SPContext.Current throws SecurityException for most properties.

Question

Many properties for SPContext.Current objects throws SecurityException. (Like SPContext.Current.Fields, many properties in SPContext.Current.Site (see details).

• DLL Is in GAC
• Using Site Owner when trying those properties.
• Maybe it has to do something with database access? However SharePoint site is working - I can add list items, etc.
• Application Pool has permissions to database. Should I set application pool account as farm admin or it is not necessary?
• In my Development environment, it just works.

Where could be the problem? Could someone, please, point me in right direction?

Thank you.

Event Viewer has bunch of errors

• for SharePoint search Indexer (i don't have a working search at the moment, I just hope it is not the problem)

• And there is an error about Alternate Access Mapping (Sometimes I access SharePoint from IP address, not from hostname, as hostnames do not resolve in VPN for me, but that's a different problem):

  The description for Event ID ( 8214 ) in Source ( Windows SharePoint Services 3 ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: A request was made for a URL, http://192.168.0.9, which has not been configured in Alternate Access Mappings. Some links may point to the Alternate Access URL for the default zone, http://serveris. Review the Alternate Access mappings for this Web application at http://serveris:38590/_admin/AlternateUrlCollections.aspx and consider adding http://192.168.0.9 as a Public Alternate Access URL if it will be used frequently.

Ahh, the issue is now resolved after stepping already like 3rd time on the same rake.

It was happening in WebPart constructor (do not know if it plays a role, but inherited from Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.WebPart) and there the SPContext object was messed up.

Interesting that it works in my development environment.
