thanks for reporting @Popescu-PfeifferMarc! this happens on the cloud too when an invitation is sent to the same email address that's already on the pending invitation list. if you remove the person from the list of pending invitations first, you can invite them again without any problems. rather than showing a random error we should have a user friendly message instead saying something like:

You're trying to invite an email address that already has a pending invitation. Please remove the pending invitation before trying again

[Popescu-PfeifferMarc]

The issue was resolved by the invited user accepting the invite. I just wanted to suggest adding a more descriptive error message to help future users running into the same problem
