UE5: "Landscape Physical Material Needs to be Rebuilt"

Hello,
I am really desperate at this point.
I transferred my landscape from a 4.27 project to a 5.1 project.
Now, I keep getting this error that is described here.

PhysicalMaterialError

Solutions I have already tried:

  • Build Physical Material only
    
  • Convert to world partition and selected everything + Build All Landscapes
    
  • Added a new physics material (previously not set)
    
  • Resize to the same size
    
  • Set all textures in the Landscape material to shared:wrap
    
  • Completely removed the Landscape material (still getting the error)
    

However, the error only appears in “Standalone Game” mode.
Resizing the map to a larger size changed the error from 1024 to 256, but it didn’t go away completely.

Does anyone have any ideas or experienced the same problem?
Starting a new Landscape from scratch is not an option.

UPDATE:
I just created a complete new blank project in UE5.1.
Then i created a new blank level and inside a new landscape.

The error also occurs.
How is this possible?
Can someone reproduce it?

Greetings
