Does /opt/qtp-sandbox/boot/.qtp-sandbox exist? The existence of this hidden
file is how the scripts (are supposed to) tell if /opt/qtp-sandbox is a
sandbox or not. If the file exists, then this message is a bug. If it
doesn't exist (and never did), this is a bug too. If you somehow removed the
(apparently empty, but it's not) boot/ directory from the sandbox, that
would cause this error.

If the rest of your sandbox is safely intact, you could
# mkdir -p /opt/qtp-sandbox/boot
# touch /opt/qtp-sandbox/boot/.qtp-sandbox
to restore the directory and file.

The safest bet would be to
# rm -rf /opt/qtp-sandbox
and let newmodel recreate it. If you still get this message, then there's a bug.

BTW, I did find and fix (just now) a bug with this. If you happen to change
the sandbox name to something other than qtp-sandbox, it would fail with the
message you're getting. It doesn't appear that you've changed this value though.

Let me know what your situation is.
