[Bug 16543] New: PopCap: FATAL ERROR: Invalid command line parameter
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16543 Summary: PopCap: FATAL ERROR: Invalid command line parameter Product: Wine Version: 1.1.10 Platform: PC URL: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version &iId=13115 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P3 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: kennybobs(a)o2.co.uk Created an attachment (id=18008) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=18008) Screenshot This is an odd one. Some PopCap games will not load (see the screenshot). The .exe file to start the games extracts another .exe usually named popcapgame1.exe. The original .exe should load the second, but a FATAL ERROR occurs and exits. Running popcapgame1.exe directly works fine. This worked fine for me under Ubuntu Hardy, currently running Ubuntu Intrepid and works fine under Windows XP. The initial .exe has been changed since I was running Hardy, however. Have tried with wine versions 1.0.0, 0.9.57 and 0.9.51 to confirm this is not a regression. -- 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.

I downloaded the game setup files using "free trial" links directly from their official website. Interestingly their official website they don't link to those in appdb. Maybe they redesigned it and the files/packages referenced in appdb are most likely leftovers from earlier versions. Example game bookworm: Appdb links: http://downloads.popcap.com/www/popcap_downloads/BWASetup.exe http://downloads.popcap.com/www/popcap_downloads/BookwormSetup.exe Offical link (1.13): http://downloads.popcap.com/www/popcap_downloads/BookwormSetup-en.exe
From a quick glance, this looks like another heap abuse. I've dissected some heap abuses in other bug reports, unfortunately they are time consuming to analyze properly.
The command line is not supposed to contain anything other than "popcapgame1.exe" with full path to temporarily extracted executable. Windows tolerates much app brain damage, hence the app bug probably doesn't unearth there. In the newer version I downloaded the problem is fixed. The command line for CreateProcess() call is properly built. Actually I don't feel obliged to waste time on now obsolete buggy app versions.

Yes they do.
Maybe they redesigned it and the files/packages referenced in appdb are most likely leftovers from earlier versions.
Not when I go there they are not.
Example game bookworm:
Appdb links:
http://downloads.popcap.com/www/popcap_downloads/BWASetup.exe http://downloads.popcap.com/www/popcap_downloads/BookwormSetup.exe
These are the official links from the official sites. http://www.popcap.com/games/bookworm http://www.popcap.com/games/bookwormadventures The links provided are exactly the same as going in from the "web" side. http://www.popcap.com/games/free/bookworm
Offical link (1.13):
http://downloads.popcap.com/www/popcap_downloads/BookwormSetup-en.exe
I don't know where that comes from but it is clearly a valid link also, and it is the same version as the direct links in the appdb. What browser are you using? I got the same result using Firefox, Opera and IE.
In the newer version I downloaded the problem is fixed.
There is no newer version.
Actually I don't feel obliged to waste time on now obsolete buggy app versions.
The links in the appdb are the current, up-to-date versions of these apps.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16543 --- Comment #15 from Anastasius Focht <focht(a)gmx.net> 2009-04-13 13:19:57 --- Hello, why did you add obfuscation keyword here? There is nothing related here. Just to catch attention is bad manners ... There are working and broken versions of the game - they have even the same version 1.13 but are built at different dates. You can compare both 1.13 install directories for differences (Bookworm.exe). working -> http://downloads.popcap.com/www/popcap_downloads/BookwormSetup-en.exe Build Date: April 24, 2008 broken -> http://downloads.popcap.com/www/popcap_downloads/BookwormSetup.exe Build Date: September 25, 2008 Whoever wrote the broken versions was most likely on drugs. When the wrapper "bookworm.exe" is started, it parses the initial command line and prepares the process create parameters for the child. When started with *full* path *and* a whitespace (or alternatively "" as param) the parent (wrapper) will not pass any parameters to child (popcapgame1.exe) -> child will succeed. In all other cases the father will copy its own complete command line and pass it to child leading to this error (because the child does not expect any non-empty params) This should also fail with Windows. You might test it by opening a console window, cd to program directory and manually call the wrapper with: 1. short path ("bookworm.exe") 2. long path (quotes) 3. long path (quotes) + additional whitespace or "" as single parameter Only 3. should succeed. For Wine you might use empty quote param because trailing whitespace will get stripped, e.g.: --- snip --- $ wine "C:\Program Files\PopCap Games\Bookworm Deluxe\Bookworm.exe" "" --- snip --- Anyway .. there is nothing to fix for Wine here. It's just horribly broken software.

That leaves the problem most likely to shellexecute(). Can you do the following in your Windows (with the game already installed): 1) Download the "Process Explorer" tool from: http://technet.microsoft.com/de-de/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx (former infamous sysinternals) 2) Start the game wrapper as usual, using Explorer (don't start the real game yet by clicking on button) (I tested the following in Wine, should be similar in Windows) 3) Start "Process Explorer" tool, find the process, select/highlight it. 4) Right click, do "properties", select "image" tab if not already selected 5) Extend the "command line" field until _everything_ is visible. 6) Select/mark the whole command line edit field with mouse and be sure you select everything (blue) 7) Make a screenshot and/or tell me if there are any additional command line arguments/trailing characters (whitespace, quotes) after image path and attach to this bug report.

Hello Then this looks like a duplicate of bug 13617. Applying the linked patch[1] and using wine start /Unix Bookworm.exe makes the program work. the /Unix flag is supposed to implement the quirks observed when starting processes as they would be through explorer.exe on Windows as some programmers rely on the always quoted commandline that explorer adds and now also the trailing whitespace. 1. http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2008-June/055520.html -- 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 one from the URL field obviously, it exhibits the problem unless I patch start /Unix to add an additional space. ef9e73c9a3ad21376b8f131e011deee4c423e478 BookwormSetup.exe -- 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=16543 --- Comment #34 from Anastasius Focht <focht(a)gmx.net> 2009-05-10 09:41:29 --- Hello, what's the point of this discussion now? I don't see the need of introducing some start.exe /unix hack. It's ShellExecute() that needs to be fixed to match Windows behaviour. For the time being, the versions of the game that depend on trailing space can be started anyway from console or shortcut by adding a single "" (empty quotes) parameter to command line. Just add a hint to appdb and all is fine.

Hello,

Yes sorry, I was just about to post that it does look like the additional space comes from ShellExecuteEx rather than explorer as I earlier thought, it also looks like the other bug is that ShellExecuteEx quotes the first argument of the commandline unconditionally, ie if there is any space to be escaped or not and Wine doesn't quote at all. -- 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.
