401 Unauthorized errors on SharePoint 2013

In my SharePoint 2013 development environment I found a new issue which was not happened in past, I suddenly ran into 401 unauthorized errors.
Those errors would occur only when the pages would be rendered through the /_layouts/15/start.aspx page. This specific page is responsible for loading pages from a site using the Minimal Download Strategy feature, a new feature in SharePoint 2013 that improves client rendering performance and fluidity for navigating from one page to another page by downloading only the changes between two pages.

Error:
401 unauthorized

Solution:
If you are experiencing those 401 unauthorized errors, simply disable the following feature for now.
Site Settings > Manage Site Features > Minimal Download Strategy (see the image below)

Error occurred in deployment step 'Recycle IIS Application Pool': The local SharePoint server is not available. Check that the server is running and connected to the SharePoint farm.

Error:
Error occurred in deployment step 'Recycle IIS Application Pool': The local SharePoint server is not available. Check that the server is running and connected to the SharePoint farm. (see the image below)

Cause:
Your login user has no 'db_owner' access for SharePoint Databases.

1. SharePoint_Config

2. SharePoint_AdminContent_[XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX]

3.Your web application DB in which you want to deploy WSP (Example. WSS_Content_XXXX)

Solution:

Now connect your SQL Server with admin user.

Then select your user which has error in deployment.

Then assign all above DBs to db_owner rights. (see the image below)

Now try to deploy your WSP.

You can successfully deploy WSP.

            foreach (XPathNavigator selectedNode in sentToIterator)
            {
                if (count < sentToIterator.Count)
                {
                    result += selectedNode.InnerXml +"; ";
                    count++;
