cannot be added because it is already mapped to the entity class and the entity is not in current project source

Question

I think there might be a problem with the cache in Netbeans, which is causing a problem in creating a new Entity Classes from Database....

Netbeans error:

clients cannot be added because it is already mapped to the net.bounceme.dur.jpa.Client entity class and the entity is not in current project source.

cannot be added

Note that this is using the resource jdbc/ejb.

the persistence.xml generated by the IDE:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

A different resource, on the glassfish server, might not be directly related:

thufir@dur:~/NetBeansProjects$ 
thufir@dur:~/NetBeansProjects$ /home/thufir/glassfish-4.1/glassfish/bin/asadmin

although I think those resources on the glassfish server are unrelated, but there might be some interplay.

I've looked in:

thufir@dur:~$ 
thufir@dur:~$ ls /home/thufir/.netbeans

thufir@dur:~$ 
thufir@dur:~$ ls /home/thufir/netbeans-8.0.1/

cannot be added because it is already mapped to the entity class and the entity is not in current project source
