When I tried to checkout RTC SMC using Team concert plugin in Jenkins the following error is thrown.
But the checkout is working fine before with the same workspace. Please suggest what could be the problem.

The problem in the original questions basically was due to the fact that the fetch destination was not empty or the fetch would overwrite information that was already on the local disc.

It is really not that hard to read that in the error message at all. 

 RTC : checkout failure: Loading the directories in the file system would overwrite/remove existing directories.
Loading the directories in the file system would overwrite/remove existing directories.
/.project (requested to be loaded from both component Build_Tools and VehDev)
There could be many reasons why this happens. For example if Jenkins always reuses one workspace. It is unlikely that the reason for this can be found after all that time, so I will close this item.

Hi,

i don't know if it helps because your question was months ago, but i got the same error when the JDK install directory was not properly set in the jenkins system configuration.

After setting the correct jdk install home everything worked fine again.

I would expect different messages if the JDK was missing, but you never know.

Ok, this is quite old, but still somebody might find it and have the same problem.
I guess you're using a loadrule to load your components.

The log actually gives you a hint: 
Contains : 0 /.project (requested to be loaded from both component Build_Tools and VehDev)
So, you try to load two components "Build_Tools" and "VehDev". That can have two reasons:
  1. Your LoadRule specifies the same target location for the content of both components. This is fairly unlikely as you would have the same behaviour in e.g. Eclipse and not only in Jenkins
  2. You don't mention these components in the loadrule at all. Eclipse will then not load those, while the Jenkins TeamConcert plugin (at least still in V1.2.0.0) will load them nevertheless, albeit without a target directory.
    But where to, I hear you ask? To the root of your sandbox. Both components hold a .project file, both these files would be loaded into the same location. Hence the conflict.
The same error can appear if you don't use a loadrule and try to load flat. Then, the content of the components will be loaded into one directory, causing the same effect.

 Hi,
I have the same issue. I understand that the thread is dead, but it is the only place, where I was able to find this error message - "Loading the directories in the file system would overwrite/remove existing directories". I installed and added a correspondent entry in Jenkins both for jenkins master and slaves. The error message remained... 
Any help, please?
