When I issue the command:
alter database backup controlfile to trace;
the trace file gets written to the default directory, not the the directory I have set with user_dump_dest (at the end of) the initsid.ora file.
show parameter user_dump_dest verifies the correct directory, yet, the trace still gets written to the original default directory.
Any thoughts?
Thank you...

I should have mentioned that I am running this on W2K. I confirmed in the registry that I am using the correct pfile. I also should have mentioned that I am running Oracle 8.1.7, so there is no spfile issue. I have not had this problem on NT or Unix. I am still at a loss.

That seems to be OK because...
alter database backup controlfile to 'D:destinationcontrolefile.bck' reuse;
works fine. I will probably have to go with this. It's a real puzzle to me why the other way does not work.
