Big-IP virtual edition not loading configuration

Hello.

i have a virtual edition of Big-Ip that is not loading the configuration. am getting the following message on the CLI 

load_config_files[8736]: "/usr/bin/tmsh -n -g -a load sys config partitions all base " - failed. -- Unexpected Error: No user configuration is found. Loading process is aborted.

2023 Feb 6 03:42:41 BIG-IP-01.lab.local load_config_files[8736]: "/usr/bin/tmsh -n -g -a load sys config partitions all base " - failed. -- Unexpected Error: No user configuration is found. Loading process is aborted.

I  tried to load the config manually but its giving the same error:

[admin@BIG-IP-01:INOPERATIVE:Standalone] ~ # tmsh load sys config

How can i resolve this without wiping the configuration?
