This error typically arises when the system is unable to find the necessary SQL view that is required for executing a search query against a specific connector.
  Causes:
  
  Missing SQL View: The SQL view that corresponds to the connector is not created or is missing in the system.
  Incorrect Connector Configuration: The connector may not be properly configured, leading to the absence of the required SQL view.
  Transport Issues: If the system has recently undergone a transport, the SQL view may not have been transported correctly.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the SQL view.
  System Upgrade or Changes: Changes in the system, such as upgrades or modifications, may have affected the availability of the SQL view.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check SQL View Creation:
  
  Verify if the SQL view for the specified connector exists in the system. You can do this by checking the relevant database tables or using transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) to look for the SQL view.
  
  
  
  Recreate the SQL View:
