I've not seen this bug earlier, seems to be relatively new. See also bug #200512. However, I've not created the folder again as a file. Seems to be wrong error message for non-existing file. Probably some module tries to access a file, while NB did not notice that it's deleted.

The folder has been deleted by Ant, so I'd guess it's deleted externally (from NBs point of view): The FileObject and DataObject still may exist, while it's already gone. However, NB should notice it does no more exist instead of saying, it's not a folder any more - probably there's a test like "object.isFolder()" which returns false, because the folder doesn't exist.

I've never seen sth. like this for files, so there's probably some other method used to detect what's going on - or the folder's listener has been changed to not fire the corresponding events correctly.
