I tried crosscheck and delete obsolete, delete expired ... and it did not help!
Use crosscheck copy before deleting:

RMAN&gt;crosscheck copy
RMAN&gt;delete noprompt obsolete;


Crosscheck on it's own (without copy) doesn't do anything.  You could also have done:

crosscheck backuppiece papcfat0_1_1
