ORA-01674: data file string is an old incarnation rather than current file

Reason for the Error

Recovery encountered redo that indicates this file was dropped from the database and another file was added using the same file number. This implies that a CREATE CONTROLFILE command was given the old file which was dropped rather than the latest file.

Solution

Rebuild the control file using CREATE CONTROLFILE, and give the correct file.
