Welcome in club "I am using Linux and I can't save on a directory not created for/by the wine user" (probably your fat directory belongs to root (/irony))

Sure... I can create a new directory in Total Commander on FAT32 partition, I can copy file from one directory to another, I can delete files from this partition, but I can't install stupid game/program because installer isn't working fine... Yes... partition belongs to root but other groups HAVE a read,write,execute permissions... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

The directory is owned by root, even if you have the full permission. YOU can save on a FAT because you are saving without using wine. If an installation source wants to install something there, it can only be through Wine and if you are not root the ID on wine will be the one of the user. Now wine has a check and if user ID != owner of the directory (regardless of permission), wine is throwing a fatal error and the saving fails. Now I have series of functions (now) systematically crashing when they try to save a new temp file in a directory owned by root. For your reference, you can call it "directory check" and as per 0.9.43 I can not even revert it anymore *arrggh*. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

O.9.53 I mean.

Total Commander is running under Wine and in TC I can do everything (without replace one file with another one - TC crashed when I try to do this. I must delete replaced file first) on FAT32 partitions. Most of installers works fine, but some not. For example I can install "Millenium Race" but Operation Flashpoint Resistance crashed. I think, the bug shows when installer try create a file which exist. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Yesterday's patch seems to help but you can't rely on this for long. Other solution (even if some will argue...) is to make the install as root until you get your file on the FAT partition and use as user. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

You are right. I can install these apps/games only as root. Thanks for help :) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Are you able to create files and directories, write to files as an ordinary user in Linux applications to your FAT partition? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
