Troubleshooting: The server is unwilling to process the request Introduction to Error Code 80072035 This error, code 80072035 occurs when you execute a VBScript. My suggestion is you are trying to set a user property which the security policy forbids. This is a tricky error because it may be a policy on the server, rather than a pure scripting error, which halts your script. Cameron Anderson also points out that it could be that you are trying to rename a user that already exists. The Symptoms You Get with error 80072035  When you execute the script you get a message box like this (See diagram). The VBScript does execute as you hoped. The Cause of Code 80072035One possibility is that you trying to enable or ‘set’ a user account. The problem is that the account must have a password and none is provided. Another possibility is that your domain policy requires a complex password. In terms of pure troubleshooting, the big clue is the Line: number. Also Char: 5 helps to pinpoint the error. Guy Recommends: SolarWinds’ Free Bulk Import Tool Import users from a spreadsheet. Just provide a list of the users with their fields in the top row, and save as .csv file. Then launch this FREE utility and match your fields with AD’s attributes, click and import the users. Optionally, you can provide the name of the OU where the new accounts will be born. Download your FREE bulk import tool. If you need more comprehensive software, download a free trial of SAM (Server & Application Monitor) The SolutionAdd a set password instruction to the script. Even try a complex password such as P@$$w07rd Alternatively, reset the domain policy and lessen security just while you run the script. In this case you could change the UserAccountControl value to 514, just to see if the script completes successfully. Cameron Anderson also points out that it could be that you are trying to rename a user that already exists; if so, choose a different name. In this scenario, also look at the sAMAccountName. Example of Script showing Code 80072035 objUser.SetInfo This is where the error is to be found. The line is indented 5 characters so the problem is with the first word = objUser. Set objRootDSE = GetObject("LDAP://rootDSE") Set objContainer=GetObject("LDAP://cn=Users," & _ objRootDSE.Get("defaultNamingContext")) intAccValue=512 Set objOu = GetObject("LDAP://cn=Users," & _ objRootDSE.Get("defaultNamingContext")) For each objUser in objOu strUname=objUser.get("name") If Left(strUname,4) ="User" Then objUser.Put "userAccountControl", intAccValue objUser.SetInfo Wscript.Echo strUname End if next Wscript.Echo "Users Enabled" Guy Recommends: WMI Monitor and It’s Free!
