15404 (Database Engine error)

MSSQLSERVER_15404

[!INCLUDE SQL Server]

Details

Attribute Value
Product Name SQL Server
Event ID 15404
Event Source MSSQLSERVER
Component SQLEngine
Symbolic Name SEC_NTGRP_ERROR
Message Text Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user 'user', error code code.

Explanation

15404 is used in authentication when an invalid principal is specified. Or, impersonation of a Windows account fails because there is no full trust relationship between the [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] service account and the domain of the Windows account.

User Action

Check that the Windows principal exists and is not misspelled.

If this error is the result of a lack of a full trust relationship between the [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] service account and the domain of the Windows account, one of the following actions can resolve the error:

  • Use an account from the same domain as the Windows user for the [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] service.

  • If [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] is using a machine account such as Network Service or Local System, the machine must be trusted by the domain containing the Windows User.

  • Use a [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] account.
