    What is the reason and fix for the below error?

    The Replication_User is used in Security Agent settings for LogReaderAgent for the Publication. How does the password get expire?

  • Thanks for posting your issue and hopefully someone will answer soon.

    This is an automated bump to increase visibility of your question.

  • The issue was with the Windows login Replication_user.

    The password policy was setup to expire the password of that user and so the password was expired which caused the issue.

    Once the password is reset - no error.
