Answer 1

It seems you mess up with the config folder.

1. take the backup of the current config folder
2. delete the current config folder
3. run ant all and follow the instructions, Hybris will generate config folder again
4. From the backup config folder, restore your project-specific files like local.properteis, localextensions.xml etc
5. run ant clean all

Now you are good to go
