  • What causes this issue?

    The COPY function allows you to integrate the subschema source code in
    main schemas. You have tried to integrate subschema SUB1, which is
    already integrated, and in turn integrates subschema SUB2. This would
    lead to an infinite integration of COPY functions (recursive COPY
    functions).
    Example:
    Schema MAIN: COPY SUB1
    Schema SUB1: COPY SUB2
    Schema SUB2: COPY SUB1

    How to fix this error?

    Check the COPY function in your (sub)schema (SUB2) and delete the
    impermissible recursive call.
