What causes this issue?

During runtime of the conversion program<(>,<)> data must be transferred
to the content framework.
Within the content framework, a status for each content restructuring ID
is saved which controls the execution sequence for the conversion
program and for the content activation.
The following basic processing steps are then executed:
To enable further processing, the conversion program requests an
instance using the content restructuring ID (&V1&) within the framework.
The conversion program requests the status <LS>XPRA started</> in the
content framework for all clients. This status prevents the content from
being activated.
The conversion program transfers the table keys of each converted
configuration table to the content framework.
After successfully converting an individual client in the applications
involved, the <LS>XPRA completed</> status is transferred to the content
framework for this client. This allows the start of content activation
after completing the technical upgrade.
In this case, a connection to the content framework could <ZH>not</> be
established.
This error is usually caused when a status already exists within the
content framework under the content restructuring ID (&V1&) which
prohibits an instance being requested again in the content framework.
The status can be displayed in transaction <AB>/SMB/XP_CR_ST</> in the
row of the content restructuring ID (&V1&). Before you execute the
conversion program, the status must be one of the following:
<LS>Initial</>
<LS>XPRA started</>
After successfully completing the conversion program, the status must be
<LS>XPRA completed</>. This is the prerequisite for starting the
activation of the content.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
