Booking System - uerlist error

[ohickmott]

Hi there,

 

Thanks in advance for anyone reading my post and taking time to respond!

 

I have been playing around with the booking system and although everything appears to be working great when my staff users are logging out a System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException is thrown.

 

Having looked into this it would appear that for some reason none of my staff accounts are being imported into the system. Due to using Forefront Identity Manager all of my users are in that same OU which I have listed in the hapconfig with visibility for the booking system. The only thing that might be of interest is that my staff users have a different UPN to our student accounts but other than that I can't see why it imports all the student accounts fine but none of the staff even though they are all in the same OU.

 

The error page shows:

 

'userlist' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items.Parameter name: value 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.

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Ask them not to log out of the booking system page, it's bug in the code where it's doing the user select box lookup when a post back happens (as when you logout)

[ohickmott]

Thanks for your reply Nick! Do you have any ideas why the staff users would not be showing in the 'Users to Book For' drop down when logged in as an admin?

 

Thanks in advance for your time.

[nickbro]

Have you added that to the OU lookup section of the hapconfig.xml file?

[ohickmott]

Thanks Nick, unfortunately yes. From my first post:

 

all of my users are in that same OU which I have listed in the hapconfig with visibility for the booking system

[nickbro]

Odd, can you check the AD string in the hapConfig.xml file please, post it if needed.

Hi Nick,

 

I can't see anything wrong with the OU path, as I say all my users are in the same OU:

 

 

I do have nearly 4000 users in my domain which I am beginning to wonder if that is the issue as the drop down in the booking system only seems to show a fraction of them.

 

Thanks again for your time

[nickbro]

4000 users would probably not get rendered correctly in the drop down box, are you able to create sub ous?

[ohickmott]

Unfortunately not as with are using M$ Forefront Identity Manager Could you point me to the file that will contain the code for the drop down so I can have a play at getting it to render out a longer list?

                   userlist.Items.Add(new ListItem(user.UserName, user.UserName.ToLower()));
               else
                   userlist.Items.Add(new ListItem(string.Format("{0} - ({1})", user.UserName, user.Notes), user.UserName.ToLower()));
           userlist.SelectedValue = ADUser.UserName.ToLower();
