https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21032 --- Comment #8 from Anastasius Focht <focht(a)gmx.net> --- Hello super_man, --- quote --- but I don't know if the server is really responding anymore to requests. Nothing seem to be downloaded also the console shows --- quote --- well, start the installer with appropriate debug channel(s) for more diagnosis: --- snip --- $ WINEDEBUG=+tid,+wininet wine ./ai8.3.exe ... 003c:trace:wininet:InternetCrackUrlA "ftp://www.sfrep.com/dloads/web_setup/microsoft visual basic virtual machine 6.0 with service pack 6.7zip": scheme((null)) host((null)) path("/dloads/web_setup/microsoft visual basic virtual machine 6.0 with service pack 6.7zip") extra((null)) ... 003d:trace:wininet:FTP_Connect 0x2100a0 Server(L"www.sfrep.com") Port(21) User(L"") Paswd(L"") 003d:trace:wininet:WININET_AddRef 0x2100a0 -> refcount = 3 003d:trace:wininet:FTP_Connect Password used for anonymous ftp : (L"focht") 003d:trace:wininet:SendAsyncCallback (0x2100a0, 012687a0, 10 (INTERNET_STATUS_RESOLVING_NAME), 0x1d2e58c, 28): async call with callback 0x7cd3a6aa ... <timeout> --- snip --- You can also use some online FTP testing service if you can't rule out that local/upstream providers filter/cheat here. https://ftptest.net Anyway, the FTP service (but not the host itself) seems dead to me. It should be possible to replicate the "cancel" behaviour of the prerequisite download with a small test app, using some anon FTP server payload. $ sha1sum ai8.3.exe 3680098ca35b6f06108fccbdd4cef6a9809bb364 ai8.3.exe $ du -sh ai8.3.exe 35M ai8.3.exe $ wine --version wine-1.7.54-332-g370254c Regards -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
