    The error messages are telling you what is wrong.  In the first one, it is attempting to create a subdirectory that already exists.  Same thing with the second error message.  Unfortunately I am not familiar with the scripts you are running so can't be much more help.

  • Just plucking out the relative bits:

    'Cannot create a file when that file already exists.'

    'Cannot create a file when that file already exists'

    You just need to read through the error messages. It's a mess, but it usually has english inside that makes sense.
