I'm still having trouble with this.
Say I create a group called "Group A". Now, if I want to add permissions for
this group to a registry key, what would the PermissionEx tag look like?
Here is one I have tried:
<Component Id="CID_blah" Guid="{some guid}" DiskId="1">
<RegistryKey Id="RID_blah" Root="HKLM" Key="some key" Action="create">
<RegistryValue Id="RVID_blah" Name="blah" Value="blah" Type="string"
Action="write"/>
<util:PermissionEx Read="yes" User="Group A"/>
</RegistryKey>
</Component>
I get the error:
ExecSecureObjects: Error 0x80070534: failed to get sid for account: Group A
I know that the account gets created because I don't have a rollback CA and
after rollback, the account is present. I also can see if verbose log file that
the CA that creates the account occurs before ExecSecureObjects.
Thanks,
Ian

They're formatted strings, so anything goes. Simple check: Is the group
created when SecureObjects is executed?
