• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /AIF/API_CUST058 - Too many namespaces found ?

  The SAP error message /AIF/API_CUST058 Too many namespaces found typically occurs in the context of the SAP Application Interface Framework (AIF). This error indicates that the system has detected an excessive number of namespaces in a particular context, which can lead to performance issues or conflicts in processing.

  Excessive Namespaces: The error is triggered when the number of namespaces defined in the AIF configuration exceeds the allowed limit. This can happen if multiple interfaces or configurations are set up without proper management of namespaces.

  Review Namespace Configuration: Check the AIF configuration for the specific interface or scenario that is causing the error. Ensure that the number of namespaces is within the acceptable limits.
  Consolidate Namespaces: If possible, consolidate or simplify the namespaces being used. This may involve merging similar interfaces or reducing the number of distinct namespaces.
  Adjust AIF Settings: Depending on your version of SAP and the specific AIF settings, you may need to adjust parameters related to namespace handling. Consult the SAP documentation for guidance on these settings.
  Check for Redundant Interfaces: Look for any redundant or unnecessary interfaces that may be contributing to the namespace count and remove or deactivate them if they are not needed.
