Active Directory/LDAP :: Cannot Convert Type 'string' To ConstantExpression
Jan 7, 2010
Cannot convert type 'string' to ConstantExpression I am using the Linq to Active Directory script that is out on the net. When I do my Where clause with a pure string i manually put in "string". If I use a variable I get from a textbox (which makes sense if I am creating a search!) it will not work. I debugged and found it is having issues converting. Maybe something can be changed or maybe there is another way for me to do this?
I was unable to read any Interger8 datatype in AD. For example, "lockoutTime" in User object in the Directory. I was just always got System.Runtime type and unable to cast to any other readable type.I was also using Active Directory Explorer to see this property in the AD. I saw the property schema is defined as "Integer8".Does anyone who know how to read this data out? I was trying a lot of time and still failed.
I am new to active directories and i am following http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms998360.aspx this link. It says at one place that we need to set the LDAP string to the relevant users container within your domain.
how exactly can i find out the exact string format and also
I am using System.directory services namespace in framework 2 to query active directory. I have used fixed user account impersonisation in the web.config file, find the code:
I have disabled anonymous access in IIS. Also i have given Read & write access to the account tang09 for the website virtual directory and Microsoft.NET folder located in windows folder. But still i get prompted for the domain username and password to access the website.
I want to learn how to add/delete/update account (including adding mail boxes for new users). Can someone point to a good book where I can begin from. I want to start with some real basics and build from there.
have a probleme with my search filter, i want to list the users of an organizational unit result.filter =(& (objectClass= user)(ou=dep1)); ====> it didn't work for me
I need to list a group of users, their group name is (IRS Group) to a list group. how to do this. I'm very new to asp.net and dont have much knowlegde about acctive directory.
I am updating some CS code that was written in 2004, and that references some assemblies which extract user data from AD by query filtering on the user's title. I can't test my updated code in VS2010 because the assemblies no longer compile - the references are no longer valid (I can't create a DirectoryEntry or DirectorySearcher) so I need to work out how to replace the code with current directoryservices.accountmanagement namespace properties and methods. I have searched around but don't seem to be getting anywhere. give me some code that will work with vs 2010 to replicate the following:
I have a problem with saving some data into extensionattribute in AD.There is no problem with saving data into properties like "Mobile" or "SN" but when I try to save data into one of extensionAttribute , for example: extensionAttribute7 , I get an error "The attribute syntax specified to the directory service is invalid".There is no problems of read data from extension Attributes.
I am looking at displaying certain information from Active Directory within an ASP.NET web page/application to allow users of my organisation to update thCe specified fields. I have searched the internet for help and found windows forms based information, but nothing to really help me with ASP.NET, and anything that could possibly be of any assistance to me is written in C#. I have already built a logon form that hands forms based authentication against AD, and now want to display that authenticated user information.
I have read countless forums and found nothing so for so apparently what I need is an unusual request.I need a code snippet that will iterate through an AD domain account and display all properties for a given user.Has anyone ever built such a script?
If there is a code snippet that displays just the available properties of a user object, this would be sufficient. I am trying to build an application to add users to our LDAP and need to populate all our specific values however I don't have the specific property names to populate.
