I have checked the error.  
It happens when you recreate the db for same language.  
For e.g. if you have created database for Japanese language from `jpn_sentences.tsv` and again try to create same db for that file then the error shows as it already exists.

To remove error do either of following

1. Rename the tsv file and try again  
For e.g. rename `jpn_sentences.tsv` with `jpn_sentences123.tsv`

or

1. Delete the generated language db from addons folder  
View lang\_db in Sentence adder addons folder in Anki2 directory

In next update I will implement to handle these errors.
