This sentence:
"The source file is overwritten by the destination."
...implies something is about to happen, but from your explanation I
understand that this error is shown when something was *prevented* to
happen. So, I'd suggest changing it to something like this:
"Source file cannot be overwritten by the destination file."
Does that make any sense?
