Summary: Shareaza can't connect without existing HostCache.dat Product: Wine Version: 0.9.15. Platform: PC URL: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?appId=1447 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-net AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: adrian.macneil@gmail.com
In Shareaza (www.shareaza.com), the p2p program won't connect to the gnutella2 network, even if you leave it running for hours. Interestingly, it connects to the ed2k network fine. All the host discovery services fail to return results.
Workaround: Copy HostCache.dat from a working Shareaza install to ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/user/Application Data/Shareaza/Data/
Thoughts: It could be that Shareaza can't connect to web-based discovery services at all. Once it has working hosts to connect to it has other methods of discovering new hosts.
I'm not sure how to debug this bug, so if you give me some instructions on how to get some logs or something I will gladly help.
