Bug #: 31417 Summary: Wine do not write events in logfiles for standalone games servers Product: Wine Version: 1.5.10 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: fabnay@hotmail.com Classification: Unclassified
i m using wine 1.5.10 (i have tested also v1.4-->1.5.8 ) on a dedicated server running on Debian Squeeze 64bits. I start servers of games like brink, mw3, Sev2 (these games can be loaded freely via the steam tool). Everything is working good. Servers are running and we can play multiplayer without trouble. But the logs of games are always empty.
For example with SEv2 : When the game start a file called "connection_log_PORT.txt" is created and writed (all is ok here) and a second called "dedicated_console.txt" is empty. Normally this second file should show all actions on server. It is not the case.
I started the programm with this option too "&> log.txt". The file is created but it is empty.
I tried also to start the game with Wine under vnc. The game start and console show all events but they are not writen inside file called "dedicated_console.txt".
We tried on 2 dedicated servers with the same result. The problem seems comin from Wine which do not write on these kind of files.
For these games i have installed xvfb-run and winetricks
