[Bug 37789] New: cmd.exe /c cannot handle "(" and ")" characters in a full script path name
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37789 Bug ID: 37789 Summary: cmd.exe /c cannot handle "(" and ")" characters in a full script path name Product: Wine Version: 1.7.33 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: cmd Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: abolte(a)systemsaviour.com Distribution: --- Created attachment 50334 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=50334 Various cmd executions discussed in the report using WINEDEBUG='+cmd'. Far Cry 4 (which requires at least a 64-bit Windows 7 prefix) fails to call a bash script on launch: Can't recognise 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\games\Far Cry 4\Support\Software\GEFirewall.bat /silent' as an internal or external command, or batch script. Sure enough, calling it manually (even without the /silent argument) results in the same error: $ wine cmd.exe /c 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\games\Far Cry 4\Support\Software\GEFirewall.bat' Can't recognise 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\games\Far Cry 4\Support\Software\GEFirewall.bat' as an internal or external command, or batch script. Suspicious of the ( and ) characters in the URL, I tried copying the GEFirewall.bat to the path 'C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\games\Far Cry 4\Support\Software\' (which doesn't normally exist but I manually created it). $ wine cmd.exe /c 'C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\games\Far Cry 4\Support\Software\GEFirewall.bat' fixme:netsh:wmain stub: L"netsh" L"firewall" L"add" L"allowedprogram" L"C:\\Program Files\\Ubisoft\\Ubisoft Game Launcher\\games\\Far Cry 4\\Support\\Software\\..\\..\\bin\\FarCry4.exe" L"FarCry4" L"ENABLE" fixme:netsh:wmain stub: L"netsh" L"firewall" L"add" L"allowedprogram" L"C:\\Program Files\\Ubisoft\\Ubisoft Game Launcher\\games\\Far Cry 4\\Support\\Software\\..\\..\\bin\\IGE_WPF64.exe" L"FarCry4-IGE" L"ENABLE" The script ran perfectly. One more test to confirm my sanity: $ wine explorer.exe 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\games\Far Cry 4\Support\Software' This opened the directory in explorer fine. Only cmd.exe /c ... seems to show this issue. -- 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.

As seen from logs, the parsing is broken when the install path contains parenthesis, such as "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\foobar". Everything else is just follow-up errors. You can work around by installing in 32-bit WINEPREFIX ('WINEARCH=win32' -> "C:\\Program Files\\foobar"). You can inspect log files such as 'postinstall.bat.done' after install in app directory. For testing the actual installation I found this: https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/30982/why-is-qgis-not-launching --- snip --- $ wine "c:\Program Files\Quantum GIS Lisboa\bin\nircmd.exe" exec hide "c:\Program Files\Quantum GIS Lisboa\bin\qgis.bat" --- snip --- The app starts (splash screen is briefly shown) and then terminates which is another cmd bug (for loop processing, bug 32449).

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37789 --- Comment #10 from Mykola Mykhno <klimmihno5+wine+bugzilla@gmail.com> --- Comment on attachment 80771 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=80771 Add a second set of illegal characters for the quotes strip to add support for parentheses in path or file names. This bug relates to the rules for stripping quotes. Prior to XP Professional x64 Edition, logic was that special characters such as: &,<>,()@^ were forbidden in quotes. Quotes must be stripped if any of these characters appear in a parameter. This logic is documented in the cmd.exe documentation at MSDN. However, after XP Professional x64 Edition, Microsoft added the "Program Files (x86)" directory, and it seems like they removed parentheses from the list of forbidden characters in quotes. The documentation doesn't mention it. To check this hypothesis, I have checked that XP Professional SP 2 x32 bit strips quotes when it finds parentheses in a parameter passed with /C, and XP Professional x64 Edition and all versions after it, whether 32 or 64 bit, preserve quotation marks when parentheses are in a parameter. Also, I checked that XP Professional x64 Edition is based already on NT 5.2, same with Windows Server 2003. So, the solution is basically to add a condition at https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/blob/master/programs/cmd/wcmdmain.c#L4... that will check the version. If the version is prior to 5.2, then use the list of special characters with parentheses. If the version is greater than 5.2, then use the list without parentheses. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
