https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43349 Bug ID: 43349 Summary: Blizzard App Fails to Recognize Password Upon Switching Regions Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: siren(a)sirenwatcher.com Distribution: --- Specs: Wine 2.4 Staging [Win 7] Issue: Blizzard App Fails to Recognize Password Upon Switching Regions. The default "password" area isn't recognised when typed into. There is an override in place for US logins but not for EU logins. Images: [with override under US] imgur.com/zZHUtPN [failing to override for EU] imgur.com/h6z3IWQ Tried fixes: > Changing the Launcher.db codes for both WoW and Blizz App to enEU from enUS to see if the override is just for the defaulted region. Does load the launcher by default as "europe", though still does not give the override. > Typing in the password like 100 times to see if the override was something that proc'd from failed attempts on US. Hasn't worked. When occured: The Blizzard App ran an update about a week or so ago, it bugged out around this time. It threw all users of the application "out" of being signed in. Both on US and EU after the update. Upon signing back in I received this error, I assume from a GUI override update. A new game has been introduced to the application, which is not directly linked to Blizzard Entertainment, so I assume the integration of the new Destiny PC players accounts, put an issue in the coding for Wine under EU? Currently, using the Blizzard App on US works fine. Though after a week of trying, waiting to see if it just fixed itself, I still cannot use it to sign into the EU interface. I can still sign onto my EU WoW account through the US interface. So there is no rush, its just a minor hindrance. Does not affect gameplay of any of Blizzard's games. Just stops me talking to my EU friends when I am signed onto US WoW. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46836 Bug ID: 46836 Summary: Battle.Net UI freezes when downloading big games after a period of time Product: Wine Version: 4.3 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: sashok.olen(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- Best way to reproduce it: 1. Install Battle.Net and arial font using winetricks 2. Log in and start installation of some big game, for example, WoW (has a free trial) After some time (for me it was 10-15 minutes) the UI becomes frozen (nothing moves) and completely unresponsive. However, it seems to still continue working and downloading things, and restarting it helps to resolve it. When this happens, I don't seem anything standout-ish pop in the terminal log. Attached a log with during recording of which the bug occured. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53697 Bug ID: 53697 Summary: Battle.net Agent.8009/Agent.exe not working (installing Battle.net client and updating games) (2022-09-17) Product: Wine Version: 7.17 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: kolAflash(a)kolahilft.de Distribution: --- Created attachment 73102 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=73102 STDOUT/STDERR log (Battle.net client installation) At about 2022-09-17 Blizzard released a new Agent.8009\Agent.exe (5.346.640 bytes) replacing the previous Agent.7984\Agent.exe (5.549.912 bytes) It's is usually placed in one of these folders: WINE C: ProgramData/Battle.net/Agent/ WINE C: users/Public/Application Data/Battle.net/Agent/ Note: This is NOT about the other file named "Agent.exe" (about 595.792 bytes) in the "Agent" folder above. DETAILS With the new Agent.8009/Agent.exe the Battle.net client isn't able to install. wine-7.17 and wine-staging-7.17: And an already installed Battle.net isn't able to update games. The progress is just stuck at 0%. It looks like Agent.exe is continuously crashing and being restarted in background. wine-7.17: When installing Battle.net with you get an hard error "BLZBNTAGT000008FC". wine-staging-7.17: The progress is just stuck at 0%. (similar to when updating games) REPRODUCTION OS: Debian-11 1. Download Battle.net client setup. https://eu.battle.net/download/getInstaller?os=win&installer=Battle.net-Set… https://www.battle.net/download/getInstallerForGame?os=win&gameProgram=BATT… Currently: 4.838.352 bytes 2. Run Battle.net-Setup.exe in a new Wine prefix and click trough the update process. 3. wine-7.17: You get the error "BLZBNTAGT000008FC". wine-staging-7.17: The installation process is stuck at "Installing Battle.net... (0%)". WORKAROUNDS Updating games: Replace Agent.exe in "Agent.8009\" folder with old "Agent.7984\Agent.exe". Installing Battle.net with wine-staging-7.17: Just replace the file while the installing process is being stuck. Afterwards the installation should automatically continue. Installing Battle.net with wine-7.17: DIFFICULT -> try to use wine-staging-7.17 instead! Run Battle.net-Setup.exe once until you get the "BLZBNTAGT000008FC" error. Then close the setup and place Agent.exe version 7984 in that folder an protect it from being overwritten. sudo chattr +i /path/to/Agent.8009/ (may only work on ext4 filesystems) Important: Use "chattr" on the folder "Agent.8009", not on the "Agent.exe" file. The run the Battle.net setup again. You won't be able to delete the "Agent.8009" folder until you run the reverse command sudo chattr -i /path/to/Agent.8009/ SEE ALSO https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/xgb5fx/problems_with_battlen… https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/blizzard/t/last-update-completely-breaks-… -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 57092] New: Battle.net Launcher has trouble with winbind and malloc

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57092 Bug ID: 57092 Summary: Battle.net Launcher has trouble with winbind and malloc Product: Wine Version: 5.0.3 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: version Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: jepetersen(a)utexas.edu Distribution: --- Created attachment 76970 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=76970 backtrace file I thought I'd launch my battle.net version of d3 resurrected for the new ladder, since Sony temp banned my PSN account for no reason whatsoever. These companies don't understand that people actually want to use the products they pay for. I own it on two different platforms, and I can't play it on either... This country is outrageously frustrating. People just want to leave nowadays. The problem is that when you launch the launcher, the login screen pops up, but the button to submit your login information is bugged out. At first, it looked like a winbind error, but then I installed winbind/samba, and now it's some sort of malloc error. The backtrace is attached. -- 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.

[Bug 50064] New: A transparent Agent.exe window is shown when Battle.Net launches
by WineHQ Bugzilla June 9, 2026

June 9, 2026

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50064 Bug ID: 50064 Summary: A transparent Agent.exe window is shown when Battle.Net launches Product: Wine-staging Version: 5.20 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: sashok.olen(a)gmail.com CC: leslie_alistair(a)hotmail.com, z.figura12(a)gmail.com Regression SHA1: 3cea972271b4529e332c75b06f902c80e7de1798 Distribution: ArchLinux Since 3cea972271b4529e332c75b06f902c80e7de1798 (Rebase against f4a66ad257df4605e73dfea792eec55a70a04e84) and with all later staging commits, including 5.20 release, when you launch Battle.Net (a client for Blizzard games), a transparent Agent.exe is shown. Normally, there shouldn't be any window shown for Agent.exe at all. With staging commit b49e8743866224df57eb1032b6c63c999b28c808 and older, the issue cannot be reproduced. Mainline wine (5.20) doesn't have this issue, and 8d04884c1f6aa6b21435130e42978fdeac06df55 (Updated winex11.drv-Query_server_position patchset …), which was supposed to fix this, had no effect. More than that, using a build with that patchset disabled did not get rid of the issue. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 55979] New: Blizzard Battle.net Launcher: New Version Released On 11/30/2023 Hangs During Installation

Also, I know the maintainers of Bugzilla encourage reporting only one problem per bug. That being said, the exact same time this started happening, my existing Wine prefix for Battle.net (and my Battle.net games) caused thread crashes when opening Battle.net after installing yesterday's update. The update was installed from within the Battle.net client by clicking the green icon to install the update. Prior to this update released yesterday on November 30, 2023, Battle.net and the games were running flawlessly. Because I can only add a single attachment, the Pastebin links below will give more detail on the related issue of thread crashes described above: Existing prefix terminal output when the thread crash occurs: https://pastebin.com/4UwxTsEP Here is my system information: https://pastebin.com/v3MVemgg Was able to save a crash report for the thread crash issue: https://pastebin.com/mYX68NrX -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

[Bug 58830] New: Battle.net installer occasionally hangs with ntsync enabled
by WineHQ Bugzilla June 9, 2026

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58830 Bug ID: 58830 Summary: Battle.net installer occasionally hangs with ntsync enabled Product: Wine Version: 10.16 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ntdll Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: marc_aurel(a)me.com Distribution: --- Installing the official Battle.net 32-bit installer (https://us.battle.net/download/getInstaller?os=win&installer=Battle.net-Set…) does hang while downloading (a bit inconsistent depending on the machine, but reproduces about 1/5 of the time). In my testing, this only happens with ntsync, and interesting logging channels (like +winsock,+sync,+server) make the bug basically non-reproducible. As does a small NtDelayExecution of 1 microsecond in ws2_32 select(). There is another CEF crash right after the install succeeded; however, this is independent of this bug. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
