Yes. Streams replication can span versions however the souce must be
the lower of the two releases. Were you running Streams from 11.1 to
11.2 you'd see no error messages and the apply process would run
without issue. You're asking Oracle 11.1 to be forward compatible
with 11.2 and that cannot happen.
