Sometimes,Unfortunatly we forgot the pass phrase given, there is no way to get the old pass phrase but we can generate the new pass phrase by using the PowerShell. Follow the below to get the new one.

Make sure that the account you are logged in as:

2.     Local admin on server

Run the following commands to get the new one.

How to set the custom error attribute in SharePoint server 2013

How to set the custom error attribute in SharePoint server 2013               



Check the below mentioned to set the custom error attribute to get the detailed error instead of “sorry something went wrong”

Every change you make in that config files have no effect on the web application. You have to go the web.config file that is generated once the web application is created.
So edit the web.config file in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\your port number and modify the parameters you have indicated in that web.config file

               1. custom Errors mode must be "Off"
               2. compilation debug must be "true"
               3. Safe Mode Call Stack must be "true"


The 'port number' is the port you assigned when you created the Web Application in the Central Administration
