This error typically arises in the context of Web Dynpro for ABAP development when you are trying to delete a controller that is still referenced or has dependencies in the enhancement set.
  Cause:
  
  Dependencies: The controller you are trying to delete may still be referenced by other objects or components within the enhancement set.

  Unlock Enhancement Set:
  
  Ensure that the enhancement set is not locked. You can check this in transaction SE03 (Transport Organizer Tools) or SE09 (Transport Organizer).
  If it is locked, you may need to unlock it or wait until the lock is released.
  
  
  
  Transport Request Management:
  
  If the enhancement set is part of a transport request, ensure that the request is released or that you are working in a development environment where changes can be made.
  You may need to create a new transport request for your changes.
  
  
  
  Recheck Deletion Process:
  
  After resolving any dependencies and ensuring the enhancement set is not locked, try to delete the controller again using the appropriate transaction (e.g., SE80).
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
