It is not suppose to ask,
unless you use
-i option

anyway if it is asking i think you can always use
-f option (force)

i think you executing a script of cp instead of the real cp command.

some installers make a script where cp always use cp -i option, this
will it will come in interactive mode.

regards,

Guillermo.
