What did you do before you shutdown the database? Looks like you are pointing at the wrong online redo logs. Either you have overwritten them (but this seems unlikley since the sequence number it is grabbing is *higher* than the one it is expecting...), or you have moved them but not renamed them in the database, or you renamed them in the database to an incorrect location.
