   While trying to duplicate a form, the following error pops up:

   *********************************************

   Error! Unable to duplicate. Please try again.

   *********************************************

   When I refresh the admin page, the new form (copy) does appear and functions normally.

   Hmm... is it possible for you to paste the error log from the PHP on your server?

   Sure can:

   [15-Apr-2012 10:57:18] PHP Warning: mkdir() [<a href='function.mkdir'>function.mkdir</a>]: File exists in /path-to-forms/duplicate_form.php on line 214

   A possible explanation is that you are copying a form that contains entries, specifically with uploaded files, and the duplication of the form is not actually copying the uploaded files from data/form_x/files. but is just warning you there are existing uploaded files in the data/form_x/files folder. data/forms_x/files and its contents is not copied in the duplicate process; the system just creates a new folder under the new form_X folder.

   [15-Apr-2012 10:57:18] PHP Warning: mkdir() [<a href='function.mkdir'>function.mkdir</a>]: File exists in /path-to-forms/duplicate_form.php on line 214

   The message is only a warning but nonetheless, can probably be turned off through some PHP setting e.g. in the php.ini file (if you have access to change it - ask your Host about that).

   However I'm not sure where the "Error! Unable to Duplicate. Please try again" is coming from - maybe a user-friendly error based on the PHP warning?

   I don't see either error whey I duplicate forms within my installation (Machform 3.1).

   I just tried to copy a basic form with no uploaded files and no entries...the same error occurred. After refreshing the page, the admin does display a copied version.

   I checked the files and noticed that the "Error! Unable to duplicate. Please try again." error seems to be generated from the js/form_manager.js file.

   This seems to be a small bug which happened when you have many forms, deleted some of it and then duplicate a form. The fix is quite simple.
   I'll send the file to your email.
