[Bug 35277] New: Sims3Launcher.exe doesn't start reliable
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35277 Bug ID: 35277 Summary: Sims3Launcher.exe doesn't start reliable Product: Wine Version: 1.7.9 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: wine(a)thschuetz.de Classification: Unclassified Since I have updated to wine 1.7.9 the Sims3Launcher.exe of "The Sims 3" shows a strange behaviour: I am using Sims 3 through Steam and I have a simple bash-script to start it, just a "cd" to the right directory and a "wine" with the right prefix, etc. Normally I start the script through a Sims3.desktop-file. Yes, I know, I am lazy… After installing wine 1.7.9 steam starts, ask me if I want to play "Sims 3" or view the support informations, installs prerequisites - and stops! At this time the launcher should start. I modified the script so the Sims3Launcher.exe starts directly (that's possible, because the copy-protection is on the real game executable) but the launcher does not start. If I use the script from a terminal emulator, there is normally no problem with wine 1.7.9! "Normally" means it sometimes does not start from terminal emulator too. All this is the behaviour after a fresh boot! If the start of the launcher fails one time, I have to logout and login again (no reboot needed), after that I can start the launcher again from a terminal emulator. It took quite some time to find out this behaviour, but this should be the best description I could give to you. I tried to make a regression but failed. Regression testing with a 32-bit-wine in a 64-bit-linux is too hard for me, sorry. :-( Ah, one more info: Once the start failed from a terminal I had a look at the messages, there are only 2 lines and those appear at a working start too! So no messages I can provide. The launcher silently just does not start. Downgrading to wine 1.7.8 solved the problem. If I can provide any more informations, just ask. Sorry again for no regression test. -- 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 launcher requires .Net to be installed, and wine-mono is not compatable due to the launcher requiring embedded browser functionality. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
