I have some holy water arrows placed in some places of the map, but there is also water arrows available, the thing is that if the player has water arrows and if he/she picks up a hlywater arrow, this holy water arrow become a water arrow only, how can i prevent holy water arrows from being to the same category as water arrows?

Place holy water not holy water arrows.
Seriously.

You need to make holy water arrows their own class, else the game thinks they are water arrows, and they get put into the same space as water arrows. If you do, either replace an existing class with it, like say fire arrows or moss arrows, or tell players to use the weapon change key instead of the numbers.
I'm no Dromed expert though, so ask others how to do it.

Ok i have solved the problem, it was easier than i thought, the holy water arrow was under the water arrow archtype, so i moved the holy water arrow out of it and placed it under projectiles, saved the gamesys and now it works :-)

You do realize this isn't standard practice, right? Normally the player only gets access to holy water arrows by using a vial of holy water and then their water arrows become holy for 30 seconds (which you do by placing holy water as Larry mentioned). If you've done it this way, make sure the player can access them via weapon select and if it's anything not standard, make sure to mention it in the readme.

its very easy to use the holy water arrow, the arrow itself has the name holy water arrow, but i will let the players know it via readables.
