can't open database after restore

Hi everyone,
I have a large database that is used by our online learning software. At
some point a couple classes were deleted by an application
administrator. I have been trying to recover the classes by restoring
the entire database onto our test database server (different machine)
via RMAN, but have not been able to open the database once the
restore/recover is complete.
The restore seemed to go well, but the recover threw errors (unable to
find archive logs), which isn't surprising because no archivelogs could
be retrieved. I am running archivelog mode, and archivelogs are being
backed up, but the media manager can't find the particular logs that are
needed.
Is there any way to get the database running without having to apply
these missing logs?
My goal is just to have a working copy of the database. I don't care
about recovering to the latest point in time - I only want to be able
to start up the database so we can extract the data from the missing
classes.
Nothing I try seems successfully to open the database:
SQL> alter database open resetlogs;
alter database open resetlogs
