I think it has two possibilities:
1. The pdf file is open on other program. --> Close the file and try again.
2. There is already the file with the same name. --> Check the folder. If there is one, update Zotero and try again.
It may help you, I hope.
3. The file already has the desired name with the exception of capitalisation differences. At least in older versions of Z (not sure whether this is still the case) this would lead to a silent fail on the rename operation.
