wine binary loader problem - incorrect code at entry point

[Mike McCormack]

Hi,

Using the latest CVS, i'm trying to run the Adobe acrobat installer
program (ar500enu.exe) and it crashes without doing anything at all.

i have traced the problem to bad code at the program's entry point...
which presumably means that the wrong piece of the program was mmapped
into memory.

i have run this program before using wine, (not recently though) and
it has worked. Other programs (such as the netscape installer) at
least start up and get going before crashing in a similar way.

from the debugger:

0x0040c110 (<Debugged process>.EntryPoint in <Debugged process>): decl
0x0(%edi)


Using Sang Cho's disassembler i get:

//******************** Program Entry Point ********
