An Operations Error Occurred Active Directory
creating a new user in active directory, either by creating new or trying to copy and existing user, once you click next after the password section i receive the error message. "An error occurred. Contact your system administrator" there is no event log, and nothing i can work with. this is a server that i service remotely for adifferentcompany, ive spent the last 2 days resolving other errors in the event logs in hopes that one of them would also fix this issue. but i have reached the end of the event logs issues and this problem still remains. windows server 2003 R2 SP2 looking forward to hearing from anyone.

Rename the existing administrator profile(or theaffected profile)folder under documents and settings. to "profilename_old" 3. log back in as the affected user. the profile is recreated and usercreation/passwords resets will work again!

Password does not meet domain complexity or length requirements. The Common Name (labeled "Full Name" when you create a user in ADUC) is not unique in the OU/container. Pre-Windows 2000 logon name is not unique in the domain. Pre-Windows 2000 logon name includes any of the following characters: " [ ] : ; | = + * ? < > / \ , Pre-Windows 2000 logon name over 20 characters in length. Common Name over 64 characters long.

26, 2015 by Jacob Rutski This morning I went to create a new user account for someone that started today (uber-last minute request). I log on to the Exchange server (exch 2003- so this is the only place that the exch tools are installed) and try to create the account- only to receive the following error: Active Directory - An error occurred. Contact your system administrator. Wow, that was helpful- thanks for that…I AM the administrator. I then proceed to scour the event logs on the exchange server and all DCs…nothing out of the ordinary. At all. Can I create the https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/c47a2b75-3387-4b4d-a958-3ea783eafbc8/error-during-active-directory-use-account-creation?forum=winserverManagement account on another DC (or locally) and then add a mailbox later? The account create works fine on another DC and my workstation, but when I go back to exchange and try to add a mailbox, the only exchange task available is ‘Remove exchange attributes'. Looking at where the error was happening - right when I tried to choose ‘Next' after entering a password, I tried to https://blogs.serioustek.net/post/2010/11/01/active-directory-unable-to-add-user-or-change-password-aspx change a password on a disabled account (from the exchange server) and was greeted with another, excessively helpful error message: Active Directory - Windows cannot complete the password change for %Username% because: The network path was not found At that point, I remembered having been working with the Folder Redirect GPOs last week, and I may have linked one to the admin-user OU to test. When I looked, the GPO was not linked- and the GPResult on the exchange server did not show it either. Did I log on to the exchange server when the GPO was linked? Finally, I checked the user shell locations- HKCU > Software > Microsoft > Windows > CurrentVersion > Explorer > User Shell Folders Only to find that on the exchange server, my admin account had pulled the GPO for the AppData folder, and even though it was removed, UserShellFolder location for AppData was still showing the old, and invalid location. As soon as Ipointed AppData back to thecorrect - local- location,everything worked perfectly. 00000 Categories UncategorizedTags Active Directory, Exchange, Failure, GPO Post navigation TS Web Access Upgrade to 2008R2 - RD Web HP Compaq NC6000 Windows 7 4 thoughts on &ldquo

The only tools an error occurred that you can (should) run on Windows XP are the ones from Windows 2003 CD. You can either run adminpak.msi on your Windows XP from Windows 2003 Server CD or download the tools from here: Windows Server 2003 Administration Tools Pack http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...15-c8f4-47ef-a1e4-a8dcbacff8e3&DisplayLang=en Before installation on these Windows 2003 tools uninstall Windows 2000 tools.

is an updated version of this article for Ubuntu 16.04 here. I love to mess around with Linux in my home lab and I like to check out the state of Samba from time to time. I have documented the steps that I took to get Samba 4 working as a Active Directory Domain Controller and also made a screencast that I have cross-posted on YouTube. I chose Ubuntu because they have pretty recent packages of Samba, more info about binary packages for different Distributions on the Samba Wiki. If you are following this as a guide, I'm assuming that you have already installed Ubuntu 14.04. If you do watch the screencast, it is best viewed in HD! This is the setup: This is just a reference as some of these will be unique to your setup.
