Are you using the latest version off of the git tree or the version tagged v2.6.28?  There was a fix applied 13 days ago to the git tree version which resolves an issue with uninitialized memory being used in configuring the skbedit action.  This was causing "File Exists" errors similar to what you are seeing now.

Thanks,

Alex
