This error is raised if the conflict table for an article listed in sysmergearticles (Transact-SQL) does not actually exist. The error can occur when you attempt to add a column to or drop a column from a table published for merge replication.

User Action

Execute DBCC CHECKDB (Transact-SQL) on the database with the missing conflict table to verify there are no data consistency issues.
