Azure AD Connect "Unable to validate credentials" - azure

I am working on a already functioning Azure Ad Connect VM, it syncs and the proxy connection responds with the code 200.
BUT whenever i want to sign in, in the AAD connect in my VM, with my admin Account, i get this error.
"Unable to validade credentials due to an expected error. Restart Azure AD Connect with th/ InteractiveAuth Option to further diagnose this issue."
Any idea what must cause this? I have tried every forum idea i could find with no answer. OH and upgrading is also no idea since to upgrade i need to SIGN IN also...which i can´t.
Thanks!

Steps to resolve the issue:
Navigate to directory on the server where AD Connect is
installed and copy the path (“C:\Program Files\Microsoft Azure Active Directory
Connect”).
Open command prompt and change directory to the above copied path.
Type and run /AzureADConnect.exe /InteractiveAuth in the prompt.
After you have performed the above steps, login using the same account and upgrade the Azure AD Domain Controller.

Run below command in cmd (Command Prompt) and login to account.
It will open AAD Client Connect login dialog with GUI
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Azure Active Directory Connect\AzureADConnect.exe" /interactiveauth

AZURE WEB APP: Problem: fatal: Authentication failed for 'webapp url'

Good day I am new on web developing and want to ask on how to fix this error in the terminal of Azure webapp service, git push azure main this is the command I keep inserting inside the terminal but the response is always this Password for <webapp url> and I don't know what password I should enter
therefore I browse the internet and still stuck on this, the fixes I tried is removing some credentials on windows credential, changing the HTTPS to SSHS, configuring global password, and lastly installing the GCM from github thank you very much
In Azure Portal, first we need to create Azure App service with the required run time stack.
You will get this option, if we deploy our App using Local Git.
We need to provide Credentials while pushing the code from local GitHub.
You will get the Credentials from Azure Portal => App Service.
Navigate to Azure Portal => Your App Service (which you have created in first step) => Deployment Center => Local Git/ FTPS credentials.
We can use the existing Application scope Username and Password or can create new User scope and use them.

Remote WMI query failing with 'A security package specific error occurred' when using Azure Active Directory user

I'm attempting to query a remote machine with the PowerShell cmdlet: Get-WmiObject and using credentials for a user in Azure AD that has the Azure AD joined device local administrator role and the IAM role assignment of Virtual Machine Administrator Login on the remote machine.
When I run the following command:
Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Process -Namespace "root/cimv2" -ComputerName <remote_computer_local_ip> -Impersonation Impersonate -Credential AzureAD\<username>
I receive the following error message:
Get-WmiObject : A security package specific error occurred. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070721)
Is the ability to run remote WMI queries supported when using an Azure AD user?
Remote machine specs:
Windows Server 2019 Datacenter
10.0.17763 Build 17763
Other troubleshooting notes:
I'm able to sign to the remote machine with the same user and have followed the steps in the https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/devices/howto-vm-sign-in-azure-ad-windows document
When running the same command on the remote machine locally it properly returns the Win32_Process data
If I use the local administrator credentials on the remote command it also works which suggests that remote WMI is working
Both computers are Azure AD joined and show AzureAdJoined : YES from the dsregcmd /status command
I've attempted to use the Computer Name, Local IP, and FQDN and they all yield the same result
After talking with Microsoft support about this issue, it seems that the error stems from the different authentication methods between a local user account and an Azure AD account.
It seems it is not supported as they are using different authentication protocols.
Azure AD user uses OAuth and the security error is due to Kerberos.
Here is the reference article for more details: Authentication protocols in Azure Active Directory B2C | Microsoft Docs
They have also mentioned that there is no current information on whether or not this will be supported in the future and have recommend checking Azure updates for future product updates.
It could happen for number of reasons. Please check if any of these in your case is the one.
When You try to setup a WMI session when:
a. There are more than one computer accounts with the same name in play and one of those stale computer accounts resides in the same domain as your user account
b. Or when servers operating reside in the same AD DS forest but in different domains.
When server is not able to find the user object due to password credentials that may be stored as cache from previous login.
Incorrect time on machines/server that doesn’t match.
If firewalls are enabled for server which may restrict the access.
possible work arounds
Try azuread\user#mydomain.com or user#mydomain.com or domainame\username format to login or Try taking out the domain and adding it back again.
The local PC and remote PC must be in the same Azure AD tenant.
Run AAD delta Sync to make sure everything is Synced and make sure of internet connectivity and network.
Try if you can turn off firewall.

Getting error in Cloudshell: Connect-AzAccount: InteractiveBrowserCredential authentication failed

I have an existing paid Azure subscription. SOmehow, I failed to pay my bills and subscription got deactivated and then I paid and activated again
But after this incident, I am getting one strange error in Cloudshell as follows:
a) From my Win 10 machine, I opened Chrome/ Edge browser
b) Logged in to Azure Portal
c) Opened Cloud shell and Opened PWSH mode
d) Types in Connect-AZAccount
Getting following warning and then an error:
--> WARNING: Unable to acquire token for tenant 'organizations'
--> Connect-AzAccount: InteractiveBrowserCredential authentication failed: Unable to open a web page using xdg-open. See inner exception for details. Possible causes for this error are: xdg-open is not installed or it cannot find a way to open an url - make sure you can open a web page by invoking from a terminal: xdg-open https://www.bing.com
This never happened earlier and I always used before normally. Also I tried with some other Window systems. Same error. But when I tried to use installed Powershell it works as charm. Please advise what went wrong
If you use Cloud Shell, then you don't need to use this command to connect to Azure.Your Azure Cloud Shell session is already authenticated for the environment, subscription, and tenant that launched the Cloud Shell session.
Please see the documentation:
Sign in interactively with the Connect-AzAccount cmdlet. Skip this
step if you use Cloud Shell. Your Azure Cloud Shell session is already
authenticated for the environment, subscription, and tenant that
launched the Cloud Shell session.

azure linux vm recovery - unable to remote login

forgot user name password for a linux (ubuntu) vm. tried to "Reset Remote Access" from the portal, but it is not helping - more than 30 minutes - it still shown in progress. Tried to do it via azure command line. Created a new user with password, but unable to login. SSH says access denied. Should I do any additional steps?
After creating new user you should also reset your SSH connection. You could refer to Reset Access and Manage Users and Check Disks with the Azure VMAccess Extension for Linux for detailed steps.

Unable to remove Azure Active-Directory due to existing Application

How to remove an orphaned Application in an Azure Directory?
I have a second (non-Default) directory that I was using to test the AD Connect app, and having finished with it, want to delete.
I have been able to remove the users both with the Management Portal and remove-msoluser, but am unable to delete the directory as it has one Application registered - "Office 365 Management APIs"
In the management console, this Application looks a little weird - there are no options to do anything on its dashboard and just checking, this Application is also installed in my Default Directory and looks the same - maybe it cannot be removed?
Have tried removing the App using the Remove-msolservice cmdlet, and tried the whole-hog approach as per Method 5 in https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/kb/2967860/en-us - seems to run through ok, but the Application is still listed, and when deleting the Directory I still get the error -
Directory has one or more applications that were added by a user or administrator
I had the same problem. When performed the steps below, I could delete the Azure Active Directory tenant:
Log in to Azure and create a new user with Global Admin permissions in the AAD you're trying to delete.
Open the Azure Active Directory Module for Windows PowerShell and execute the following:
Connect-MsolService (Log in with #onmicrosoft global admin account you created)
Get-MsolServicePrincipal | Remove-MsolServicePrincipal (This will generate errors but it's ok)
Log in to https://manage.windowsazure.com as the service admin
Delete already created #onmicrosoft.com Global Admin user
Delete the AAD now

or here:
https://www.opsgility.com/blog/deleting-azure-ad-applications
You must run the following cmdlets after running the remove cmdlets:
Get-MsolServicePrincipal | Set-MsolServicePrincipal -AccountEnabled $False
then delete the temporary global admin account (if any) and you should be able to delete the directory.

This article helps me to delete Azure AD I created with old Windows Azure Portal (manage.windowsazure.com):
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/ericgolpe/2015/04/30/walkthrough-of-deleting-an-azure-ad-tenant/
In a nutshell:
Create a new user under the AD you intend to delete.
User must have Global Admin role.
You will get temporary password for this user. Once login to Azure Portal with this user, you will need to create a permanent password.
Use this credential, you will remove Azure AD's applications using Azure AD PowerShell
Then, go back to Azure AD you intend to delete (using your credential, not the newly created user), delete the user you just created.
Only after doing all these will you be able to delete the Azure AD.
