This error indicates that the system is trying to access a database cursor that has not been properly opened, which can lead to issues when attempting to read or manipulate data.
  Causes:
  
  Database Connection Issues: The database connection may not be established correctly, leading to the cursor not being opened.
  Program Logic Errors: There may be a bug in the ABAP code where the cursor is expected to be opened but is not due to conditional logic or error handling.

  Database Locking: If another process is locking the database table, it may prevent the cursor from being opened.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Database Connection: Ensure that the database connection is active and functioning correctly. You can do this by checking the database logs or using transaction codes like DB02 to monitor database performance.
  Review ABAP Code: If you have access to the ABAP code, review the logic where the cursor is being opened. Ensure that the cursor is opened before any operations are performed on it.
