RTC EE build failure: how to remove extra .projects?

Hello,

   We have a big problem which is stopping the normal RTC EE build processing we have for our product (tws for z/os) and we need to solve it as soon as possible. So I really hope someone could help me to understand how to fix it.

Build is failing because of the following error:

* BUILD FAILED

……….

* Caused by: com.ibm.teamz.fileagent.FileAgentRepositoryException: CRHTC0202E An error occurred while fetching contents from the twsbuild on tws_93_zos_core workspace to the following data set: TWSZ.WCOR.

………..

* Caused by: com.ibm.team.filesystem.client.FileSystemStatusException: Status WARNING: com.ibm.team.filesystem.client code=2 Loading the directories in the file system would overwrite/remove existing directories. null children=[Status WARNING: com.ibm.team.filesystem.client code=0 /.project (requested to be loaded from both component twsz00_mcsllr and twsz00_waplrex) null]

So I go to check what was wrong with component “twsz00_mcsllr” and “twsz00_waplrex” and  try to understand why this time there was a directory conflict (we run the build every time with success until now..)

The only thing I could find unusual respect to all the other components was that both had an extra .project file: this extra .poject file can be seen only if I start from RTC EE Source Control – show repository files but cannot be seen or manipulated from my local workspace aligned with last changes ( accepted all changes).

I suspect that these extra .project are the cause of failure: waplrex .project was added the 18 of march but no problem occurred in build process until the second one for mcsllr .project was added on  3 of april when build started to fail.

Now my problem is: how can I delete these projetcs? I cannot see or manipulate them from my workspace. I still have to check the original local workspace that originated the extra .project (it is not on my thinkpad) but once I can access it, how can I remove these extra .projects?

I know that components cannot be deleted but only “removed” but I’m not sure this would solve the problem and I we need these components….

Please any suggestion is welcome! I saw an append about the renaming with quotes of “projects” but it is not clear to me how can I apply this in my situation, unless until I have no possibility to manipulate .projects at all (maybe from originating workspace?).

I really need a solution, please help!.

Thanks a lot

Ciao
