Error: Resolve Synchronize job error 0x8000401A

Applies To

GroupID 8-Synchronize

Situations:

You have a Synchronize Jon that runs fine manually, however when triggered through schedule following error message appears:

Error:

Failed during startup: The server process could not be started because the configured identity is incorrect. Check the username and password. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8000401A).

Solution:

As stated in the error message, this error occurs due to insufficient privileges or incorrect service account information See this Blog.

To resolve this issue follow the steps below:

1. From the Windows Start menu, open Administrative Tools and Click Component Services OR Click Start >  Run, input dcomcnfg in the Open: box and click OK
2. Expand Component Services -> Computers -> My Computer -> COM+ Applications.
3. Right-click Imanami ServiceODBC and click Properties.

5. Once open, Click the identity tab and select This User:

Fill the details with service account which is operating the schedule. This should resolve the issue as the service will make sure that the schedule starts if the user is logged off. Additionally just make sure that the user is also part of Local Admin group for by-passing any rights assignment while performing the task.
