000116 : There are two datasets with the same catalog path. Check the data type to get the proper dataset.

Description

There are two datasets with the same path. For instance, it is possible in a geodatabase to have a feature dataset and a stand-alone feature class with the same name. This can create confusion in some operations when trying to determine which is the appropriate choice.

Solution

It is best practice to keep names unique. Consider renaming one of the two datasets. Some tools will provide the option to specify the data type to help ensure the correct dataset is chosen. Use this functionality if available.
