nLite 1.2 RC Advanced INF error

[JerichoJones]

I have been getting the "Access is Denied" error on first boot under Win2K Svr(Win2K3 works fine). After a lot of research I have narrowed it down to what appears to be a permission error in the registry.

HKLM,"Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer","InstallerLocation",0x00000000,"%10%\system32\"

Issues:

This key is set to NOT inherit perms

ADMINISTRATORS perms are defined as READ ONLY on this key ONLY (no downlevel inheritance)

SYSTEM perms are defined as FULL CONTROL on this key ONLY (no downlevel inheritance)

I looked at an out of the box Win2k Svr install and the perms should be:

This key is set to NOT inherit perms

ADMINISTRATORS perms are defined as FULL CONTROL on this key and subkeys

SYSTEM perms are defined as FULL CONTROL on this key and subkeys

EVERYONE perms are defined as READ ONLY on this key and subkeys

OK. I went back to 1.0.1 and the problem went away. Looks like a bug.

Just for a test why dont you try this and see if you get the same error:

HKLM,"Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer","InstallerLocation",0x00000000,"%11%"

JerichoJones, I presume this entry is from MSI installer integration, gonna try in 2k server later on, thx for reporting.

Until then you can avoid that hotfix integration if you want to use the 1.2

I'll stick with 1.0.1 for now.

Thanks nuhi!
