  • What causes this issue?

    There is an error in the table settings for the SAP Knowledge Provider.
    During maintenance of the repositories for document contents, a content
    repository was created for storage in database table &V1&. However, this
    table does not exist in the current system or is not active. It is
    possible that transport requests were not carried out in the correct
    sequence and the missing or inactive table will be imported in a
    subsequent transport request.

    System Response

    In this status, the system cannot use write access or read-only access
    for documents to be stored in database table &V1&. A short dump will
    occur if users attempt to access the documents.

    How to fix this error?

    The settings must be returned to a consistent status. You should run
    program RSIRGENT after the subsequent transport requests. If the missing
    table is imported in a subsequent transport request, this program will
    allow access to the documents involved.
    See SAP Note 2771607.

    Procedure for System Administrators

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
