What does error 110 per AuthzInitializeContextFromSid signify? "While trying to retrieve the authorization groups, an error (110) occurred." - asp.net

My symptoms and System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement stack trace are exactly the same as While trying to retrieve the authorization groups, an error (5) occurred except that I get an error 110 which docs explain as ERROR_OPEN_FAILED: The system cannot open the device or file specified.
In my situation, this functionality was working one day and stopped working the next day within an ASP.NET v4 application. I am using an AD service account that I've created in order to establish a connection to AD. The service account has admin privileges to a specific OU further down in the directory.
I've narrowed the exception down to a call made to the AuthzInitializeContextFromSid native function inside the System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement.AuthZSet constructor. It is not clear to me why this fails and since user.GetGroups works for me (per the answer given in the other SO link), I'll put my research on hold for now.
Does anyone else have any thoughts on what might be occurring?

Error 5 usually means you are having an ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED win32 error. That can happen if you're accessing a downlevel API that can only be queried with administrative rights or if the object you are accessing has ACLs that deny access from the process token your program is running at.
In simple words: try running your app elevated. If it works, you had insufficient access rights when running without elevation.

Artifactory Users Management not loading

I'm trying to open the Artifactory Users Management page, following the Admin->Security->Users tab.
Then I'm getting the following error:
Any idea of what might be causing it? Also, which log I can check this? Couldn't find anything yet.
The server error generally indicates there is problem fetching the user details from Artifactory. This can happen due to any of the following reasons:
when you have a high volume of users and the request is timing out.
There is a chance that you might have created a username with a
special character which is not allowed (using the REST method or some
other method)
There is an issue with the backend database
And the best place to troubleshoot is to first check the request log a good valid entry looks like below:
20200715164402|104|REQUEST|165.225.104.49|admin|GET|/ui/users|HTTP/1.1|200|0
Next check the artifactory.log file for java stack or check catalina.out under tomcat/logs directory.

How do I get past this error in the Firebase console when adding a new app? "There was an unknown error while processing the request. Try again."

I'm getting this error after I try to add a new app and click 'Register App':
"There was an unknown error while processing the request. Try again."
I've looked at these and they have the same problem but didn't have solutions that worked:
Can't create Firebase project - There was an unknown error while processing the request. Try again
GCM - Getting Error message "There was an unknown error while processing the request. Try again." when creating new project
Firebase: There was an unknown error while processing the request. Try again.
I'm not using multiple Google accounts. I've tried signing out and in again, tried changing the package name, and the Firebase status page doesn't show any outages.
I had the same problem, After a long research fond that it was been OAuth 2.0 Client Id limit. In order to resolve, I have deleted all OAuth 2.0 Client IDs from Google cloud console, then try again. It works fine for me.
Steps to remove OAuth 2.0 Client IDs :
Open 'https://console.cloud.google.com/'
Select your project from the top navbar
Select APIs & Services from Left Side panel
Select Credentials in the left panel
Go to OAuth 2.0 Client IDs
Select all unused Entries (!Carefully)
Click on delete on the top bar
Done, go to firebase console try again
It may solve your problem!!
Have you tried changing your package name? I'd same issue,that was resolved by changing package name. As Firebase saves deleted package names as well.
You might reached number of OAuth 2.0 client IDs limits. There is a limit of around 30 client IDs that can be created within a single project.
Make sure you sign out all your google accounts and sign in with the account for your specific project. I'm normally signed in to 3 or 4 accounts and ran into this error issue. Did as I mentioned and it worked.
The operation has failed (Reason: [object ProgressEvent])
I am getting the above-mentioned error while creating a new project. This got resolved by logging out and logging in again

Execution group not starting Websphere message broker 8

We have Websphere Message Broker v8.0.0.3 on Redhat Linux env, and we encounterd the following runtime error message:
BIP2057
Execution Group <insert_1> could not be started: broker name <insert_2>; UUID <insert_3>; label <insert_4>; Pub-Sub server <insert_5> (1=Yes, 0=No).
The situation is that one of the execution groups stopped (without any trace/log about it) and the wmb could not auto start with the BIP2057 error.
the weird part occurs when another EG restarted (unlinked reason to the first problem, because of some applicative errors) and then the first EG "took its place", started successfully, and now the second EG could not start for the same reason.
We have checked for user permissions or the logs without any success in identifying the problem.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Run the following service IBM MQSeries if it's not running already:
C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\WebSphere MQ\bin\amqlsvc.exe
If it gives an
exception of Access Denied, your user must not be having rights to
log on.
Another possible resolution can be by restarting the
DataFlowEngine.exe process.
If none of the above scenarios fulfill the need, restart the system.

MSG.exe Error 5 getting session names

I am trying to send a message through the command line using msg.exe on Windows 7. I have successfully gotten everything to work except for the Session ID. I get the error Error 5 getting session names. After searching online I found that I can edit the registry to remove this error using regedit.exe. However, on the domain I am on, I do not have permissions to edit the registry. I can only view it.
I know the individual session ID's of the users that I am trying to send a message to.
Super user hasn't really been any help... How do I prevent the error from occurring without editing the registry?
You need to log into the user, that the computer you are trying to send to is on.You will need to do is go to credential manager, and add the credentials. That error message will go away.

What Tool or Script Can I Use to Find Which Directory Is Invalid When Receiving a "The directory name is invalid" error in IIS 7?

The Goal
I would like only a certain group of users (who are in an Active Directory group composed of users from two domains) to be able to execute a web script, in http://www.site.org/protected, after being challenged for authentication.
The Setup
Windows 2008, IIS 7. User Account Access has been disabled, as it is a pain and sometimes causes perfectly reasonable things to fail. The server is part of a domain I will called LITTLEDOMAIN. We have a trust with BIGDOMAIN.
I have a group, called "LITTLEDOMAIN\can-use-this." In that group are the members LITTLEDOMAIN\me and BIGDOMAIN\me. I did the bit in Active Directory where the server now allows that group to authenticate against another domain (BIGDOMAIN).
The application pool for www.site.org runs as "NetworkService."
The dirctory has the user SYSTEM, the user NETWORK SERVICE, the group Enterprise Admins, and the group LITTLEDOMAIN\can-use-this with at least Read and Execute permissions.
In IIS 7, I have disabled all forms of authentication for that directory but Windows Authentication. As to Authorization Rules, All Users are Allowed.
The Error
When I use, say, FireFox, visit the URL http://www.site.org/protected, and am presented with a challenge, I can enter the username LITTLEDOMAIN\me and my password, then see the minimal HTML generated by my very simple Python script, which is basically a "Hello, World" with a timestamp thrown in so I can make sure caching of the page does not occur. If I use BIGDOMAIN\me, I receive an HTTP 500 error.
Diagnostics Performed
The passwords for LITTLEDOMAIN\me and BIGDOMAIN\me are the same; this has been checked.
I look in the HTTP logs and see the "500 0 267" for "sc-status sc-substatus sc-win32-status" in the HTTP logs. A "net helpmsg 267" from the command line gives me "The directory name is invalid."
I added Failed Request Tracing Rules and see the same unhelpful message in the XML: "The directory name is invalid. (0x8007010b)"
I have turned on file object auditing in the policy for that server, then set the auditing for the directory and the files within it to have all failures for "Everyone," but nothing shows up in the Security section of Event Viewer. I was able to cause other failures, so I know that failure auditing is working. This suggests that the system is not even getting to the point where the file is being accessed.
I gave, temporarily, the group LITTLEDOMAIN\can-use-this full control over the C:\TEMP directory, on the off chance this was in use. I recycled the application pool. The same error occurs. I tried this in C:\Windows\Temp as well, to no avail.
The Question
How can I find out "well, WHICH directory name is invalid?" It's pretty obvious that something, somewhere along the line, wants permissions for BIGDOMAIN, but I cannot figure out where.
The missing component, in addition to an audit policy and Failed Request Tracing, is Process Monitor. Not Process Explorer, but Process Monitor.
Run Process Monitor for three or so seconds, just long enough to get your request in, and have it fail. Use Failed Request Tracing to get the process ID that failed. Use Process Monitor's filter to show only events where the process ID appears -- you can then see where it fails.
Then set auditing on that directory to see what account is being used.
It appears that IIS 7 is returning to the root of the webserver when looking at a protected subdirectory. Odd.
