Having a problem copying a registry value from HKCU to HKLM. It is a DWORD and I am using this code to enumerate all the keys and copy them at a certain time of my install.
HRESULT hr = S_OK;
UINT er = ERROR_SUCCESS;
HKEY hKey;
char szProductKey[MAX_PATH], lszValue[MAX_PATH];
TCHAR achKey[MAX_KEY_LENGTH], achClass[MAX_PATH] = TEXT(""), achValue[MAX_VALUE_NAME];
DWORD cbName, cchClassName = MAX_PATH, cSubKeys=0, cbMaxSubKey, cchMaxClass, cValues, cchMaxValue, cbMaxValueData, cbSecurityDescriptor;
FILETIME ftLastWriteTime;
PHKEY phkResult = NULL;
DWORD i, retCode, cchValue = MAX_VALUE_NAME,dwType=REG_SZ,dwSKeyValueSize,dwSize=255;
hr = WcaInitialize(hInstall, "ReadTempRegKey");
ExitOnFailure(hr, "Failed to initialize");
WcaLog(LOGMSG_STANDARD, "Initialized.");
Orc_Reg_Sub_LM_CU();
sprintf_s(szProductKey, "SOFTWARE\\M\\%s",Orc_Get_Product_Name());
WcaLog(LOGMSG_STANDARD , szProductKey);
if( RegOpenKeyEx( HKEY_CURRENT_USER,
szProductKey,
0,
KEY_READ,
&hKey) == ERROR_SUCCESS
)
{
//Get the class name and the value count.
retCode = RegQueryInfoKey(
hKey, // key handle
achClass, // buffer for class name
&cchClassName, // size of class string
NULL, // reserved
&cSubKeys, // number of subkeys
&cbMaxSubKey, // longest subkey size
&cchMaxClass, // longest class string
&cValues, // number of values for this key
&cchMaxValue, // longest value name
&cbMaxValueData, // longest value data
&cbSecurityDescriptor, // security descriptor
&ftLastWriteTime); // last write time
// Enumerate the subkeys, until RegEnumKeyEx fails.
if (cSubKeys)
{
for (i=0; i<cSubKeys; i++)
{
cbName = MAX_KEY_LENGTH;
retCode = RegEnumKeyEx(hKey, i,
achKey,
&cbName,
NULL,
NULL,
NULL,
&ftLastWriteTime);
}
}
//Enumerate the key values.
if (cValues)
{
for (i=0, retCode=ERROR_SUCCESS; i<cValues; i++)
{
cchValue = MAX_VALUE_NAME;
achValue[0] = '\0';
retCode = RegEnumValue(hKey, i,
achValue,
&cchValue,
NULL,
NULL,
NULL,
NULL);
if (retCode == ERROR_SUCCESS )
{
DWORD dwSize = sizeof(lszValue);
retCode = RegQueryValueEx(hKey, achValue, NULL, &dwType,(LPBYTE)&lszValue, &dwSize);
if (retCode == ERROR_SUCCESS)
{
Orc_Reg_Stop_LM_CU();
dwSKeyValueSize = strlen((char*) lszValue);
Orc_RegValue(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,
"SOFTWARE\\M\\Orchestrator",
KEY_SET_VALUE,
achValue,
&dwType,
(unsigned char *)lszValue,
&dwSKeyValueSize);
}
}
}
}
}
After the copy the value for the registry is correct but the data says invalid dword 32-bit value
Does anyone know what would cause this?
Thanks
You get the invalid dword 32-bit value
message because the last parameter passed to Orc_RegValue()
is incorrect. The correct value for REG_DWORD data type is sizeof(DWORD)
.
Try passing dwSize
instead of dwSKeyValueSize
Orc_RegValue(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,
"SOFTWARE\\M\\Orchestrator",
KEY_SET_VALUE,
achValue,
&dwType,
(unsigned char *)lszValue,
&dwSize);
Alternatively you can try
dwSKeyValueSize = dwSize;
instead of
dwSKeyValueSize = strlen((char*) lszValue);
