Copy page to another recently created space is not possible

      A few days before updating Confluence from 5.10 to 5.10.1, i was creating a new space DOCS55.
      Then i started to copy pages from the space DOCS to DOCS55. Worked all fine, no problem.

      Since the update to Confluence 5.10.1 - when i try to copy a page from DOCS to DOCS55, the UI to Copy doesn't find the space DOCS55. The field to select the space is a "autocomplete select field". When i manually add the space DOCS55 and the parent page to copy to - the button Move - to execute the copy is disabled.

      As a consequence we cannot use the copy function anymore for the "new space".

      By the way ... the issue seems a bit similar to another one - CONF-43037 - which i have reported a few days ago.

      This is really blocker for us.
      I guess i could copy pages with the CLI, i have to try it out. However, not all of our editors can use the CLI.

            Hi Brendan

            I just was trying to reproduce it myself to create some screenshots.
            Apparently i cannot reproduce it ... so ... probably i had a very day when i was reporting the issue.
            I'm very sorry for making this "noise". Just close the ticket.

            Hi christoph.meier1,

            I have tried to reproduce this and even with your clarification I am still not able to produce any error when the page and space name are the same. The only time I get an error is when a page with the name I am attempting to copy/move already exists in the target space. Are you able to confirm that a page with the same name does not exist already in the target space? If this is not the problem are you please able to provide a screenshot of what you see in the copy dialog?

            Cheers,
            Brendan McNamara,

            I fear my assertion above is wrong.
            Actually Copy page is working. However, it only works, if the Name of the space is distinct from the Key of the space.

            If both Name and Key are equal, then and only then the copy page function will not work.

            Sorry for the noise!
            Do you want me to update the title and the description of the ticket?
