Summary: World of Warcraft Battle Chest dvd-install fails with "The folder <temporary data> could not be created." Product: Wine Version: 1.1.43 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Keywords: Installer Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dank@kegel.com
This happens when installing from a mounted .iso, but not when installing from a directory you copy from the mounted .iso or when installing from a real dvd.
Don't know if it's a bug in the installer, or an intended feature in the installer, or a bug in wine, but it's annoying enough that I figured I'd record a bug for it. I'll attach +relay,+file logs of the three cases up to either the error message or the installer splash.
