I just tried CS5 and did a quick getFiles test and it opened the aep just fine. Does the path it shows in the error actually match the location of the AEP? Also check to see if the AEP will open manually and is not corrupt.

var f = Folder.selectDialog("Choose Folder");

var gf = f.getFiles();

app.open(gf[0]);     //Assumes the first file in the folder is an AEP
