http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13303 Summary: Frasse and the Peas of Kejick does not run after using the .exe installer Product: Wine Version: CVS/GIT Platform: PC URL: http://trumgottist.com/frasseinstaller.exe OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: madewokherd(a)gmail.com Created an attachment (id=13160) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=13160) screenshot of error When using the .exe installer for Frasse and the Peas of Kejick, the install process appears to succeed, but the game pops up the following error instead of starting: SLUDGE v1.6 startup error!

The command is: env WINEPREFIX="/home/meh/.wine" wine "C:\Program Files\Frasse and the Peas of Kejick\Frasse.exe" C:\windows\profiles\meh\Application Data\Frasse and the Peas of Kejick\Frasse.slg The \ character is being treated specially on Linux. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13303 --- Comment #2 from Vincent Povirk <madewokherd(a)gmail.com> 2008-05-18 18:33:47 --- Ok, well, that's the last time I trust the menu editor to tell me anything. In the .desktop file, the actual line is: Exec=env WINEPREFIX="/home/meh/.wine" wine "C:\\Program Files\\Frasse and the Peas of Kejick\\Frasse.exe" C:\\windows\\profiles\\meh\\Application Data\\Frasse and the Peas of Kejick\\Frasse.slg Which I can copy/paste into a terminal, and that makes everything ok. I can also do this: Exec=env WINEPREFIX="/home/meh/.wine" wine "C:\\Program Files\\Frasse and the Peas of Kejick\\Frasse.exe" "C:\\windows\\profiles\\meh\\Application" "Data\\Frasse" and the Peas of "Kejick\\Frasse.slg" or this: Exec=env WINEPREFIX="/home/meh/.wine" wine "C:\\Program Files\\Frasse and the Peas of Kejick\\Frasse.exe" C:\\\\windows\\\\profiles\\\\meh\\\\Application Data\\\\Frasse and the Peas of Kejick\\\\Frasse.slg Apparently .desktop requires, for a reason I do not understand, that everything weird is escaped twice. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13303 --- Comment #3 from Vincent Povirk <madewokherd(a)gmail.com> 2008-05-18 20:59:23 --- Created an attachment (id=13165) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=13165) patch to escape things for .desktop files more This patch seems to solve the issue.
From the Desktop Entry spec, it appears \\\\ is the correct way to represent a \ in the Exec field, whether the \ happens to be in quotation marks or not. For some reason, \\ happens to result in a \ sent to the program if it happens to be in quotes, but it's not clear whether this is reliable behavior, and it does not happen outside of the quotes.

The .lnk files has the arguments without double quotes so the .desktop file should treat the different parts of the filename as separate arguments. It would be impossible for Wine to determine the semantics involved. And I've just tried putting the whole thing in double-quotes using the shell.

It works in Windows. Winemenubuilder isn't escaping \'s properly when it creates the .desktop files.
I wasn't using the menu shortcut, I ran it from terminal. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Running it from terminal for me gave the same results windows does, which was my question. The bug is about the .desktop shortcut.

Windows itself can quote and escape arguments, in an undocumented way that is different from fd.o (but seems like what shell32 does?), and contain %windir% and other fun inside the arguments. So the arguments need to be unescaped, preprocessed and argified, then re-escaped in fd.o style multiple backslashes. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
