We at Notation Software (www.notation.com) use Wine since 3 years on multiple platforms (thanks to the community). Our software is unchanged since Nov. 22nd, 2016.
With Wine 2.22 our software does not install anymore.
But for all previous Wine versions which we have used so far (from Wine 1.7.25 to Wine 2.11) all had worked fine. Using the stable version Wine 2.0.3 all is OK, as well.
Therefore I conclude that with a change made between Wine 2.12 and Wine 2.21 (on the staging version the installation also fails) an issue was created.
Here are some details and how to reproduce the blocking situation: ------------------------------------------------------------------ (1)download the Composer trial version from http://www.notation.com/Download.php (2)installation on Wine-2.22 fails but (3)installation on the stable Wine-2.0.3 works fine.
Our software uses Custom Action "Install" and "Commit". We have done a detailed tracing through the Install custom action. All works fine here. The Install custom action return 0.
But it looks that after the Install custom action a fatal error happens and the installation is terminated.
We use our software for all Windows version (XP through 10) and have ~500 installation per day mostly on Windows. All work fine.
In the attached zip-file there are two logs
- the good one from Wine-2.0.3: - the failure from Wine-2.22:
We have adviced our customers to use the stable Wine version.
I hope that the issue can be sorted out before these changes will be moved into a next stable version.
Thanks
