Not able to create site collection in sharepoint 2013

Question

I have created New Web application using PowerShell with Windows Authentication mode using spadmin account. Application successfully created. but when I try to do create Site collection for the same Web application, I get error saying:

Sorry, this site hasn't been shared with you.

spadmin account is in farm administrator group, Managed account, Administrator on computer, site collection administrator.

What can be the problem here?

Answer 1

You have created a managed path, now you actually need to create a site collection under this managed path. So you should name the site collection url something like "http://sharepoint2010/teams/testsite.

Follwoing should be the PS command:

New-SPSite -URL "http://sharepoint2010/teams/testsite" -ownerAlias "sp\svc_spadmin" -Template "STS#0"

Moreover, the correct way of creating the managed path is

New-SPManagedPath –RelativeURL "Teams" -WebApplication "http://sharepoint2010/"

The above script will create wild card inclusion, If you want explicit inclusion just add -Explicit

Answer 2

Are opening your site in mozilla? If so please delete cookies and try to open in Internet Explorer. I have faced the same issue, and it is opening in Internet Explorer.

Answer 3

Which site templte are you using? :

1. Custom Site Template : maybe this site template tries to add something to Taxonomy service or User Profile and the account you use does not have permission to this service
2. Is it publishing ? : Publishing sites uses managed navigation, and same problem as 1, if the account does nto have proper permissions, you will get this error.

Answer 4

Maybe it's this user policy thing: see this technet blog

Solution: If you set the Super User & Reader Accounts to a domain account for the Web Application(s) using PowerShell, make sure they have been added to the Web Application(s) via Central Admin with the appropriate rights.

More Information: By default, the Portal Super User account is the site’s System Account, and the Portal Super Reader account is NT Authority\Local Service.

Answer 5

Try browsing to the site's setting page (http://server/site/_layouts/settings.aspx), or the All Site Content page (http://server/site/_layouts/viewlsts.aspx).

This will tell you if the problem is with the home page, or with the site as a whole. For example if you can browse to Settings or All Site Content, then there is a problem with the home page.

You can then edit the page in Web Parts Maintenance mode (https://demantprasad.wordpress.com/category/how-to-go-to-the-sharepoint-page-webpart-maintenance-mode/ has some info on how to get to it), and remove any Web Parts that might be problematic.
