RMAN invalid blocksize 0 in backup piece header ORA-19608, ORA-19837

Hello Gurus

I am trying to setup RMAN backup/restore duplication etc in a Windows 2012 R2 setup. I have two servers both running the same OS and have 2 filesystems E: (Oracle software and data files) and H: (backup files.)

So I take a backup using the script below on Server1:

run

{

allocate channel C1 device type disk;

backup format 'H:\rmanbackup\df_testdb%t_s%s_p%p.bak' database;

sql 'alter system archive log current';

backup format 'H:\rmanbackup\arc_testdb%t_s%s_p%p.arc' archivelog all;

release channel C1;

}

Transfer the backup to Server2 at the same location and try a duplication. THe init file on server2 has appropriate *.db_file_name_convert parameter.
