[Bug 27911] New: Baldurs Gate II can't save a game if installed on ext4 partition due to a capital letter in folder name
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27911 Summary: Baldurs Gate II can't save a game if installed on ext4 partition due to a capital letter in folder name Product: Wine Version: 1.3.24 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: riklaunim(a)gmail.com I've checked this on: Wine 1.3.24 - Gentoo x86_64 on laptop 1 Wine 1.3.15 and 1.2.2 - LinuMint 64 on laptop 2 If I install the game (BG 2 with TOB and patches in one) and start new game I won't be able to save it - the game will show a message box stating that it couldn't save the game (it creates the folder for saved game and few files but not all). Wine doesn't print any debug. Autosave on new game usually succeeds. The game has a "Save" folder for saved games. I've created also "save" (and "SAVE"). It solved the problem as everything got saved in "save" folder. If installed on ext3 - no problem (also BG1 works without problems on ext4). -- 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.

Any update on this? I've created the folders as you did - it doesn't work for me. I will try to install it on ext3 then... Btw, I see no additional kernel messages in my logs.

If I chmod them again, and run the game it starts to work (usually). Can't get a clear path for the solution. -- 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=27911 --- Comment #5 from thinred(a)o2.pl 2011-09-14 13:31:56 CDT --- Ok. It works. You have to create both 'save' and 'SAVE' directories. As Piotr said it actually saves in 'save'. I guess this is CaSe-SeNsItIvE problem in Linux vs Windows. I didn't try it on ext3 but if it really does not happen on ext3 then it is really weird. Anyway, thank you Piotr for the unobvious fix! Oh, and my setup: OS: Ubuntu 11.04, 2.6.38-11-generic x86_64 (from standard packages) Wine: wine-1.3.15 (from standard packages) If I will have some will and time I may try to trace the problem further.

I still cannot save... and I don't know why it worked before (I've tried chmoding to 777 too). Therefore I will try to resolve it. It drives me mad - I've created a new character like 10 times now...

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27911 --- Comment #8 from Tomek <thinred(a)o2.pl> 2011-09-14 14:32:04 CDT --- Looking at basic differences between ext3 and ext4 I remember that 'noatime' option is used by default for ext4 in many distros (on Ubuntu anyway). I think that ext3 generally has 'atime' on. So I've tried this (before starting BG2): sudo mount -o remount,atime / And it actually works for me (so far). Piotr - if you want and have time at the same time, you could try this. I will try to play now to see if it works in a long run.

The save fails after you change a location (it works in the starting location). I've tried various folders, remounting "home" partition: /dev/sda6 on /home/piotr type ext4 (rw,discard,errors=remount-ro,commit=0) Or even putting the game withing an ext3 filesystem in a file - did not solve the problem. -- 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.
