I am trying to create a new project from existing source code. I keep getting the following error: "Invalid Project Description", project path "overlaps the location of another project" with the same name. The reason is that I created that project from the source code before, but then I deleted that project and deleted its whole directory, before adding the source code directory again. I tried everything like cleaning and restarting, but nothing worked. I looked in my workspace directory, but there are no traces for the old project. There are several questions around this problem such as this Attempting Android Notepad Tutorial - Exercise 1 - More problems, but none of the answers worked for me!

我摆脱了我的问题通过改变文件>工作空间,然后,重新启动后,重新设置工作空间。

这个问题也快把我逼疯了,但我知道原因是什么。问题是eclipse不够聪明,不能在自定义的工作空间文件夹中创建与项目同名的文件夹。

解决这个问题的方法是确保你所有的项目都在一个与你的项目名称匹配的文件夹中,否则它会直接将你所有的项目文件转储到这个目录中。您最终看到这个错误的原因是因为它认为您正在将一个项目放在另一个项目中(可能读取了项目配置文件)。

I noticed this is especially a problem when not using the default workspace path. The way I solve this problem is to just add the Project Name to the end of location. So let's say you are putting a project named "HelloWorld" into /Users/name/Documents/projects/android/, you would want to manually add "HelloWorld" to the end of it, like this: /Users/name/Documents/projects/android/HelloWorld. This would ensure that the project is put in it's own folder called "HelloWorld" and not inside some other project. Be sure that if there are any projects not within folders into a folder of the same name as the project to solve the errors.

解决这个问题最简单的方法就是将项目移动到另一个文件夹并导入。这是因为您已经在该文件夹中有了该项目(或具有相同名称的项目)。当您删除project时,eclipse仍然保留对它的引用

以下是我做的非常有效的方法。我只是在通用下导入了一个现有的项目,而不是导入一个android项目。

我在Linux中遇到过这个问题,我重命名、删除并重新导入了一个项目。在.metadata的某个地方,它显然还在那里。

我最终通过以下步骤解决了这个问题:

close Eclipse
mv .metadata .metadata_orig
start Eclipse
reset default workspace
reimport projects

这可能并不适用于每个人,特别是如果您已经在多个工作区中有许多项目。但是如果您习惯了重新配置Eclipse(我每次升级到下一个Eclipse版本时都会这样做),那就不太糟糕了。
