This error indicates that there is a conflict with the Vocabulary ID and version combination in the system, meaning that there are duplicate entries that need to be resolved.
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Entries: The most common cause of this error is that there are multiple entries in the system with the same Vocabulary ID and version. This can happen if the same vocabulary is imported or created multiple times without proper versioning.
  Incorrect Configuration: Sometimes, the configuration settings for the OData service or the vocabulary might not be set correctly, leading to conflicts.
