Thanks Adam for the useful links.I am trying to execute this code from a recipe to get the values of registry
require 'win32/registry'keynameComp= "SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\computername\\computername"
keynameActive= "SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\computername\\activecomputername"
compName = ""
compNameActive = ""
access =Win32::Registry::KEY_ALL_ACCESS
Win32::Registry::HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.open(keynameComp, KEY_READ) do |reg|
reg.each{|name, value, keys | compName = keys}
end
::Win32::Registry::HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.open(keynameActive, KEY_READ) do |reg|
reg.each{|name, value, keys | compNameActive = keys}
endI am getting error messages as "[2015-03-02T09:52:32+00:00] FATAL: NameError: uninitialized constant Chef::Win32::Registry::KEY_ALL_ACCESS"Would like to know, do I need to include any other gem?Thanks & Regards,Sachin GuptaOn Fri, Feb 27, 2015 at 2:59 AM, Adam Edwards < " target="_blank"> > wrote:Sachin, have you looked at the docs for the registry_key resource: https://docs.chef.io/resource_registry_key.html, http://docs.chef.io/release/12-0/dsl_recipe.html#registry-get-values ?
The registry_key_get_values? DSL element seems like a good place to start, the docs should have examples that clarify the usage.

Subject: [chef] Read windows registry Key values
Hi All,
I am working on a use case where I need to read two registry key values and compare there data in a recipe
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\ComputerName\\ActiveComputerName
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\ComputerName\\ComputerName
both are having a value name(ComputerName) and value data(may be same or different). I need to compare there value data.Do I need to write like this:; or some other better way??
Win32::Registry::HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.open(keynameComp, access) do |reg|
reg.each{|name, value, keys | compName = keys}
end
Win32::Registry::HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.open(keynameActive, access) do |reg|
reg.each{|name, value, keys | compNameActive = keys}
end
Any idea??
Thanks & Regards,
Sachin Gupta
