Description

1. New Project > Java with Maven > Project from Archetype
2. Search for jersey
3. Select the first jersey-quickstart-archetype archetype item (group id: org.glassfish.jersey.archetypes version: 2.30)
4. Press Next
5. Choose foobar as Project Name
6. Fill the other field and choose an empty directory as Project Location
7. Press Finish

The project generation fails complaining a folder with name foobar exists. An empty foobar folder is left in the choosen project location.

Probably the Maven from archetype wizard creates the folder prior to maven archetype execution.

Not sure if this can be considered a bug in the jersey archetype instead.
