[Bug 35761] New: CES Edupack (Cambridge Engineering Selector): Installs fine, but fails to run because of write error

           Summary: CES Edupack (Cambridge Engineering Selector): Installs
                    fine, but fails to run because of write error
           Product: Wine

                OS: Linux

CES-Backtrace

Try to run and a window pops up declaring a serious error in CES.exe

I regularly have the error:

p11-kit: couldn't load module: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/pkcs11/p11-kit-trust.so:
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/pkcs11/p11-kit-trust.so: cannot open shared object
file: No such file or directory

Although, I'm not sure if this is simply a problem with running Wine on amd64
architecture.

It looks like the error is write access to a particular piece of memory.

Could you try 'winetricks dotnet20'? (You may need to do that before installing
the application).

Apparently dotnet20 isn't supported on 64 bit systems, so I can't install that
at all.

Use a 32-bit WINEPREFIX.

Thanks for the help! I'm rather new to WINE.

So, I created a 32 bit wineprefix like so

WINEPREFIX='/home/jj/prefix32' WINEARCH='win32' wine 'wineboot'

Then I installed dotnet2 with winetricks

WINEPREFIX='/home/jj/prefix32' winetricks --gui

dotnet2 installed fine.

Then I went to install CES Edupack from the downloaded directory

#:~/Downloads/CES EduPack 2013$ WINEPREFIX='/home/jj/prefix32' wine Setup.exe

The set-up installed a dotnet4 client as well as microsoft report viewer 2010,
it then continued to install the actual software

Afterwards, I tried to open CES Edupack and got the splash screen, but with an
error window telling me the "Dao libraries are not registered. Consult the user
area of granta website for more information"

This is further than I've got so far, so thank you for your help. The granta
website has nothing on Dao libraries unfortunately. Anything you could suggest
about registering libraries?

'winetricks -q jet40' should do it.

Anyway ... by installing MS .NET Framework 2.0/4.0 this bug is now a Wine-Mono
one.

Thanks!

I tried
WINEPREFIX='/home/jj/prefix32' winetricks -q jet40
and after downloading the required files it seemed to install correctly

This got past the "Dao libraries" error. Now, after the splash screen and the
program window opens, the error "CES has generated a .Net error. Value cannot
be null. Parameter name: encoder" is displayed.

Nothing in terminal?
There should be some (managed code) backtrace.

You could try 'winetricks -q gdiplus'.
If that doesn't help then try 'winetricks -q windowscodecs'

Anyway, this kind of walk-though is now really going into end-user support area
which Bugzilla was not really made for (-> winehq forums).

Okay, I'll move it to the forums. I've attached the latest terminal output in
comment #8.

Your suggestion to install gdiplus changed the error to "CES has generated a
.Net error: A generic error occurred in GDI+".

Thanks to all for their help so far. You've helped me move this from being a
bug report to a end-user problem, which seems like progress to me :)

Hello JJ,

Don't run apps with 'winedbg' unless explicitly asked for.
It does more harm than good for the inexperienced user.

--- snip ---
fixme:mscoree:CreateConfigStream
(L"C:\windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\config\machine.config",
0x33f778): stub
--- snip ---

This should not happen.
Something messed the load order for 'mscoree' up -> broken WINEPREFIX

--- snip ---
fixme:thread:__hook_pthread_create most thread attributes ignored!
fixme:thread:start_thread Started native thread 00000049
--- snip ---

You are not running plain Wine.
Any additional patches are not supported here.

--- snip ---
err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x7bcd0ea0 "loader.c:
loader_section" wait timed out in thread 0049, blocked by 002c, retrying (60
sec)
--- snip ---

Looks like your WINEPREFIX is broken now (result of too many recipes or
incorrectly applied ones).
One could try to repair it manually, fixing overrides - but that's out of the
scope of this bug.

You could try to reinstall everything again, also ensuring that 'winetricks' is
recent version (don't know how much distro 'winetricks' lags behind).

Giving remote diagnosis with broken prefix/prerequisites is not feasible.
I could probably get this app to work but since there is no official download
for the 2013 version, I'm afraid you have to figure it out on your own.

This is your friendly reminder that there has been no bug activity for over a
year. Is this still an issue in current (1.7.51 or newer) wine?

Agree

@OP: Please feel free to reopen if the bug still occurs in current wine=5.0rc1
