This error can occur for various reasons, including configuration issues, missing objects, or problems with the underlying data model.
  Causes of the Error

  Authorization Issues: The user executing the generation may not have the necessary authorizations to create or modify the DataSource.
  Technical Settings: Incorrect technical settings in the DataSource configuration can lead to generation failures.
  Transport Issues: If the DataSource is being transported from one system to another, there may be inconsistencies or missing dependencies.
  DataSource Already Exists: If a DataSource with the same name already exists but is not properly configured, it can cause conflicts.

  Technical Settings: Review the technical settings of the DataSource. Ensure that the extraction method and other parameters are correctly configured.
  Delete and Recreate: If the DataSource already exists and is causing issues, consider deleting it and recreating it from scratch.
  Check Transport Requests: If the DataSource is part of a transport request, ensure that all dependencies are included and that the transport has been successfully imported into the target system.
