Hi,
I am new to active directory and am trying to query it for the user name and ID of members of a group to populate a drop down list in the form: firstname lastname (userID)
When I run the page which calls this function through visual studio it works fine and the drop down list is populated. However when I run the page over the intranet I get this error.
Unknown error (0x8000500c)
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Unknown error (0x8000500c)
Exception Details: System.Runtime. InteropServices .COMException:
Source Error:
Line 152: userProps = gpMemberEntry.P roperties
Line 154: obVal = userProps("Give nName").Value & " " & userProps("sn") .Value & " (" & userProps("sAMA ccountName").Va lue & ")"
with this code:
Dim _path As String = "LDAP://WI.FCIB.COM/DC=WI, DC=FCIB, DC=COM"
Dim groupMembers As New StringCollectio n
' Try
Dim ent As New DirectoryEntry( _path)
Dim srch As New DirectorySearch er("(" & strGroup & ")")
Dim coll As SearchResultCol lection
'Get the results
coll = srch.FindAll()
Dim rs As SearchResult
'Get the information for each member found
For Each rs In coll
Dim resultPropColl As ResultPropertyC ollection
Dim memberColl As Object
resultPropColl = rs.Properties
For Each memberColl In resultPropColl( "member")
Dim gpMemberEntry As New DirectoryEntry( "LDAP://WI.FCIB.COM/" & memberColl.ToSt ring)
Dim userProps As PropertyCollect ion
Dim obVal As Object
userProps = gpMemberEntry.P roperties
obVal = userProps("Give nName").Value & " " & userProps("sn") .Value & " (" & userProps("sAMA ccountName").Va lue & ")"
If Not obVal Is Nothing Then
groupMembers.Ad d(obVal.ToStrin g)
End If
Next
Next
Return groupMembers
'Catch ex As Exception
' Return Nothing
'End Try
For some quick debugging I tried:
Dim _path As String = "LDAP://WI.FCIB.COM/DC=WI, DC=FCIB, DC=COM"
Dim groupMembers As New StringCollectio n
' Try
Dim ent As New DirectoryEntry( _path)
Dim srch As New DirectorySearch er("(" & strGroup & ")")
Dim coll As SearchResultCol lection
'Get the results
coll = srch.FindAll()
Dim rs As SearchResult
'Get the information for each member found
For Each rs In coll
Dim resultPropColl As ResultPropertyC ollection
Dim memberColl As Object
resultPropColl = rs.Properties
For Each memberColl In resultPropColl( "member")
Dim gpMemberEntry As New DirectoryEntry( "LDAP://WI.FCIB.COM/" & memberColl.ToSt ring)
Dim userProps As PropertyCollect ion
Dim obVal As Object
userProps = gpMemberEntry.P roperties
My.Response.Wri te("< br/>" & userProps("Give nName").Value)
My.Response.Wri te(" " & userProps("sn") .Value)
My.Response.Wri te(" " & userProps("sAMA ccountName").Va lue)
'obVal = userProps("Give nName").Value & " " & userProps("sn") .Value & " (" & userProps("SAMA ccountName").Va lue & ")"
'If Not obVal Is Nothing Then
' groupMembers.Ad d(obVal.ToStrin g)
'End If
Next
Next
Return groupMembers
'Catch ex As Exception
' Return Nothing
'End Try
Which gave me the same error except it was for the line:
My.Response.Wri te(" " & userProps("sAMA ccountName").Va lue)
Does this then mean that I can't load this attribute? And if so, how can I get around it because I must get the userIDs from AD
Thanks for the help.
