Nuala,
It looks like the DB is waiting for you to manually archive the logs. Like Lisa suggested, could you do an archive log list from the sqlplus prompt and post the results? There are two steps in setting up archiving. You have to set the proper parameters in the init.ora file, and then bring the db up in mount mode to start the archiver before you open the database.
