code.

uses event 15404 during authentication when an invalid principal is specified. Or,

impersonation of a Windows account fails because there’s no full trust relationship between

the SQL Server service account and the domain of the Windows account.

Check that the Windows principal exists and isn’t misspelled.

If this error results from a lack of a full trust relationship between the SQL Server 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 SQL Server service.

If SQL Server 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 SQL Server account.
