This error typically arises during data modeling, data replication, or when trying to access certain data sources in the MDG environment.
  Causes:
  
  Incorrect Table Name: The table name provided in the configuration or data model is misspelled or does not match any existing table in the database.
  Table Not Created: The required database table has not been created, possibly due to an incomplete installation or configuration of the MDG component.
