There also is a maxdatafiles setting at creation of the database.
Apparently db_files should be <= maxdatafiles and you have reached the
maxdatafiles limit.
If you have 7.3 or higher you could resize one of your files with alter
database datafile <> resize <>.
Otherwise... yes, recreate the database.
