What did you do that you think stopped the agent?

My guess is you stopped some other agent in some other directory based on your path.

cd $OMA_HOME/bin       -- go to the home directory
pwd                    -- verify you are really there

./emctl stop agent
./emctl status agent

On my list of egregious Oracle design errors has been that they put emctl into every home directory they could spell. ;-)
