Without knowing more about your specific configuration, I can only offer a few suggestions. First, make sure your archive_log_dest has enough free space to receive new logs. If there is not enough free space, you can remove old archived redo logs from before you most recent full backup. It is also a good idea to back up your archived redo logs before you remove them, just in case you ever need them.
