• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DDIC_ADT_DDLS205 - Activation of secondary objects for DDL Source &1 ?

  The SAP error message DDIC_ADT_DDLS205 typically occurs during the activation of secondary objects for a Data Definition Language (DDL) source in the ABAP Development Tools (ADT). This error can arise due to various reasons, often related to inconsistencies or issues in the data dictionary objects.
  Cause:
  
  
  Inconsistent Data Dictionary Objects: The primary cause of this error is often related to inconsistencies in the data dictionary objects that are being activated. This can happen if there are dependencies that are not met or if there are issues with the underlying database objects.
  
  
  Missing Dependencies: If the DDL source references other objects (like tables, views, or types) that are not activated or do not exist, it can lead to this error.
  
  
  Transport Issues: If the objects were transported from another system and there were issues during the transport process, it could lead to inconsistencies.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to activate certain objects, leading to this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Dependencies: Review the DDL source and check for any dependencies that may not be activated. Ensure that all referenced objects are active and correctly defined.
  
  
  Activate Objects Manually: Try to activate the primary object manually first, and then attempt to activate the secondary objects. This can sometimes resolve the issue.
  
  
  Check for Transport Issues: If the objects were recently transported, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings that might indicate what went wrong.
  
  
  Review Authorization: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to activate the objects. You may need to consult with your security team if there are any authorization issues.
  
  
  Use Transaction SE11/SE14: You can use transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE14 (Database Utility) to check the status of the objects and see if there are any inconsistencies that need to be resolved.
  
  
  Check for Syntax Errors: Sometimes, syntax errors in the DDL source can prevent activation. Review the code for any mistakes.
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: SE11 (Data Dictionary), SE14 (Database Utility), SE80 (Object Navigator).
