This typically occurs in the context of the SAP Enterprise Search or the SAP HANA database, where connections to various data sources are managed.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the following scenarios:
  
  Duplicate Connection: A connection with the same GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) is already registered in the system.
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues in the configuration settings that lead to the system attempting to create a duplicate connection.

  Solution:
