RMAN> run {allocate channel c1 type disk format 'd:\oracle\backup';
2> backup database;}

RMAN-03022: compiling command: allocate
RMAN-03026: error recovery releasing channel resources
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============

Are you using a recovery catalog?

You format isn't a valid format, but I still don't understand why it's complaining about a recovery catalog.

I don't believe 8i RMAN allowed for using CONFIGURE CHANNEL, not to mention the ALLOCATE CHANNEL would override the configured channel anyway.
