This typically occurs in the context of Web Dynpro development when trying to save changes to an application that is not in an active state.
  Cause:
  
  Inactive Version: The user is trying to save changes to a Web Dynpro application that has an inactive version. This means that the application is not currently active or has not been properly activated after changes were made.
  User Permissions: The user may not have the necessary permissions to activate the application or to save changes to it.
  Development Environment Issues: There may be issues with the development environment or transport requests that are preventing the activation of the application.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Activate the Version:
