    Hi I am trying to configure sqlserver audit on sql2012. But when i am trying to enable audit(choosed to write to security log) it is throwing error "Error: 33208, Severity: 17, State: 1. SQL Server Audit failed to access the security log. Make sure that the SQL service account has the required permissions to access the security log.".

    While i asked my windows admin, to grant the privileges, They had given necessary prvileges for the sqlservice account to write to security log, but still i am seeing the same issue.

    I modified the registry as suggested in "https://www.sqlskills.com/blogs/jonathan/resolving-error-33204-sql-server-audit-could-not-write-to-the-security-log/".

    Please suggest me.
