Bug #: 35063 Summary: InstallShield crashes when installing Peachtree Pro Accounting 2007 "unable to create InstallDriver instance" Product: Wine Version: 1.7.7 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ole32 AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: rclocher3@yahoo.com Classification: Unclassified
Created attachment 46763 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=46763 "+ole,+rpc,+storage,+variant" log for "Unable to create InstallDriver instance" error (not "1158:" error)
Greetings oh amazing Wine developers and maintainers,
I've been trying to install Peachtree Pro Accounting 2007, but I get various errors. Sometimes when I try to run the installer a window pops up and a progress bar starts chugging before it errors out with a popup message saying "Unable to create InstallDriver instance, Return code: -2147221164". Other times an InstallShield popup that says "1158:" appears immediately. In both cases I start with a fresh prefix. It seems like I get the "Unable to create InstallDriver instance" error if I haven't tried the installation recently, otherwise I get the "1158:" error, even if I've rebooted lately.
If I get the "Unable to create InstallDriver instance" error then I get the following stderr messages in the console:
err:ole:create_server class {e9513610-f218-4dda-b954-2c7e6ba7cabb} not registered err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {e9513610-f218-4dda-b954-2c7e6ba7cabb} could be created for context 0x4
If I get the "1158:" error there are no stderr messages.
I looked at the error log, and I saw stuff for ole32, oleaut32, and rpc; I guessed that this is an ole32 bug, but you'd know better than I would.
I'd like to take a moment to say thanks for Wine, I'm always amazed at the fact that it can emulate Windows in Linux. My hat's off to you people who can reverse-engineer DCOM and such. What fantastic complexity!
