Summary: directx install fails (Civilization 4) with LoadLibraryShim() failed Product: Wine Version: CVS Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-directx AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: basilarchia@gmail.com
I built Wine from git today and tried to install Civ4 to see how far it would get. It got a lot farther than last time I tried! The install screen came up with graphics and it popped into the DirectX installer. That is where it failed to install. I've attached several files:
* Screenshots of the directx failure * The DirectX.log file that the DirectX installer creates * The stdout & stderr from wine (myoutput.wine) * The strace from the DXsetup.exe (myoutput.6192.DXSetup.exe) * The full strace logs for all the other spawned processes (strace.all.tar.bz2)
I set the environment variable WINEDEBUG=+process,+loaddll,+tid,+snoop and then ran "strace -o myoutput -ff wine /media/cdrom/setup.exe &>myoutput.wine".
Once DirectX failed to install, I was able to click "finish" anyway and the Civ4 installer continued to run successfully. I didn't let it finish because all the way, but it looked like it was going to.
