The request for security token could not be satisfied because authentication failed.

Hi,

Were using a WIndows service which establishes a WCF connection to CRM. It worked well in 2015, but i cant get it to work in 2016 (performed an in-place upgrade). Nothing else was changed other than the upgrade. Something tells me that its the AppPool credentials/identity of the WCF site that may need to be adjusted. I tried an Admin AD user (which has permissions to CRM), and NetworkService. No luck. The AppPool for the CRM site itself (CRMAppPool) is running as NetworkService (Classic).

It throws the following error:

System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.ServiceModel.Security.SecurityNegotiationException: The caller was not authenticated by the service. ---> System.ServiceModel.FaultException: The request for security token could not be satisfied because authentication failed.

 

Below is a copy of the web.config:

    Update:

    Strangely, if i run the CRM site AppPool as a domain user (Active Directory user with Administrative permissions to CRM), im seemingly able to start the service without any errors. IIRC, the CRMAppPool should not run as a user but as NetworkService. Can someone explain why this is happening and the correct steps to resolve?
