[Bug 55885] New: wine prefix not updated correctly when going back to previous wine version (new wow64, Framemaker 8)
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55885 Bug ID: 55885 Summary: wine prefix not updated correctly when going back to previous wine version (new wow64, Framemaker 8) Product: Wine Version: 8.20 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: ulrich.gemkow(a)ikr.uni-stuttgart.de Distribution: --- In the past it was possible to use an existing wine prefix with an older version of wine: When starting the old wine version, the prefix was updated according to the old version; It was possible to switch back and forth again. At least in one configuration I use regulary this does no longer work: After updating the wine prefix to wine 8.20 switching back to an old version shows the error 00d8:err:virtual:virtual_setup_exception stack overflow 16 bytes addr 0x7bc543cd stack 0x30ff0 (0x30000-0x31000-0x130000) It seems that updating the old prefix is only done partially. I am using the new experimental WOW64 mode, the used program is Framemaker 8 and the old wine version is wine 8.12 (which we use as reference). It is expected that switching back and forth should work? If yes, I can further investigate and try to bisect. If this is not supposed to work, please close this bug report.

We may be able to undo whatever broke, but I'm not sure how much of a priority it can be. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

But it worked in the past for many years and is very helpful when bisecting. I will try to dig into this... Thanks! -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
