Hello,


I am getting this error: SQL> startup nomount pfile='c:\richard\local\pfile\init.ora'
ORACLE instance started.

SQL> alter database mount standby database;

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00205: error in identifying controlfile, check alert log for more info

the Alert log states:

alter database mount standby database

Wed Mar 24 13:28:38 2004
ORA-00202: controlfile: 'c:\richard\control01.ctl'
ORA-27041: unable to open file
OSD-04002: unable to open file
O/S-Error: (OS 2) The system cannot find the file specified.

Wed Mar 24 13:28:41 2004
ORA-205 signalled during: alter database mount standby database


Does that mean when moving my datafiles, standby control file and my redo log files, I also need to move my control files?
