--- Comment #5 from Scott shagooserver@gmail.com --- Update to this bug under Version 4.0RC2.
Please note this program requires an old version of wine to run (jre-6u-45). Now what is happening is the program is being installed in one Wine prefix but is looking for the java runtime in another prefix.
So for example I install the program and java in .winetest it will not run even with a java path in environmental variables.
The program will only run if java is installed in the default .wine prefix. In addition to this the windows program authorisation registry entry is stored in the default .wine prefix even if the program starts from the .winetest prefix. The other files installed by the installer are placed in the correct wine prefix, that being .winetest.
If the program is installed in the default .wine prefix it will start but not normally: 1/ No program start icon is created (installation). 2/ When run for the first time a check should be run to verify that a serial number has been input and if not, a serial number input window should pop-up, this does not happen. Instead the program just hangs. 3/ After manually starting the authorisation program I can input the serial number and the program will work largely as expected.
This behaviour occurs on 2 PCs that I have.
So the outstanding issues are: 1/ Why can the program not be "normally" installed in a wine prefix other than the default .wine prefix. 2/ Why is the program start icon not generated. 3/ Why does the authorisation program not not work as expected.
