How to add action link to EPM FR

Question

I'm trying to add capability of linking to EPM FR by adding <registry> section in ActionFrameworkConfig.xml ,after that the content looks like this,
     <registries>
          <registry>
               <id>HDPreg</id>
               <name>Hyperion Directory Provider</name>
                    <content-type>epm</content-type>
               <provider-class>oracle.bi.action.registry.epm.HDPRegistry
                    </provider-class>
               <description>Hyperion Financial Reports Registry</description>
          <location>
          <path>http://epmfoundation:19000/workspace/browse/listXML</path>
          </location>
          <service-access>
          <account>EPM</account>
          </service-access>
     </registry>
</registries>
the xml file was valid that can be opened normally by IE.
then I added the credential of "EPM" mapping to user admin who was given the administrator roles of FR,in fact i gave it all the roles under the financial report node in Shared Service.
then I restarted the BI Server,and even restarted the computer. but when I added the action link by clicking the add new acliton link icon, an error occured said
Trying to read a config value before initializing the reader
and the EPM action link type was not shown in the action type list
what else i should do to make it work?
thanks

Here is the correct format of ActionFrameworkConfig.xml.
This is your EPM workspace/raframework location - <path>http://WinSvr64EPM:19000/raframework/browse/listXML</path>
Thiis same EPM key need to create in credential store
<account>
     <name>EPM</name>
     <description>Account used to access EPM.</description>
     <adminonly>false</adminonly>
     <credentialkey>EPM</credentialkey>
</account>
Below is my config file, it's working.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<obi-action-config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="afconfig.xsd">
