Can't overwrite file

Summary

Problem

This is a bit of an odd one, but recording here in case it happens again:

Attempting to write to this specific, existing file in the current app's directory fails:

Same when hardcoding the file name. Only this path, no others. Issue persists after hard restarts. Removing and re-adding the file resolved the issue.

Also odd that it's complaining about a directory. In Drive, there is a file at this path, but not a directory.

Impact

Hard blocks applications from writing to a path without manual intervention.

Solution

Keep an eye on this in case it happens again. I don't even have steps to reproduce it!
