It complains:
mv: cannot move `file1' to `file2': File exists
1) Are the 2 files on the same drive?
2) Are one or both on a remote system (sounds like the target it
but just being sure)
3) What OS running on the fileserver that you are copying to? Windows
or *nix?
[....]
But if cp can't remove the file (like it used to being able to do on an *nix
based machine,
then from it's perspective, it can't copy into the new file because it already
exists.
With no further follow-ups in 5 years, I'm closing this bug.
