Hello,

revisiting.
Yes, that app still unearths deficencies in .NET Framework 1.1 installation.
The app crashes for me at startup.
Wine: GIT (1.1.7+)
App: 6b9bc1db7994f2664c1f1935df95f0b502277cb4 rufzxp_fw1_1_setup_1_1_1.exe

If it really worked for you earlier then this might be a regression in msi.

One prime example is: "Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll" assembly.
The app expects this assembly in GAC (otherwise it won't run).

It gets installed to:
"C:\\windows\\Microsoft.NET\\Framework\\v1.1.4322\\GAC\\Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll"
- which is correct as _temporary_ location before final phase.
Windows installer always employs 2-step transactional process for CLR
assemblies.
At the end this assembly should get published/installed to:
"C:\\WINDOWS\\assembly\\GAC\\Microsoft.VisualBasic\\7.0.5000.0__b03f5f7f11d50a3a\\Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll"

install_assembly() is never called for Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll
(VB7_Runtime_GAC_____X86.3643236F_FC70_11D3_A536_0090278A1BB8).

Either regression or there are still missing bits in
msi/ACTION_MsiPublishAssemblies.

So what should we do with this bug?
The bug title doesn't reflect the current problem.
Either change the title to something more matching or close this one and open a
new one copying the information there.

As side note: While investigating this, I encountered that race condition other
people occasionally reported but no one including me took it for real...
Google for: StopDarwinService() - Call to ControlService() failed! winehq

Only happens with winetricks dotnet11 (or some other installer which tries to
interact with msi server service) when WINEPREFIX is being newly created.
Looks like there is a SCM race between msi service shutdown - initiated when
wineboot exits - and the app executed immediately thereafter which tries to
query/control the service.

I added a note to appdb entry, though this might also apply to other stuff.

As quickfix, you might want to put a small sleep (3-5 secs) before spawning the
installer in winetricks to make sure msi service shutdown is finished after
wineboot exited.

Regards
