The source 9i is on RHEL 4 (32-bit) and target 10g is on RHEL 5 (64-bit)

please repost listing the operating system.
Also, check the metalink doc on changing the database word size.
you will need to run /rdbms/admin/utlirp.sql prior to upgrading the word size.

Hi,

I took a cold backup of 9i datafiles and copied them to the new 10g 64-bit 
server
I installed the 10g 64-bit Oracle Home

On the new 10g server,

I recreated the controlfile to point to the new location of the datafiles and 
ran
SQL> startup upgrade

It failed saying that database should be open in resetlogs or no resetlogs mode

I shutdown the db and did a startup mount and
SQL>alter database open resetlogs;

This time it failed saying that database should be opened in upgrade option.

I am unable to proceed with the upgrade.  Anyone ever faced this issue?

Regards,
Ashwin
