ORA-38735: Wrong log number string in flashback log file header.

Reason for the Error

The log file number in the flashback database log file did not match the control file.

Solution

If you are doing a FLASHBACK DATABASE, then the flashback cannot be performed because of the corrupted log. A restore and an incomplete recovery must be performed instead.
