[Bug 11960] New: Legacy 5 - created web pages cannot be viewed in browser from within Legacy .

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11960

Summary: Legacy 5 - created web pages cannot be viewed in browser
                    from within Legacy.
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.57.
          Platform: PC-x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

While checking out functionality of Legacy 5, I created a set of web pages
successfully, except that the dialog option to view the pages in a browser did
not work, either with Konqueror or Firefox.

I had created the pages to a folder in my home folder [drive y:], and I think
the browsers were objecting to this address.  Drive d: caused same trouble,
etc.

The window for selecting the location for the creation of the web pages cannot
give access to conventional linux drive addresses, instead it offers only
windows drives.

The pages are accessible directly via browser, just not via Legacy.

so you're saying legacy 5 is trying to launch konqueror / firefox with a
file:///y:/... url?

Not exactly.

When Legacy launches Konqueror, Konqueror throws up "Protocol not supported
y" error.  If I try to access the pages via Wine's drive d:, then "protocol d
is not supported".

If I set it to launch Firefox, Firefox says it doesn't know how to access this
address because no application is associated with the protocol (y).

can you run:

WINEDEBUG=+exec,+winebrowser wine legacy_app_name.exe > legacy_log.txt 2>&1

and attach legacy_log.txt to this bug report?

I entered 
WINEDEBUG=+exec,+winebrowser wine "c:\Legacy\legacy.exe"  > legacy_log.txt
2>&1
which I presume is what you wanted.  Legacy launched, I produced the web pages
and confirmed I wished to view them in my browser, and a log was produced, but
did not seem to have anything significant - just a bunch of 'fixme's, so I
engaged brain.

Now, I have been using my **linux** browsers (inc. Konqueror as I indicated)
and I realised this might be a problem, even though Legacy could launch them
and access the Legacy site.

So I installed IE in wine and am now able to browse the web pages OK.

However, it still is not possible to check for updates from Legacy - it just
times out.  I've just checked on XP and it responds immediately.  I did mention
this as a possible problem in my initial bug.  On the same dialog box used to
check for updates, there is a link to 'See what's new' and that works as
expected.  Should I raise it as a separate bug, please?

shellexec and winebrowser. Maybe legacy is doing it differently, which would
explain why those logs came up empty.

Did you install ies4linux? We can't support that BTW.

Yes, please file a separate bug. There's been some wininet issues lately.

BTW, is this the website for the program? http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/

I used wine-doors.

Hmm, I downloaded Legacy 5 here:
http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/Download/Legacy5/sng1/Legacy5Setup.exe

- Started with a fresh .wine directory
- Installed Legacy 5
- Started the app, opened the sample family database
- Created a webpage
- It asked me if I wanted to view the webpage, I clicked yet

result - Firefox opened
file:///home/thestig/.wine/drive_c/Legacy/web/sample/index.htm successfully. No
need to install wine-doors or do anything special.

That's good!!  No oleauto32 or vbasic?

I've noticed that my Legacy version is not the latest and have downloaded the
newer one, which presumably will be the one you used.  I'll install that and
de-install iexplore  from wine-doors and see if that makes a difference.

Nope.  Done that.  I've assumed you didn't specify a particular browser, so I
reset to default.  On view web page, Wine Internet Explorer opens a blank
window, and that's it.  Same if I set to Wine's IE.

Let's reopen this for now until we get it ironed out.

> That's good!!  No oleauto32 or vbasic?

Nope, I started with a fresh ~/.wine from scratch. Removed the old one and ran
wineprefixcreate.

If you read comment 7, I'm using Legacy 5 (final version), not Legacy 6.

So before it was trying to open in Konqueror, and now it's opening in Wine's
IE?

Hi
Right, now I've done that (I won't bore you with what then happened as that is
the subject of an earlier bug, revisited.)  So, sticking to the point.  Legacy
can now launch a browser (it's own) to view the web pages.  So, many thanks for
that.  Further coments below.  continue...

Yes, me too.  That is, I'm now on the final version, not the earlier one I was
on.  (It made no difference.)

It would launch whichever browser I set in Options/launch, either Firefox or
Konqueror in Linux, Internet Explorer from wine-doors, or wine's own, but none
showed any content.  After removing .wine etc., I didn't specify any browser
and  it launches wine's with proper content.

Fixed, I'd say and thanks again.
