Hi! Yesterday I setup a WiX project with MSBuild and everything worked fine when I ran it locally, and I comitted the changes. However, our nightly build failed with error LGHT0217. And I did read the FAQ and the linked blog posts on how to fix it.
But the solution, as I understand it, is to modify the registry settings for the user executing the build job. And my problem is that I have no means of modifying the registry settings for the user account that executes the build job, other than via the actual build job. I did try instead to execute the registry command operations inside my build script, but the following commands all failed because the key did not exist. reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}" /f reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}" /f reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{F414C260-6AC0-11CF-B6D1-00AA00BBBB58}" /f reg delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{F414C260-6AC0-11CF-B6D1-00AA00BBBB58}" /f build 19-Jun-2013 09:59:15 Executing WiXErrorLGHT0217WorkAround error 19-Jun-2013 09:59:15 ERROR: The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value. error 19-Jun-2013 09:59:15 ERROR: The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value. error 19-Jun-2013 09:59:15 ERROR: The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value. error 19-Jun-2013 09:59:15 ERROR: The system was unable to find the specified registry key or value. Or is it possible to disable the validation?
