• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HTA_HDI_WSM513 - Destination '&1' for XSA controller has the wrong type ?

  The SAP error message HTA_HDI_WSM513 indicates that there is an issue with the destination configuration for the XSA (XS Advanced) controller in your SAP HANA environment. Specifically, it suggests that the destination you are trying to use is of the wrong type, which can lead to connectivity issues when trying to access services or resources.
  Cause
  The error can occur due to several reasons:
  
  Incorrect Destination Type: The destination you are trying to use may not be configured correctly. For example, it might be set up as an HTTP destination when it should be an XSODATA or other type.
  Misconfiguration: The destination might be pointing to an incorrect service or endpoint that does not match the expected type.
  Missing or Incorrect Credentials: If the destination requires authentication, incorrect credentials can lead to this error.
  Version Mismatch: There may be a version mismatch between the services you are trying to connect to and the expected types in the destination configuration.
  
  Solution
  To resolve the error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Destination Configuration:
  
  Go to the SAP HANA cockpit or the relevant administration tool where destinations are configured.
  Verify that the destination &1 (replace with the actual destination name) is set up correctly.
  Ensure that the destination type matches the service you are trying to access (e.g., HTTP, XSODATA, etc.).
  
  
  
  Update Destination Type:
  
  If the destination type is incorrect, update it to the correct type that matches the service you are trying to connect to.
  
  
  
  Verify Credentials:
  
  Check if the destination requires authentication and ensure that the credentials (username and password) are correct.
  
  
  
  Test the Destination:
  
  Use the "Test" feature in the destination configuration to ensure that it can connect successfully to the intended service.
  
  
  
  Check Logs:
  
  Review the logs for any additional error messages or warnings that might provide more context about the issue.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
