[opencms-dev] problem with permissions

[Christoph Kukulies]

It turned out that the problem is not telated with certain roles the 
user has, moreover it also happens
when I do the database import as user Admin.

I'm getting:

Importing/galleries/content-e/Index-e.gif ... Exception 
org.opencms.file.CmsVfsResourceAlreadyExistsException: Error creating 
resource "/galleries/content-e/Index-e.gif" on path 
"/sites/company/galleries/content-e/Index-e.gif".
at 
org.opencms.file.CmsVfsResourceAlreadyExistsException.createException(CmsVfsResourceAlreadyExistsException.java:77)
at org.opencms.db.CmsDbContext.throwException(CmsDbContext.java:238)
at org.opencms.db.CmsDbContext.report(CmsDbContext.java:212)

org.opencms.db.CmsSecurityManager.importResource(CmsSecurityManager.java:2638)

org.opencms.file.types.A_CmsResourceType.importResource(A_CmsResourceType.java:495)
at 
org.opencms.file.types.CmsResourceTypeImage.importResource(CmsResourceTypeImage.java:341)

It may come from the fact that the target site is a copy of the intranet 
site.
Or what might lead to a CmsVfsResourceAlreadyExistsException ?
