    • Type: Bug
    • Resolution: Won't Fix
    • Priority: Low
    • None
    • Affects Version/s: 2.8
    • Component/s: None
    • Environment:

      Tomcat 5.5, JDK 1.5 64-bit

      There exists a page "Foo" in a space called "Space 1."

      If I choose to copy (by clicking Copy) that page to "Space 2," the system suggests a name "Copy of Foo" (or similar, all's fine so far.)

      While still in the edit mode, I change the title back to "Foo" and choose a destination space of "Space 2" and click save, the system reports that "There already exists a page "Foo" in space "Space 1"" (or similar.) Which is kinda silly as I'm not creating that page to Space 1, but to Space 2.

      To make this work I need to first create the copy, and then rename it to "Foo."

      Not a biggy, but seriously annoying as it misleads innocent users.
