Fix ORA-01139: RESETLOGS option only valid after an incomplete database recovery

While shutting down my TEST database process was hanged. Then I had to use shutdown abort. But when I wanted to start database it did not open.


 SQL> select name from v$database;  
 NAME  
 ---------  
 TEST

SQL> shut abort;  
 ORACLE instance shut down.  
 SQL> startup mount  
 ORACLE instance started.  
 Total System Global Area 6597406720 bytes

 Redo Buffers            18468864 bytes

 SQL> alter database open;  
 alter database open  
 *  
 ERROR at line 1:  
 ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel  
 Process ID: 6552  
 Session ID: 191 Serial number: 3 

 What`s wrong? 

 SQL> alter database open resetlogs;  
 ERROR:   
 ORA-03114: not connected to ORACLE  

SQL> exit
Disconnected from Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.4.0 - 64bit Production

And instance got down

Tried to reset logs

SQL> alter database open resetlogs;  
 alter database open resetlogs  
 *  
 ERROR at line 1:  
 ORA-01139: RESETLOGS option only valid after an incomplete database recovery 

Unsuccessful...
Let`s recover database 

SQL> recover database until cancel;  
 Media recovery complete.  

Now, try to open with resetlogs

 SQL> alter database open resetlogs;  
 Database altered. 


Done, now it works
