Re: IO Error ORA-01114: IO error writing block to file %s (block # %s)

perhaps the file belonged to an undo tablespace. can you take the file# returned in the error message and examine v$datafile for what file it is?
perhaps this is on win32, and a backup operation that doesn't play nicely with oracle has that file locked. if this is the case, a server reboot followed by bringing that datafile online should get you back in the ball game, but it might be a small part of a larger problem.

as Daniel stated, without the proper information describing the environment, all we can do is postulate.
