I was stuck with this error even after "default"ing the copy ctor. Turned out, one of my class member (rapidjson's Document object) was disallowing copy. Changed it to a reference, initialized via a *(new rapidjson::Document()) in the default ctor's initializer list. Looks like all individual members should also be copy'able in addition to the defaulted copy ctor.
