   -> Cannot deploy two applications with identical application aliases (context roots). Your application [sap.com/tc~lm~ctc~cul~startup_app] defines an application alias (context root) [cfgs] that is already in use by application [sap.com/tc~lm~ctc~confs~startup_app]. There are two possibilities in order to proceed with deployment: 1) Define different application alias (context root) for your application [sap.com/tc~lm~ctc~cul~startup_app] (this is the preferred option). 2) Undeploy the application [sap.com/tc~lm~ctc~confs~startup_app].
