[Bug 17485] New: Non-windows apps generate an inappropriate dialog
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17485 Summary: Non-windows apps generate an inappropriate dialog Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: PC-x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: user32 AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: vperetokin(a)gmail.com When you tell wine to run a non-windows app, it pops ups up an error dialog that says "Success". Not only does this make no sense to a non-technical user, it is also amusing to technical ones. It should instead say "This doesn't appear to be a Windows application." or something similar. -- 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=17485 --- Comment #2 from Austin English <austinenglish(a)gmail.com> 2009-02-20 17:08:20 --- I'm not sure this is a wine bug. I've noticed this recently, e.g., when downloading/opening certain file extensions in Firefox (Linux). .bin comes to mind. It attempts to open it in wine, and fails. It may be binfmt-misc that's doing so though... -- 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.

The firefox usage of the file is buggy, but Wine is at issue here too for giving such a cryptic/laughable dialog. -- 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.

Can you give a consistent way to reproduce?
It is consistent with MPQEdit at least. - Download MPQEdit from http://www.zezula.net/download/mpqediten32.zip - Open any MPQ archive. I've attached a small one. Use the option "Use internal listfile from the MPQ", the others don't matter. - Double-click on the file "prepatch.lst". It should extract and give the "Success" dialog. It seems it's supposed to open it (?). At least, the .exe in this archive opens with wine. I also get "Access Denied" when trying to open the files "(attributes)" or "(listfile)" - probably because of the parentheses. -- 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=17485 --- Comment #7 from Vincent Povirk <madewokherd(a)gmail.com> 2009-02-21 19:44:18 --- This is probably due to a fairly recent change to ShellExecuteEx to support error dialogs as on Windows. The function uses the return value, instead of GetLastError(), to report certain types of errors, and I was too lazy to account for those. Should be an easy fix. In previous versions, SEE would have failed silently. -- 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.

This should be fixed in Wine 1.1.16.
Confirmed.
