Specifically, it states that the UI5 component must not start with the prefix SAPUI5.Component. This is a common error that can occur during the development or deployment of SAP Fiori applications.

  The error is caused by the naming convention of the UI5 component. In SAPUI5, components are typically defined with a specific naming structure, and using the prefix SAPUI5.Component is not allowed.

  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should:
  
  
  Rename the Component: Change the name of your UI5 component to ensure it does not start with the prefix SAPUI5.Component. For example, if your component is named SAPUI5.Component.MyApp, rename it to something like MyApp.Component or MyCompany.MyApp.
  
  
  Update the Component Configuration: After renaming the component, make sure to update any references to the component in your application, including:
  
  The manifest.json file.
  Any controller or view files that reference the component.
  Any routing configurations that may be affected by the name change.
  
  
  
  Clear Cache: After making the changes, clear the browser cache and refresh the application to ensure that the changes take effect.
  
  
  Test the Application: Run the application to verify that the error has been resolved and that the application functions as expected.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAPUI5 Documentation: Refer to the official SAPUI5 documentation for guidelines on naming conventions and best practices for developing UI5 applications.
  Fiori Launchpad Configuration: If you are deploying the application to the Fiori Launchpad, ensure that the launchpad configuration is updated to reflect the new component name.
  Version Compatibility: Ensure that you are using a compatible version of SAPUI5 for your application, as naming conventions and other requirements may vary between versions.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and successfully deploy your UI5 component.
