Why I am unable to join a SMB server to Active Directory domain

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

I tried to unjoin the server from the domain and joined back up and this is the error I get

/usr/bin/net join -w US_NT_BObb -S tijhkjj-dc1 -U testuser 
testuser's password:  
Using short domain name -- US_NT_BObb 
Failed to set servicePrincipalNames. Please ensure that

Or rejoin with using Domain Admin credentials.
