This error generally means that the old named is still running. Try
'rndc stop', and then do 'ps -ax | grep named'. If you still see
something running do '/etc/rc.d/named stop' check ps again, then when
you're sure no other named is running do '/etc/rc.d/named start'

run named-checkconf to be sure that's not your problem.
