--- Comment #4 from GyB gyebro69@gmail.com 2010-09-13 10:50:16 CDT --- Created an attachment (id=30728) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=30728) 7zipped +relay,+seh,+tid log (uncompressed 57 MB)
This is still an issue in the current git (wine-1.3.2-157-g2c4b081).
I think this is a privilege issue, see the line in attachment #28128: 'err:winediag:IcmpCreateFile Failed to use ICMP (network ping), this requires special permissions.'
If you look inside the attached +relay log, you can see an exception occurs right after these calls:
001b:Call KERNEL32.GetProcAddress(28a90000,01b50b4c "IcmpSendEcho") ret=0040d643 001b:Ret KERNEL32.GetProcAddress() retval=6a99cdb8 ret=0040d643 001b:Call iphlpapi.IcmpCreateFile() ret=00671bce 001b:err:winediag:IcmpCreateFile Failed to use ICMP (network ping), this requires special permissions. 001b:Ret iphlpapi.IcmpCreateFile() retval=ffffffff ret=00671bce 001b:Call KERNEL32.RaiseException(0eedfade,00000001,00000007,0032f99c) ret=00671bee 001b:trace:seh:raise_exception code=eedfade flags=1 addr=0x7b8378c7 ip=7b8378c7 tid=001b
This is somewhat similar to bug #8332.
As a side note: the application starts up correctly if you run it as root (not recommended).
