    Are you running in archivelog mode?

    you can check by typing in:

    archive log list; (svrmgrl)

    and is automatic archiving set:

    archive log start; (svrmgrl as well)

    Good Luck

    did you uncomment the 3 parameters in the init.ora related to the archiving.. if you did that after you made it archive did you bounce the db.. ??
    Thx..

    Yes , below is a extract out of the inti.ora file

    ##### For archiving if ARCHIVELOG is on ########
    LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST =D:\orant\database\archive
    LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT =arc%S.%T
    LOG_ARCHIVE_BUFFERS =4

    you also need

    log_archive_start = true

    for automatic archiving.

    The error 'cannot allocate new log, archival required' suggests that your redo log files are small in size. You will tend to see this during a bulk insert/delete or during an import. Increase the size of the redo log files.
