ovs-controller and Floodlight are two different OpenFlow controllers. I didn't see any references to ovs-controller until the error message you showed at the end. It appears to me it wasn't invoked properly and didn't have "ptcp:" or something similar as an argument. However, it's not clear from your message that you really intended to run ovs-controller.
