System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryServicesCOMException: An operations error occurred.

I'm trying to get the email address from a user that is submitting an ASP.NET form on the local intranet. When testing this on my local machine it works fine. But when I publish and begin testing it in production it doesn't like line 74.

Server Error in '/' Application.
