Description of problem: Export template (with or without disk) fails. Export domain is empty and has no templates at all, but the error in webadmin is: "Cannot export Template. The Template name is already in use, please choose a unique name and try again." The template is not in use at all at the time of attempt. from engine.log: 2016-04-07 13:37:41,908 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.exportimport.ExportVmTemplateCommand] (default task-6) [c1f01f] Lock Acquired to object 'EngineLock:{exclusiveLocks='[0cb9d169-ea04-4203-bafa-3ecfeffb71b4=<REMOTE_TEMPLATE, ACTION_TYPE_FAILED_TEMPLATE_IS_BEING_EXPORTED$TemplateName bbbb>]', sharedLocks='[0cb9d169-ea04-4203-bafa-3ecfeffb71b4=<TEMPLATE, ACTION_TYPE_FAILED_TEMPLATE_IS_BEING_EXPORTED$TemplateName bbbb>]'}' 2016-04-07 13:37:41,939 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.irsbroker.GetImageInfoVDSCommand] (default task-6) [c1f01f] START, GetImageInfoVDSCommand( GetImageInfoVDSCommandParameters:{runAsync='true', storagePoolId='134f44d1-42c0-4268-9751-375b9246d07b', ignoreFailoverLimit='false', storageDomainId='4ebc1a3a-0973-4316-8be0-f907e8036f6b', imageGroupId='6e76f972-4e15-4b57-a09a-57bdc8ebe4d4', imageId='13714d1e-86ed-46f2-932e-431ceb61768a'}), log id: 763de679 2016-04-07 13:37:42,955 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.irsbroker.GetImageInfoVDSCommand] (default task-6) [c1f01f] FINISH, GetImageInfoVDSCommand, return: org.ovirt.engine.core.common.businessentities.storage.DiskImage@9f1ce592, log id: 763de679 2016-04-07 13:37:42,956 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.irsbroker.GetImagesListVDSCommand] (default task-6) [c1f01f] START, GetImagesListVDSCommand( GetImagesListVDSCommandParameters:{runAsync='true', storagePoolId='134f44d1-42c0-4268-9751-375b9246d07b', ignoreFailoverLimit='false', sdUUID='079c739f-b550-45c1-aa99-40845ee9a8e5'}), log id: 7f3d5478 2016-04-07 13:37:43,965 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.irsbroker.GetImagesListVDSCommand] (default task-6) [c1f01f] FINISH, GetImagesListVDSCommand, return: [9cb0047c-2536-49cb-990c-f7030989e98c], log id: 7f3d5478 2016-04-07 13:37:43,971 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.irsbroker.GetVmsInfoVDSCommand] (default task-6) [c1f01f] START, GetVmsInfoVDSCommand( GetVmsInfoVDSCommandParameters:{runAsync='true', storagePoolId='134f44d1-42c0-4268-9751-375b9246d07b', ignoreFailoverLimit='false', storageDomainId='079c739f-b550-45c1-aa99-40845ee9a8e5', vmIdList='null'}), log id: a8b86da 2016-04-07 13:37:44,981 INFO [org.ovirt.engine.core.vdsbroker.irsbroker.GetVmsInfoVDSCommand] (default task-6) [c1f01f] FINISH, GetVmsInfoVDSCommand, log id: a8b86da 2016-04-07 13:37:44,985 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.bll.exportimport.ExportVmTemplateCommand] (default task-6) [c1f01f] Validation of action 'ExportVmTemplate' failed for user admin@internal.

Try to export template - do not choose 'force override' option. Actual results: Action fails with: "Cannot export Template. The Template name is already in use, please choose a unique name and try again." Expected results: Template is imported successfully to export domain. Additional info: 1. Works when choosing 'force override'. 2. Export VM did work fine.
could it be query permissions again?
The action was invoked as admin which is a superuser just to be clear.
Moving from 4.0 alpha to 4.0 beta since 4.0 alpha has been already released and bug is not ON_QA.
I can not simulate this, I need some more info: When you press the "export" and the template is already on export domain, it should show you a warning that: "Template(s): t1 already exist on the target Export Domain. If you want to override them, please check the 'Force Override' check-box." Do you see this warning? Or the warning is not there and it just fails to export? Have you ever exported this template before it started to complain that it is already on export domain? (e.g. export, delete from export domain, export again)? Did you have some other templates on export domain?
What I described in description was exactly what happened. It is not the suggested warning that appeared but export just failed and as I mentioned, the error message was: "Cannot export Template. The Template name is already in use, please choose a unique name and try again" I also don't know what caused the original problem, but is seems now I cannot re produce it anymore (system was updated since opening this bug). Other than the snippet of engine.log I copied to description I did not get any useful information. Should we close the bug?
since the log snippet does not give any clue why this issue happened, I'm closing this as works for me. Please feel free to reopen if it happens again.
