Raspberry camera error: "mmal: No data received from sensor"

I used successfully my raspberry camera times ago. Now I tried again to acquire a image with the raspistill -o image.jpg command; the red led on the camera flashes, but I get this error:

mmal: No data received from sensor. 
Check all connections, including the Sunny one on the camera board

Of course the camera connections are fine. Is there any other way to check if the camera is still working?

Why is my camera is not working on Raspberry Pi?

Reboot - Try rebooting your Pi if you've changed the camera/cable whilst it's switched on (we'd always recommend turning your Raspberry Pi off before switching the camera cable or any other hardware). Operating System - Are you using the Raspberry Pi OS?

What is Raspivid?

raspivid is a command line application that allows you to capture video with the camera module, while the applicationraspistill allows you to capture images. -o or –output specifies the output filename and -t or –timeout specifies the amount of time that the preview will be displayed in milliseconds.

I was experiencing the same problem too, until I found a solution.

I removed the sunny connector(the yellow thingy below the camera in the board) and fixed it in the same place. The camera is working fine after trying this.
