Oracle Database 11g Express Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - 64bit Production
Linux 3.14.27-100.fc19.x86_64

Ultimately, I want to get the I/O error fixed, but I need to try and understand what I am seeing.

While developing an Apex application, I am getting:
Unable to create the Report page.ORA-01115: IO error reading block from file (block # ) ORA-01110: data file 2: '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/XE/sysaux.dbf' ORA-27072: File I/O error Additional information: 4 Additional information: 105600 Additional information: 12288

So now the first thing I wamt to do is to backup my db. using Export, I get most of it, but it also confirms that there is a problem:

ORA-31693: Table data object "APEX_050100"."WWV_FLOW_LIST_ITEMS" failed to load/unload and is being skipped due to error:
ORA-02354: error in exporting/importing data
ORA-01115: IO error reading block from file  (block # )
ORA-01110: data file 2: '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/XE/sysaux.dbf'
ORA-27072: File I/O error
Additional information: 4
Additional information: 105600
Additional information: 12288

This is the problem I need to fix, and the chase begins.
There is no db backup to restore the dbf from, so after a lot of surfing I decide that rman is the correct way to investigate.

RMAN> validate database;

RMAN> list failure;

no failures found that match specification

Don't know why RMAN doesn't see an issue.
The next thing I look at is if i'm out of disk space

$ df /u01
Filesystem                     1K-blocks     Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg_locutus-lv_root  51540604 23708076  27291944  47% /

That seems good. Next look at filesystem permissions

$ ll

-rw-r-----. 1 oracle dba  104865792 Mar 25 14:44 users.dbf

Again, ok. More surfing. Next I look at the alert log, and find (among others)

Is it possible there is a problem with the log files ?
$ ls -alrt /u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/XE/onlinelog

Now, this is confusing, because there are more log files than oracle has configured.
Are these junk, or does this point to the root cause. Can these logs be used to rebuild my dbf file?

SQL>  SELECT log_mode FROM v$database;
