As long as the sacrifice fly has been a part of the MLB rules the batter has not been charged with a time at bat. However, the rule has been discontinued and continued several times. MLB started the sacrifice fly rule in the 1908 season. It was discontinued in the 1931 season only to become a rule again in 1939. It was discontinued again in 1940 and restarted in 1954.

So there was no sacrifice fly rule in MLB prior to 1908, between 1931-1938, and between 1940-1953.

If a batter reaches base on an error is it an official at bat?

Yes. The only time it is not an official "At Bat", is if a batter reaches base on a base on balls, hit by pitch or catcher interference. A batter is also not charged with an "At Bat" if he hits a sacrifice fly (a fly ball out that results in a runner tagging up and scoring), or a sacrifice bunt that advances a runner or runners. He is also not charged with an "At Bat" if the batter reaches base as a result of an error on a sacrifice fly or sacrifice bunt.

Is it considered an at bat if asked to sacrifice with runners on first and second with none out and the batter ends up safe at first because of a fielding error?

If the official scorer deems that the sacrifice was successful, he will credit the batter with a sacrifice. So the hitter will not be credited with an at-bat.
