Summary: Roblox can't join a game Product: Wine Version: 1.1.20 Platform: Other URL: http://roblox.com OS/Version: other Status: NEW Keywords: download Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dank@kegel.com
After working around bug 18388 and bug 18389, trying to join a game fails; the browser says it can't start the game, and tells you to start the app (which you already did). On the console, one sees a suspicious error message from gecko:
fixme:shdocvw:HttpNegotiate_BeginningTransaction (0x5c239a8)->(L"" L"" 0 0x33c794) 0[15c4c8]: file (null), line 0: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Unexpected error" nsresult: "0x8000ffff (NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED)" location: "JS frame :: http://www.roblox.com/ScriptResource.axd?d=lz2oPY8_Yxfc8W_Nr5tWGxJ8z2w_ENPFg... :: anonymous :: line 2144" data: no]
Possible workaround: launch games directly using e.g. wine roblox.exe -play http://www.roblox.com/Game/join.ashx?jobID=cc310936-d9bd-46a5-99cd-494d6b142... as mentioned at http://forums.roblox4linux.co.cc/index.php?topic=37.0

--- Comment #3 from Cody Jay Caperell skywarnspotter14@gmail.com 2013-08-12 01:59:38 CDT --- This is resolved, and Working:
In order to run the game, one must run "winetricks cc580 pdh vcrun2008 windowmanagerdecorated=n winhttp wininet". wininet is absolutely necessary for the client to connect to the server and vcrun2008 is to fix various graphical glitches within the app. windowmanagerdecorated=n fixes the issue where clicking anything on the titlebar does not work and acts like you are clicking behind the app.
To play the game, open a terminal and paste this command in:
wine ~/.wine/drive_c/users/$(whoami)/Local\ Settings/Application\ Data/RobloxVersions/version-*/RobloxPlayerBeta.exe --id $(zenity --entry --entry-text "Place URL" --title 'Roblox Linux Wrapper' --width 450 --height 120 | cut -d "=" -f 2)
This will open a window asking for a Place URL. Copy-paste the address of the game you would like to play (For example, http://www.roblox.com/8-Million-Visits-Sword-Fights-on-the-Heights-IV-place?...).
Once pasted, click OK and the game should load.
To play a game while logged in instead of using a Guest account, open the Roblox Studio and log in through there. Once logged in, you may close the Roblox Studio and join a game. The Roblox Player will automatically use your account information and any game you join will use that account. To log out, just open Roblox Studio and log out through there.
The game itself should work flawlessly at this point :) Enjoy!

But the question is did the site change or something got fixed in wine?
A lot changed. Wine is now capable of launching games, a new game launching mechanism is used, and the website now uses a different plugin. This bug is now impossible to reproduce in an identical scenario, even if it still exists.

--- Comment #7 from super_man@post.com --- Well if it's impossible to find out if it was fixed in wine or client side, this should be closed as invalid. If you still have issues with the site, open new bugs.

Not really, when a bug is no longer reproducible due to application changes and the older version no longer works due to app infrastructure changes the bug is usually closed as abandoned.
Since the original issue is no longer testable I'm resolving this.
