    It still unwraps, but it will give a mirrored UV-unwrap.

    In Object Mode press CTRL+A > Apply Scale. Then you can unwrap without any warning message.

    yes the message is not there but it doesn't unwrap it shows that it has been unwrapped  but on the uv editor there is no sign of it being unwrapped. what is this error?

    In your screenshot you have the Image Editor open that won't show the UV's.  Try the UV Editor. (You can simply switch to the UV Editing Workspace.)

    Again: that is the Image Editor. You need the UV Editor.
