Error during deploy: Object already exists on path

[Jim.T]

Hello, during deployment of my solution I keep getting the error “Object already exists on path”.

I have attached my solution, and these are the log messages that I got:

Checking application...
Compiling...
Warning: Unassigned IO point detected. Please allocate. Server 1 / VS01 / VS01-GT11 - Tilloppsgivare primärsida

Hello, thank you for your question.

Regarding the “Object already exists on path” error it most likely appears because you have multiple components with the same name in your solution. In this case I would guess you have two separate components named “VS01-GT11” leading to a naming conflict since EBO does not allow multiple objects with the same name on the same path.

If you can’t find any components with the same names in your solution, check that no objects are already present on the server at the path provided in the error message.
