This error can occur for various reasons, including database connectivity issues, syntax errors in the SQL statement, or problems with the underlying database.
  Causes:
  
  Database Connectivity Issues: The connection to the database may be lost or not properly configured.
  SQL Syntax Errors: There may be a mistake in the SQL syntax, such as missing keywords, incorrect table names, or invalid data types.
  Database Constraints: Violations of database constraints (e.g., primary key, foreign key, unique constraints) can lead to this error.
