I had the same error once. I never did figure out the exact cause.

What happened to cause this was a problem with creating a log file. The file was created but the instance did not get the proper indication that the file was created. So I had a number of error messages telling me about that problem. Then some time later when the next archive log was due to be cut Oracle tried to create a file with the same sequence number as the failed previous log. Since the file existed, it then reported the error you have.

Did you have any other errors in the log?
