• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GOX_OBJECTS_GENERATE115 - Inconsistent parameters - DataSource cannot be deleted ?

  The SAP error message GOX_OBJECTS_GENERATE115 indicates that there are inconsistent parameters related to a DataSource, which prevents it from being deleted. This error typically arises in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when trying to manage DataSources.
  Cause:
  
  Inconsistent Metadata: The DataSource may have inconsistent metadata or parameters that are not aligned with the system's expectations.
  Active Objects: There may be active objects (like InfoProviders, queries, or transformations) that depend on the DataSource, preventing its deletion.
  Transport Issues: If the DataSource was transported from another system, there might be inconsistencies in the transport that need to be resolved.
  DataSource Usage: The DataSource might be in use by other processes or objects, such as data flows or data models.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Dependencies: Use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to check if there are any dependent objects that are using the DataSource. If there are, you will need to delete or deactivate those objects first.
  Consistency Check: Perform a consistency check on the DataSource. You can do this by using transaction RSDS to check the DataSource and see if there are any inconsistencies that need to be resolved.
  Recreate the DataSource: If the DataSource is corrupted, consider recreating it. This involves creating a new DataSource with the same settings and then deleting the old one.
  Transport Request: If the DataSource was transported, check the transport request for any issues. You may need to re-import or adjust the transport.
  Check for Active Data: Ensure that there is no active data being processed or loaded from the DataSource. If there is, you may need to wait until the process is complete.
  System Logs: Check the system logs for any additional error messages or warnings that might provide more context about the issue.
