Thanks again for your follow up.
I just checked the admincp administration setting for that user and also for the usergroup (administrators) and everything is set to yes.
Specifically the Can Administer Users is already YES.
I actually did set it to No and tested the form and I got the same error message. I set it back to YES again.

Anywhere else that you could think of?
