SharePoint 2010 Error – Some or all identity references could not be translated

As part of a Domain migration, moved all servers in the SharePoint Farm to a new

One of the SharePoint Application Servers had to be rebuilt and re-added to the Farm. When trying to add the server to the Farm, got the following error:

Error:

Some or all identity references could not be translated.

SharePoint2010Error

Solution:

This issue is part of the duplicate SPManagedAccount issue that is blogged here.

But the solution will not work. You wont be able to get into the Service Accounts to change the Farm account to another Service Account.

You will need to rebuild the Central Admin.

Make sure to disconnect all your App Servers and Web Front Ends first before you disconnect the Central Admin server from the Farm.

SharePoint 2010 Error – Item has already been added. Key in dictionary.

Currently migrating my SharePoint Farm from one domain to another domain due to unresolvable DNS issues.

While reconfiguring the User Profile Service, came across the below error:

Error:

Item has already been added. Key in dictionary: ‘local\svc_SP_Farm’.
Key being added: ‘local\svc_SP_Farm’.

Upon further investigation, identified in the Managed Service Accounts a duplicate of my svc_SP_Farm Service Account.

Removing the duplicate account via remove-spmanagedaccount -identify “Local\svc_SP_FARM” failed because the service account is running the FARM. Annoying.

What it looks like is that I updated the Farm Account password via Central Admin GUI, but also had another Central Admin session open on another server, causing the conflict.

Solution:

  1. Open SharePoint 2010 Management Shell from the Start Menu.
  2. Type the following command:
    $spmanagedaccount = get-spmanagedaccount -identity “Local\svc_SP_FARM”

  3. Then run the following command:
    remove-spmamanagedaccount $spmanagedaccount[0]

SharePoint 2010 – Access Denied

I was recently trying to re-provision a solution through Farm Solutions within Central Administration Service for Sharepoint.

Once I clicked deploy on the solution I got the below error:

Access denied. Only machine administrators are allow to create administration……

sharepoint#1

Weird. I doubled check that I had the correct permissions, which I did.

Solution:
————————–

Run Internet Explorer as Administrator by holding shift key and right clicking on the Internet Explorer icon and select Run as Administrator.

This will then run IE under the machine Administrator account.
