This error can occur in the context of developing or using applications based on the RAP framework, particularly when dealing with data models and their associated entities.
  Cause
  The error can be caused by several factors, including:
  
  
  Incorrect Configuration: The composition node may not be correctly defined in the RAP model. This could be due to a typo in the node name or an incorrect reference in the definition.
  
  
  Missing Annotations: The necessary annotations that define the relationship between the main entity and the composition node may be missing or incorrectly specified.
  
  
  Data Model Changes: If there have been recent changes to the data model, such as renaming or removing the composition node, the application may still be trying to access the old configuration.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the composition node, leading to the error.
  
  
  Transport Issues: If the application has been transported from one system to another, there may be inconsistencies in the data model or missing objects.
  
  
  Solution

  Check the Definition: Verify the definition of the composition node in your RAP model. Ensure that the name is correct and that it is properly defined in the relevant CDS (Core Data Services) views.
  
  
  Review Annotations: Ensure that all necessary annotations are present and correctly specified. This includes checking the relationships between entities and ensuring that the composition node is properly linked to the main entity.
  
  
  Inspect Recent Changes: If there have been recent changes to the data model, review those changes to ensure that they have been correctly implemented and that all references are up to date.
  
  
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the composition node. You may need to check the roles and permissions assigned to the user.
  
  
  Transport Consistency: If the application has been transported, check for any inconsistencies or missing objects in the target system. You may need to re-transport certain objects or perform a consistency check.
  
  
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider using debugging tools to trace the execution and identify where the error is occurring. This can provide more insight into the root cause.
