Hello,
I have 4 DC's (dc1, dc2, dc3 - based on Windows Server 2008 R2 and dc4 - Windows Server 2012) and GP worked fine last week. This morning I realized that'User Configuration' GP doesn't work at all with regular user permissions, but work fine with domain admin permissions. At the same time, 'Computer Configuration' doesn't have any problem.
When I tried to use GPUpdate /force with user's permissions I've got an error :"The processing of Group Policy failed. Windows could not locate the directory object OU=xxx, DC=domain, DC=com".
Also, I've got an error in event viewer "The processing of Group Policy failed. Windows could not locate the directory object OU=xxx, DC=domain, DC=com.....".
Same thing happened when I tried to use GPUpdate /force with command line with elevated permissions.
I would be much appreciate for any help with it.
