Sharepoint 2019 farm admin cannot "view all site collections"

Daniel M 126

Hi,

I have somehow managed to limit my permissions as a farm admin.
I cannot "view all site collections", https://xxxxx:yyyy/_admin/SiteCollections.aspx?ReturnSelectionPage=/applications.aspx, in central admin.
I get "Sorry, this site hasn't been shared with you.".

My Account is a member of the farm administrators group as well as the service account for "Farm Account".
What have I missed?

Hi @Daniel M ,

This issue may be caused by your farm admin account is not a local administrator. Have a try to run Central Administration as administrator or run IE as administrator and then access Central Administration.

The Farm Admin account is a local admin on the server, through an AD group.
Starting central as administrator didn't work.

Yesterday I had issues in SQL server logs where the computer account didn't have a login. I added that and tried to "view all site collections" but I still got "sorry, this site hasn't....."
That's when I started the thread.
Now I can "view all site collections" but I am not sure what solved, perhaps it took some time for the SQL login to kick in......?
BUT I cannot browse site collections from other web apps. For example, if I go to "change site collection administrator" -> Select site collection -> click to try and browse, the little pop-up shows "sorry, this site hasn't been shared with you".

BTW. This new forum is not very user friendly when it comes to sharepoint ULS logs....

Run SharePoint Configuration Wizard and reboot the server, would this help you fix it?

Hi!

I had the same issue when I restored a content DB that I received from an external client and the site collection administrators of restored content DB where unavailable since the content DB originally was hosted in a different Active Directory domain.

First I tried to configure Site Collection Administators in Central Admin but I got "Sorry, this site hasn't been shared with you."

Then I used Set-SpSite command to set Site Collection Administators from PowerShell and then it solved the problem.
