Article ID: 961551 - Last Review: August 26, 2009 - Revision: 3.0 An error message is returned when you run the Get-Recipient command in the Exchange Management Shell that uses a Windows Server 2008 domain controller
SYMPTOMSConsider the following scenario. In
an Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1 (SP1) environment, there are more than 1,000 users in the
organization. You perform a filtered search against a Windows Server 2008 R2 domain
controller. Then you receive an error when you run the following PowerShell
command: The following error is returned in this scenario: Get-Recipient : Active Directory operation failed on <Windows Server 2008 domain controller name>. Additional information: Active Directory rejected paged search cookie because a cookie handle was discarded by a domain controller or a different LDAP connection was used on subsequent page retrieval. Restart paged search. CAUSEExchange Server 2007 SP1 passes different BaseDN attributes
during the paged search. This is usually not a problem because the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server just
ignores successive BaseDN attributes in earlier versions of Windows. However, Windows Server 2008 R2 rejects all successive searches if
the BaseDN attributes are different. Note A BaseDN attribute is a starting point in the Active Directory hierarchy where any given search starts. RESOLUTIONTo resolve this problem, install Update Rollup 9 for
Exchange 2007 Service Pack 1. For more information about Update Rollup 9 for Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1, see the following Exchange Help topic: Description of Update Rollup 9 for Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1
