Hi,
I am getting an System.InvalidOperationException while compiling
a WXS file with util:PermissionEx
element under RegistryKey element. I
am using WIX build 3.6.3303.0.
These are the elements –
<RegistryKey Root="HKLM"
Key="SOFTWARE\MyProject">
<RegistryValue Name="Root" Type="expandable"
Value="C:\TestRoot" />
<util:PermissionEx
xmlns:util="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/UtilExtension";
User="ProjectAdministrators"
GenericAll="yes" />
</RegistryKey>
Here is the exception with stack trace –
candle.exe : error CNDL0001 : Cannot set column
'SecureObject' with a null value because this is a required field.
Exception Type: System.InvalidOperationException
Stack Trace:

Is this a known issue? Are there any other alternatives to
util:PermissionEx ?
