Any help? I have already set read / write rigts to all files and folders in the project.

Answer 1

I had the same problem. For me, the solution was to run play clean and recompile the project.

Answer 2

This is not about your codebase but something about SBT not being able to read your filesystem, could be something with missing permissions, directories deleted from under sbt. Make sure you have read and write permissions to the filesystem where you have your project and that its not out of free space etc.

Answer 3

SBT (the build tool used by Play) is trying to compile your file, but it can't access the filesystem, e.g. if the code is on an external hard drive that has been unmounted.
