allocate channel c4 type disk;
       allocate channel c5 type disk;
       restore database;
recover database;
When I run this it restores pretty much everything, but fails looking for what turns out to be the 'CURRENT' online redo log file from the Production database.
I verified this by running:
select * from v$log;
Why would the recovery process be looking for the currently active redo log file from the Production database?
What do I need to do to make it recover the data I've given it and then let me turn on MRP to pick up anything outstanding?
Any help is greatly appreciated!!
-gary

Thanks for the quick response!!
Since I have run the 'recover database' command and it has been successful up to the point where it's looking for the latest OLR, can I just start the MRP on the standby as it exists right now?
I'm not sure what the status of my standby is at this moment.
When I re-run the above script and look at the log file, I always see several lines of other data files it's recovering.
Have those been recovered successfully and it's just waiting on me to cancel the recovery?
Thanks again for your help!!!

  • 11g runinstaller fails looking for libjava.so

    We are walking thru our first 11g upgrade and we are having a problem running ./runInstaller -executePrereqs.  If fails looking for libjava.so.  We are upgrading from 10.2.0.4 on an HP-UX Itanium server 64 bit with OS release at 11.31.  Has anyone else run into this and what was their fix/workaround?  Thanks.

  • Just put my i-tunes library on a 2nd hard drive, how do I easily change the location where the program looks for current songs from the C:/ drive to the new drive without going thru each song individually in the "get info" tab

    I just installed a new hard drive and transfered my i-tunes library to the new drive.  How can I make a bulk change of the location the program looks for the current songs.  I know you can do it song by song from the "get info" tab but I need to do it for all 4500 songs.  I have already changed the location that new files are stored to the new hard drive.

    The pop-up lets you connect to the library file, iTunes Library.itl, on the external drive. This will, in turn, automatically update the preference for the iTunes Media folder to be the iTunes Media or iTunes Music folder inside the iTunes folder on the external drive and it will update the locations of all the content inside the media folder so that it uses the version on the external drive.
    This works seamlessly if all iTunes content was inside the iTunes Media (or iTunes Music) folder (which was itself inside the iTunes library folder) before you moved/copied the iTunes folder. For content outside the iTunes Media folder iTunes should remain connected to the original location. These files should be consolidated (before or after the move/copy) and in addition, if available the library should be upgraded to the newer layout which places iPod Games and Mobile Applications inside the media folder instead of the library folder. (File > Library > Organize Library...)
    For split libraries there are methods to rejoin them before moving (preferred) or repairing after the fact (e.g. my script) which I can go into if needed.

  • Installation fails looking for

    I'm trying to install 10g. I keep getting an error part way through. The installation program seems to be looking for the file change_on_install.DMP, which is not where the log file says it ought to be. I've tried ignoring the error, but the installation seems to hang up with the message legend "Clone database creation in progress" at 46%. I've tried the enterprise and personal versions on the off chance that size matters. I've searched through the intallation files for "change_on_install.DMP." Nada. Here are what I think are the relevant log entries:
    ERROR at line 1:

    That file doesn't even exist. That seems to be the main problem.

  • Update failed looking for Status.msi

    I recently downloaded and attempted to install an update to improve USB connectivity for my C6280 All-In-One printer.  The update failed because something called Status.msi could not be located.
    Now, everytime I start my computer an Windows installation box pops-up still looking for Status.msi.  I have to cancel it 15-20 times before it fianally stops popping up.
    I tried to get help fron the HP on-line chat techs but the one I got was absolutely worthless.  It was obvious he never understood what the problem was.
    I am not overly endowed with in-depth computer knowledge so any sugggestions need to be on as simple a level as possible.
    I am using a Dell Dimension C521 with Vista Home Premium.  My printer is a Photosmart C6280 All-in-one.
    At this point I would be happy to just get the installation box to quit popping up. 
    Thanks in advance.

    Insert the installation cd for your printer. Now in the CD contents, open the location setup\status, now right click on Status.msi and click on repair. It may ask you to restart the PC.
     If this doesn't work, then when you get the "installation box", then click on the Browse button and locate the status.msi file on the CD in the same location, and the box shouldnt reappear.

  • Installation of Blackberry Desktop Software fails: looking for Blackberry 8310.msi file

    I cannot successfully install and use any version of the Blackberry Desktop software.  The problem started when I tried to install the desktop software on my new computer from a file I downloaded and stored on an external hard drive that had been attached to my old computer.  The install/uninstall programs lists Blackberry desktop 4.2.2.  It appeared to install correctly, but when I try to use it,  I get a message saying the program is trying to use a network resource that is not available, and looks in a temp directory for this "Blackberry 8310.msi" file.  There is also a program listed as "Blackberry v4.2.2 for the 8310 series wireless handheld"  When I try to uninstall it, it looks for that same .msi file.
    I'd like to be able to sync my calendar with my phone. 
    Does anyone know what I should do?  I followed the clean uninstall directions, and that didn't make a difference.
    Thanks.

    Xandrex, I am having the same problem (along with a few others).  I hate to sound like a novice, but how do I decompress into a folder other than temp?  Whether installing from the website, or saving to my desktop and then installing, it unzips without giving me a choice of where to put the files.
    Hello,
    I don't have the install at home so my answer will be approximate. when you get the .exe file, it is in fact a zip file with a small launcher that knows it has to unzip the stuff in your temp file.
    What you need is a decompression tool to decompress without that launcher. You can install 7Zip that is quite good for those things.
    You can also try WinZIP or winRAR or winACE but those are not free-of-charge.
     http://www.7-zip.org/
    Once you have installed this tool, just open 7Zip and browse to the .exe file. click on it, there should be a button "Extract". Choose a folder (somewhere on your Desktop for example) and wait for the decompression to finish.

    Well, first, just make sure it's the Mac version and not the Windows version (which indeed would not run on your Mac). You say "Windows Office" which is why I mention it. I think you probably just mean "Microsoft Office" though.
    Next, is this on a disk (DVD), or did you purchase and download it from the Microsoft site?

    Hello All, Need your assistance
    We are creating a physical standby database (standalone) from 2 node RAC database, OS =RHEL5 and DB =11gR2
    What we did: We took RMAN backup of primary DB along with archives and copied to standby server in same location. We have modified necessory prameters on primary as well as standby too.

    Voicemail is through your carrier and on their equipment.

  • Please help! Looking for script to insert current date on page.

    I currently use a Dreamweaver Extension that lets you insert
    current date and time on your web page.
    The problem is, I don't know Javascript and cannot edit the
    Javascript codes to "remove the time"
    I only need the current date that will change every day.
    Do you know where I can get this script, I goggled and got
    several but I'm looking for something authentic.
    Also is it possible to have your page validate when you use
    Javascript embedded in your HTML?
    Thanks everyone,

    JavaScript generates the date by using the clock on the
    computer of each
    visitor to your site. If a visitor's clock has the wrong
    date, your site
    will also display the wrong date.

    I don't know what you mean by "authentic". Date generation in
    JavaScript
    is one of the most basic features of the language, so if it
    works, it's
    "authentic".
    > Also is it possible to have your page validate when you
    use Javascript
    > embedded in your HTML?
    Yes, but you shouldn't embed JavaScript in XHTML.

    Would you recommend it?
    I could use PHP but I don't know PHP,
    How do I come up with the string in this format, say,

    Hi, I'm currently browsing the web looking for a case that is compatible with the smart cover for the iPad 2. If anyone has any suggestions I would be glad to read all opinions! Thanks!

    I love the Smart Cover. It fits the way I work and I love the instant on/off and the always available screen protection. I wouldn't use my iPad without it.
    I got a Cover Buddy for the back, because I wanted the back to be less slippery when I'm using the iPad in the classroom, teaching. I picked this back cover because it's VERY lightweight, easy to get on or off and, protects the corners, has accurate cutouts for the ports, and (in the colors) has a rubberized surface:
    http://www.switcheasy.com/products/CoverBuddy/
    I have a Built NY "hoody" slip on case with a hard internal shell that I use when I'm in the field and I can put the iPad with the Smart Cover and the Cover Buddy inside this . But for everyday use, the Smart Cover with the Cover Buddy is a terrific combination.
