http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7853 Summary: GetSystemDirectory returns wrong directory to 16-bit apps Product: Wine Version: 0.9.33. Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-kernel AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: wine.bug.fr.200703(a)edavies.nildram.co.uk I'm having problems installing VB 3.0 under Wine. To try to diagnose the problem I wrote a short test program in MSVC 1.52 (16-bit C) to display the results of GetWindowsDirectory and GetSystemDirectory. I ran this under Windows XP and Wine under Linux and got different results: Windows XP: GetWindowsDirectory = C:\WINDOWS GetSystemDirectory = C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM Wine: GetWindowsDirectory = c:\windows GetSystemDirectory = c:\windows\system32 The differences are the case of the names returned (particularly the drive letter which I has a suspicion is tripping up the VB 3.0 installation) and also the response of the 32-bit directory name for GetSystemDirectory. I noticed this problem on previous versions of Wine. Instead of accepting the default Ubuntu upgrade to 0.9.33 I uninstalled Wine (including configuration information) and did a clean install of 0.9.33 for these tests. Once I've committed this report I'll attempt to attach a tar.gz of the source and executable of the test program. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
