Ron,
Are you running under NT? If so, try and stop and restart the services. I
have seen something similar. The error really was not with the control
files, but some hidden "handle" that the services actually locked.

I did a complete recovery of an Oracle instance. Everything looked great
but when I bounced the instance
and tried to bring it back up I got the following Oracle error. I have
checked everything. There are no other
instances running.
Any ideas?
Ron
