[Bug 38803] New: wine fails with the ElsterFormular installer, the vanilla wine version installs properly
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38803 Bug ID: 38803 Summary: wine fails with the ElsterFormular installer, the vanilla wine version installs properly Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: joachim.backes(a)rhrk.uni-kl.de Distribution: --- I have the following problem with Fedora-22 wine: Downloading the installer for the german tax program (https://download.elster.de/download/2011/ElsterFormular-16.1.20150424p.exe) and then starting the exec fails with the actual Fedora 22 wine version: Getting a popup with an error message: "Installer payload initialization failed. This is likely due to an incomplete or corrupt download file" But the message isn't correct: The installer exec proceeds under Win7, or with the actual Wine Vanilla Version 1.7.43 (downloaded from winehq.org). I filed a fedora bugzilla (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1224490). Today I got the advice from the fedora/RedHat bugzilla team to register this bug at wine-stating bugilla. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

A run with 'BITROCKDEBUG=1' environment variable set should give more details. Looking at the trace log in staging bug tracker it seems you have an unusal mountpoint/symbolic link setup. The app traverses from the root directory (drive 'Z:') and finds the payload (itself) again but now in seemingly entirely different path which confuses it (Tcl virtual filesystem). "Z:/home/backes/Desktop/DL/ElsterFormular-16.1.20150424p.exe/<vfs>" vs. "Z:/disk2/home/backes/Downloads//ElsterFormular-16.1.20150424p.exe/<vfs>" (find -> sort order!) I wouldn't be surprised if there were more apps/games/installers not working in the past due to your broken setup. Anyway, resolving 'invalid' here. $ sha1sum ElsterFormular-16.1.20150424p.exe cd903affaac75a25120f66a923b63c6b4567c3fd ElsterFormular-16.1.20150424p.exe $ du -sh ElsterFormular-16.1.20150424p.exe 101M ElsterFormular-16.1.20150424p.exe $ wine --version wine-1.7.45-195-gda5151f Regards -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38803 --- Comment #3 from JB <joachim.backes(a)rhrk.uni-kl.de> --- I could solve the problem: Reason: 1. /home was a symlink to /disk2/home 2. ~/Desktop/DL was a symlink to /home/backes/downloads, and /home/backes/downloads was mounted on /dev/sdc6 I reconfigured my filesystem so /home now is directly mounted /dev/dev/sdb1, and /dev/sdc6 is monted to /downloads, and the links ~/Desktop/DL now points directly to /downloads. After this reconfiguration, the installer ElsterFormular-16.1.20150424p.exe runs flawlessly. BTW: Obviously has problems to relove symlinks properly :-( Thanks for your support.
