           Summary: Hero Lab Unhandled Stack Overflow On Certain tabs
           Product: Wine
           Version: 9.22
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

# Issue

Hero lab, specifically the Pathfinder module, produces a stack overflow error
when opening certain tabs. This same error occurrs for both new and existing
character files. The error happens for both Herolab.exe and Herolab64.exe

## Error

wine: unhandled stack overflow at address 7A7711FB (thread 0170), starting
debugger...
0170:err:virtual:virtual_setup_exception stack overflow 1408 byes addr 0x7bd0e3
f1 stack 0xba0a80 (0xba0000-oxba1000-0xca0000)

## Steps to Reproduce Error

1. Install hero lab, and wine version 9.22
2. Open hero lab (wine Herolab64.exe)
3. Open the Pathfinder module
4. Open a new or existing character
5. Click on the 'background' tab.

### Result

Hero Lab hangs for a moment gets an 'hero lab is not responding, do you want to
force quit or wait' window.
Terminal shows the above error.
Waiting will cause the error to happen again, force quit kills the exe.

### Expected Result

Background tab opens and hero lab doesn't hang with a stack overflow error.

# Attempted Resolutions and Other notes

## Resolution 1

I've completely removed wine from my system and tried reinstalling ONLY the dev
version per the offical documentation
(https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/wikis/Debian-Ubuntu)

## More info

Hero Lab desktop version (8.9). This has not been updated in some time.
Hero Lab worked fine on a previous wine version (unsure which, maybe early 9 or
8?) on Ubuntu version 22.04 (64 bit).

OS version: Ubuntu 24.04 (64 bit)
Wine packages installed:
* Wine-devel-amd64
* wine-devel-i386
* wine-devel
* winehq-devel

All 4 of the above are 9.22 version

Attach full output or at least a bigger portion of it for context.

Also, on a completely random note, would you check wine 9.18 ?

I've downgraded wine to 9.18 and confirmed Hero Lab works as expected. See
'error not present in Wine 9.18' for confirmation. I've clicked through each
tab in the hero lab UI for existing and new characters, there's no stack
overflow errors reported.

Let me know if you need more info.

Thanks, 
Wes

OK, to narrow things down, see also if it crashes in 9.19 (though it might be a
slightly different crash).

(I might be a bit butthurt, but I've got a suspect for this crash, even though
yours is significantly different than other instances)

It doesn't appear to crash in 9.19 for both existing and new characters. I'll
try mucking around with it longer to see if the crash happens.

Hero Lab didn't crash at all during testing on 9.19. I tested characters w/
many different configurations, and on 9.22 each would have at least crashed
once.
I can try on 9.2 and 9.21 later, if not this evening then tomorrow.

Thanks
