Please let me know how to fix this issue .

DirectorySearcher searcher = new DirectorySearcher(a,b);
SearchResult result = searcher.FindOne();
DirectoryEntry dsresult = result.GetDirectoryEntry();

LDAP Error (0x800500c) when acessing extensionattribtes,works as expected for some attributes

when trying to acess property from dsresult getting error:(Activedirectory searh result)

'dsresult.Properties["extensionAttribute1"]' threw an exception of type 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException'

Hi Kavya,
Please try to check the following:
1. Check the schema to ensure that the extensionAttribute1 attribute is defined and that it is being set for the relevant objects.
2. Check the value of the attribute for the object you are querying to make sure that it is set.
3. Check your permissions to ensure that you have the necessary rights to read the attribute.
4. Check the LDAP connection and the Active Directory server to make sure that they are functioning properly.
