Bug ID: 38803 Summary: wine fails with the ElsterFormular installer, the vanilla wine version installs properly Product: Wine Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: joachim.backes@rhrk.uni-kl.de Distribution: ---
I have the following problem with Fedora-22 wine:
Downloading the installer for the german tax program (https://download.elster.de/download/2011/ElsterFormular-16.1.20150424p.exe) and then starting the exec fails with the actual Fedora 22 wine version: Getting a popup with an error message: "Installer payload initialization failed. This is likely due to an incomplete or corrupt download file"
But the message isn't correct: The installer exec proceeds under Win7, or with the actual Wine Vanilla Version 1.7.43 (downloaded from winehq.org).
I filed a fedora bugzilla (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1224490).
Today I got the advice from the fedora/RedHat bugzilla team to register this bug at wine-stating bugilla.
