--- Comment #4 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com 2010-06-05 17:15:52 --- I looked into this a bit more. If you look at Adobe' install log, you'll see: *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Operation complete. Setting status: 7 =*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* ... Calling the custom action code for post-install for payload {08D2E121-7F6A-43EB-97FD-629B44903403} Microsoft_VC90_CRT_x86 [ 43] Sat Jun 05 14:59:55 2010 ERROR Set payload canceled status [ 43] Sat Jun 05 14:59:55 2010 INFO ... Payload {02731921-5711-4E7A-A898-D6BCF0F2A1CD} has an action "install" but no resultState
Seems like it's having some trouble running some custom code after install the vc90 redistributable. The +relay gets huge, and there are a ton of similar payload's, so I'm having trouble figuring out what it's doing here exactly.
I found a few similar problems on Adobe's forums: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/604266 https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FB-26442 https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FB-26538
which seem to indicate that there may be a problem if the install path has spaces, so I tried putting them in ~/.wine/drive_c/cs5, but that didn't help.
I'll attach the adobe log, perhaps it may give a better clue.
