Local fix

Problem summary

• When the customer tries to put a secondary path into the
  outline directory in ReqWeb the value is still set to null
  and they cannot save the new file path.
  

Problem conclusion

• This is a problem with permission the WAS service is running
  as.  For access to registry values the service must run as
  the administrator and not as the default system admin
  account.  To make this change locate the WAS Service and go
  into the Properties.  On the properties go to the Log On tab
  and change the value to Run As.  Type in the administrator
  accont and password.  Close the dialog and restart the
  service and this should solve the problem.  Note: Running
  the service as the Local System account while logged in as
  administrator is not the same as making the change above.
  

Temporary fix
