Created an attachment (id=35256) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=35256) "/h" is missing from the path

Wine 1.3.4

From Krusader, when I right click and "open with" "notepad" or "wine notepad",

I get a popup complaining about a bad path. The problem being that the first two letters of the path are missing. I do not have this problem with Linux programs and Krusader. Please see the attachment. The missing letter are "/h" as in /home/CDs/..."

--- Comment #1 from Andrew Nguyen arethusa26@gmail.com 2011-06-23 23:03:06 CDT --- Notepad is really supposed to receive a Windows path in the command line, as it's interpreting the slash and character at the start of the Unix path as an option. I notice that notepad on XP doesn't munch option characters that it doesn't recognize, so I suppose there technically is a bug here.

--- Comment #6 from Todd Chester ToddAndMargo@zoho.com --- Hi Rosanna,

Interesting. This was reported on 2011-06-23. Over four years ago. Glad you guys are finally looking into it.

Scientific Linux 7.1 $ uname -r 3.10.0-229.11.1.el7.x86_64

Wine 1.7.49

and Krusader 2.4.0-beta3, "Open With, Notepad" on a file called: /home/CDs/Keepers/Linux/perl/perl.die.ip.example.txt

My message log (/var/log/messages) gives:

Sep 4 11:47:01 localhost /etc/gdm/Xsession: fixme:exec:SHELL_execute flags ignored: 0x00000100

Sep 4 11:47:01 localhost /etc/gdm/Xsession: err:exec:SHELL_ExecuteW cannot return to directory L"unix\home\CDs\Keepers\Linux\perl"

Yes, sorry, I mistyped; that was what I was looking for.

Yours looks pretty much the same as mine, except for the WINEPREFIX of course. I assume /home/todd/.wine.smartsuite is a valid path.

It was at one time. When I was using Scientific Linux 6.7, I had several wine prefixes. Now I am on Scientific Linux 7.1 and only have one prefix. So, I fixed it. No symptom change.

Well, no symptom change until I tried it a second time. Now it is working.

I will go over all my .desktops and correcting the prefix.

--- Comment #12 from Rosanne DiMesio dimesio@earthlink.net --- You did get a popup error message, and it's the one notepad gives me when I try to use it to open a file from the command line using the wrong syntax. There is a bug, and it's what's described in comment 1: notepad shouldn't eat option characters it doesn't recognize.

The problem can be reproduced on the command line by running either of these commands:

wine start notepad /path/to/file.txt wine notepad /path/to/file.txt

If you change the paths in the commands above to Windows-style ones, notepad will open the file.

--- Comment #13 from Bruno Jesus 00cpxxx@gmail.com --- The problem is quite simple to reproduce.

wine notepad /etc/passwd

This will result in a message box saying something like:

The file "tc/passwd" does not exist.

Windows notepad will give:

The file "/etc/passwd" does not exist.

wine text.txt works, but if you add different amount of / or \ letters before text.txt the behaviour changes.

--- Comment #16 from trashystashy2@gmail.com --- Debian wine-devel v.1.9.4 cannot execute any Windows program (e.g., notepad or wordpad) except via Linux shell command line.

This has been happening to me since I installed the WineHQ official wine-devel binaries for the first time last month -- my older wine from Debian repo was working for these cases. After upgrading via Synaptic Package Manager yesterday, I noticed how new wine always fails to start its own programs.

$ uname --all Linux debian 3.16.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt20-1+deb8u3 (2016-01-17) x86_64 GNU/Linux

$ wine --version wine-1.9.4

$ wine notepad.exe "Could not load wine-gecko. HTML rendering will be disabled. wine: configuration in '/home/user/.wine' has been updated." (First time usage, I did not accept installing either the .NET or the wine-gecko options, nor their Debian repo package substitutes.)

$ wine notepad wine-bug.txt (works!)

$ wine notepad.exe wine-bug.txt (works!)

PROBLEM: Double-click on wine-bug.txt from MATE's file manager. (fails! Temporarily displays in task bar as loading.)

Right-click for properties menu from MATE's file manager and manually enter "wine notepad.exe %1" as command to execute for file types having extension ".txt". (fails! 'ome/user/wine-bug.txt' file not found!)

Notice the missing 'h' from the Unix-style pathname. Wine v1.9.4 is removing at least the first character of the OS supplied (relative?) pathname. This problem does not happen likewise starting MATE's Pluma text editor. Therefore the defect is wine-devel specific.

Just for a testing purpose I copy pasted

--- Comment #19 from Bruno Jesus 00cpxxx@gmail.com --- This bug is fixed in the sense that it works like Windows notepad now, with the additional bonus of being able to open unix paths that don't clash with the /p option.

/p is always eaten as is in Windows.
