The package fails after the first IF statement because the directory in the server that it is deploying to does not exist BUT the directory in the else statement DOES exist.

Is there a way to get around this with maybe bypassing the first if? The statement itself should not be failing at that point since it is an IF statement.

Plurals are often your friend. Try something like

exists files "X" of folders "Y"
In your clause instead
