Maybe because you want to add a new DataStore which indeed already exists,
since you deleted the published Layer only (and not the DataStore entirely).
I don't know how to just publish a Layer from a DataStore via REST (when you
add a DataStore, the Layer is automatically published), that's way I used to
remove the DataStore.

I would be glad to know if there is a way to publish a Layer from a Store in
REST, too.
