ORA-01205: not a data file - type number in header is string..

Answer / guest

Cause: The file type in the header is not correct for a data
file. This is probably a log file or controlfile. If the
type is not a small non-zero positive number then the header
is corrupted.

Action: Restore a copy of the correct data file and do
recovery as needed.
