  Cause:
  
  Non-Existent Table/View: The specified table or view (&2) does not exist in the database. This could be due to a typo in the name or because the table/view has been deleted or renamed.
  Authorization Issues: The user executing the transaction may not have the necessary authorizations to access the specified table or view.
