It's because your original cut was done after an unfold. When you mirror you are trying to cut out of the folded part and it can't compute the solution. 

 

Try unfolding it and then doing a the mirror.

A much better way would be to just draw a sketch on this blue face and do a normal extrude cut from the 3D model tab, then you don't need the unfold at all.
