The problem is that you've already got a binary (image, pdf etc) located in your website with the same file name.

To help you explain the problem, there's also some great content online:

There's also a tridion power tool that can help you identify where your publication contains duplicate binaries:

  • I have power tools installed but I can't see all tolls on my ribbon, I can see only "Image uploaded", "Page publisher", "Count items", "Application data inspector" and "Power tools help"

  • The tool is shown when right clicking a publication item only - thanks

  • I could not see any file duplication in my package but adding a TBB that makes sure all files have unique name solved the issue.

    Forcing unique binary names usually masks the root cause of the problem and facilitates redundant data to be uploaded into the CMS. I have described the scenario in more detail here: tridion.stackexchange.com/a/9584/159
