    Hi Michael,

    Thanks for the info. Do you know why this issue occurs in the first place?

    Hey Phil,

    Depending on what action you executed will determine the cause. Usually this error appears if a service was interrupted during provisioning. As you know, SP is not very good at handling interruptions :)

    P.S. Apologises in not replying sooner
