RMAN-06024 during duplicate database for standby

If you get RMAN-06024 when running "duplicate target database for standby" and you are sure you have run a "backup current controlfile for standby" then try doing a log switch on the target database to fix the issue.

RMAN-06024: no backup or copy of the control file found to restore

This is NOT a bug and published on MOS - 466321.1

You can read the reason of getting this "foolish" error ...

it seems that it doesnt work if your target db is on 32bit and the auxiliary is on a 64bit.

i followed all the docs that talks about creating a standby but i hit a wall when i run 'duplicate' command.
it's a 10gr2.

any ideas?
