[Bug 29529] New: Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder: Cannot load Hive, says "path not found".
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29529 Bug #: 29529 Summary: Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder: Cannot load Hive, says "path not found". Product: Wine Version: 1.3.35 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: jthomas97411(a)yahoo.com Classification: Unclassified Simply run Magical Jelly Bean keyfinder in Wine 1.3.35 (or any version before that, I'm pretty sure), and try to load a hive (A hive is a binary file that Windows uses to store registry keys, as opposed to a text file such as a *.reg file containing registry keys in ASCII text.). It won't work. This is using Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder version 2.0.8. Click on tools, and then go to "Load Hive..." An error message pops up saying "Can't load registry hive from: ... Path not found" No terminal output. The goal is to get Keyfinder to load /WINDOWS/System32/config/SOFTWARE. Note: when you tell it to load a hive, it automatically appends system32\config\software to the path you give. So if you tell it to load ~\windows\system32\config, it will look for ~\windows\system32\config\system32\config\software (which doesn't exist, or at least shouldn't). I have tried copying the config folder to the desktop and renaming everything in the path to be all lowercase (the error message prints the path in all lowercase, so I thought that might help it.), doesn't help.

To get past the NOT FOUND error you need to have both "system32\config\software" and a backup in "repair\software". But that will only make it go a bit further and say "privledge not held". I'm not sure what debug channels can be used to debug that. IMO the application is able to work in wine if it gets past that error. The application simply opens the binary file and reads it. -- 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=29529 --- Comment #3 from Jake Thomas <jthomas97411(a)yahoo.com> 2012-01-22 16:57:43 CST --- I upgraded to Wine 1.3.37. Now when I run the Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder, I get a pop-up with the error "Range check error." when the program first starts up. The program window doesn't appear until I click "OK" to the error pop-up. When I click "Microsoft Windows XP" in the left pane, that message appears again. It doesn't show anything in the right pane for clicking "Microsoft Windows XP". In 1.3.36, this was not the case. See the "Windows Info" screenshot: http://appdb.winehq.org/screenshots.php?iAppId=13809&iVersionId= . And Bruno Jesus, where exactly is this repair folder? In Linux, I made a folder named "repair" in System32 and put a copy of SOFTWARE (the hive file) in there. That didn't make the keyfinder any happier. I also tried moving the folder right into the WINDOWS folder. I also put it in the config folder. Same results. I didn't see any repair folders anywhere until I made one. I do have a RegBack folder, though. So did you personally get past the "Hive load failed." message? How exactly did you do it?

You said how to get past the "not found" error, not the "Hive load failed." I'm running 1.3.37 now, and so far I haven't gotten a "not found" error. I'm getting "Hive load failed.", even when I copy the SOFTWARE file to my desktop and then tuck it into a "Windows" folder and then a "System32" folder and then a "config" folder (so that the Windows folder I select is on my desktop in 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.

It doesn't yield "path not found" any more. The error is just replaced with another one: "Hive load failed." Before this bug gets marked as "solved", let's see what other people think about it (i.e, does this count as "solved"?). I would think so. It looks like we have a new separate bug now.

If you have only one of them the program will say path not found, as stated in your first comment. -- 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.

So I think the "path not found" bug is behind us for now.

Note that this isn't any different that the initial error pop-up on launch. On launch, by default, it selects "Microsoft Windows [version]" in the left pane. So it makes sense that it gives the error on launch too. It's just that on launch, the main window doesn't appear until you say "OK" to the pop-up. Whereas later, when you select "Windows" in the left pane, the window is already loaded, so you see both the main window and the error.

I got too excited to test the Magical Jellybean Keyfinder with the new Wine version and didn't notice that I was using an older version of Keyfinder. Good catch, Bruno Jesus. Thanks. Still says "path not found" and I don't get the "Range Check Error." Either. And is successfully gets Windows Information. I really missed that one.

If you run with WINEDEBUG=+file you will notice these lines: trace:file:wine_nt_to_unix_file_name L"\\??\\C:\\as\\windows\\system32\\config\\software" -> "/tmp/LKK/dosdevices/c:/as/windows/system32/config/SOFTWARE" trace:file:wine_nt_to_unix_file_name L"\\??\\C:\\as\\windows\\repair\\software" -> "/tmp/LKK/dosdevices/c:/as/windows/repair/SOFTWARE" The application is now checking for both files. The message should say: Privledge not held.

I had my Windows partition mounted to a folder named "windows". I have been selecting that instead of the Windows folder in the Windows folder. Now that I figured out I was doing that and corrected my method, I get the "privilege not held" error like you.

Then I put a copy of SOFTWARE in the repair folder and put a config folder in the System32 folder. Then I put a copy of SOFTWARE in the config folder. Yeah, didn't work.

I know this because the MiTec Registry Viewer can actually view Windows hive files in Wine (like RegEdit). So if Vitaliy Margolen is saying that Wine doesn't have those APIs, that must be how that program is able to do that. I think I went through about 13 different registry browsing programs before I found one that works in Wine (that can load a hive). Now I know why. Most depend on those APIs. At least I'm guessing that that is the reason. But the MiTec Registry Viewer can't edit the registry. It can only browse it. But if coupled with chntpw (a Linux-native CLI Windows registry editor), you have a powerful pair, because last time I used chntpw, it lacks tree viewing functionality, and is poor as a browser. But the two make a complete unit.
