Sources directory is already netbeans project (maybe only in memory).
This error happened to me a few times, and today i found the solution.
Apparentlyit was caused because when trying to add a project to Netbeans, it was creating metadata files and saved them on a fixed location (which was based on the data found in the nbproyect folder)
…so to solve this, i just had to change the location of the creation of this files by checking the box below (i just checked that box and the problem was solved for me, i didn’t had to chose any directory):

I searched all over for a solution for this. Tried several solutions from stackoverflow and all and restarted netbeans several times. nothing worked. Thanks for sharing.

You need to remove ‘nbproject’ directory within your folder structure which is created by NetBeans itself. Once you delete that, you are able to add your project.
Thanks.

Saurabh is rigth. Only delete nbproject folder from your site folder and it works
