It is, and it’s even in existence within the MS packages. I found
Blend_Core.msi from the VS 11 Ultimate Beta to have a cert but not have
validation. (Yes, I was digging in crazy locations to see what I was doing
wrong.)

Ahh, that's an interesting (separate) bug if true.

I have seen that MsiDatabaseImport does not add entries in the _Validation
table if the imported table does not exist before. Are those entries required
anyways? It triggers an ICE03 error “Missing data in _Validation table or old
Database”, but I have no idea if this is actually something to fix.
Kind regards,

Re: ::MsiDatabaseImport()
It is a bit of a pain to debug when there are failures however:
1. MsiDatabaseImport is a couple orders of magnitude faster to create the MSI
over using the SQL queries.
2. MsiDatabaseImport creates the smallest MSI files. The SQL insert/update
queries can add "hot air" to an MSI so we want to minimize their use to what is
absolutely necessary.

When looking at SFBUG 3340 and 3341, I attempted to prefix the identifier.
Any time I use anything other than the hash it fails to import. I’ve tried
multiple variations (_, cer, Z, etc) of a prefix. Each time I have verified
that the certificate name in the IDT matches that of the file on disk in the
MsiDigitalCertificate sub folder. I’ve tried it with only changing the
identifier and with changing both the identifier and the file name.
By chance is there something mis-documented on either the table definition or
the MsiDatabaseImport function? (Is there a reason we are using this instead of
using the DB functions directly?)
It may be worth mentioning that I can’t even adjust this value with Orca. It
fails on commit with “The data was rejected by the database. It may be out of
the valid range or formatted incorrectly”. I can modify the identifier in the
MsiDigitalSignature table, and I can modify another record in the
MsiDigitalCertificate table. (I have a local fix that leaves the named key from
the MsiPatchCertificate table in place.) The only other unique thing I can
think of is both certs are identical.
Thanks,
Jacob
