Without having better information (i.e. I assume you are running Oracle between 8.1.6 and 8.1.7.2), I would say that you are running into bug 1467871 fixed in 9i and patched in 8.1.7.3 and 4. The work around is to recreate your control file, thus loosing all your backup information stored in the control file. You can capture this information manually via a controlfile dump, but it isn't of much use to you (and besides that it can reoccur if you don't apply the patch). Not necessarily a horrid problem, but certainly good to move past.
You should upgrade to 8.1.7.3 (or 9i) and then upgrade your catalog in order to avoid this problem in the future. You need to upgrade your catalog after applying the patchset:
RMAN> CONNECT CATALOG <user/passwd@catalog>
RMAN> UPGRADE CATALOG;

when I try to register my database in RMAN, I get the following error..

RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03008: error while performing automatic resync of recovery catalog
RMAN-07004: unhandled exception during command execution on channel default
RMAN-10035: exception raised in RPC: ORA-01403: no data found
RMAN-10031: ORA-1403 occurred during call to DBMS_RCVCAT.CHECKBACKUPPIECE
does anyone know how to get around this problem...I have an ITAR open with oracle right now and wanted to try this forum while I am waiting on a resolution.
