Solution 1:

Your custom option(s) might conflict with your already set
option(s). Bring up your command lines by clicking on utilities->command
preview from flow engine window. Check whether the you've set map to
target two different device and remove the customize setting.



Solution 2:

Also make sure the project directory has only 1 edn file and isn't too deep. If
there's more than 1 edn file, the error message appears.
