ORA-01207: file is more recent than control file - old control file
 *Cause:  The control file change sequence number in the data file is
         greater than the number in the control file. This implies that
         the wrong control file is being used. Note that repeatedly causing
         this error can make it stop happening without correcting the real
         problem. Every attempt to open the database will advance the
         control file change sequence number until it is great enough.
 *Action: Use the current control file or do backup control file recovery to
         make the control file current. Be sure to follow all restrictions
         on doing a backup control file recovery.

Regards
Michel
