Bug #: 31939 Summary: QuickBooks Pro 8 setup exits silently Product: Wine Version: 1.5.14 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: kennybobs@o2.co.uk Classification: Unclassified
Created attachment 42069 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=42069 wine-1.5.14-307-g1f876a6 +relay +seh +tid
The setup for Quickbooks Premier: Accountant Edition 2008 US exits silently.
Running as "wine d:\setup.exe" or any variant doesn't do anything. Nothing printed in the console.
Tried "winetricks dotnet20 comctl32 msxml3 msxml4 vcrun2005" as suggested by the AppDB but nothing makes any difference. "winetricks flash vcrun2008" both won't install so couldn't try them.
Cannot find a downloadable trial for this specific version.
Works fine in Win XP.

execve("/home/test/chrootprecisei386/usr/local/bin/wine-preloader", ["/home/test/chrootprecisei386/usr"..., "/home/test/chrootprecisei386/usr"..., "/media/QBPRO2008R1/setup.exe"], [/* 28 vars */]) = 0
Have you tried running without one? Maybe something's funny with it.

--- Comment #5 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com --- This is your friendly reminder that there has been no bug activity for over a year. Is this still an issue in current (1.7.37 or newer) wine? If so, please attach the terminal output in 1.7.37 (see http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log).

--- Comment #6 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net --- Hello folks,
I found a distributed backup - thanks to some people still seeding old stuff.
In short: There is nothing to fix here. Ken didn't change to proper working directory prior running the installer with "<cd-drive>:\foo.exe" path syntax.
Test: I (fuse) mounted the ISO image at 'd:' to replicate the setup.
Working directory = $HOME (to prove the point)
--- snip --- $ ll .wine/dosdevices/ total 16 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 focht focht 10 May 10 2015 c: -> ../drive_c lrwxrwxrwx. 1 focht focht 16 Nov 12 16:53 d: -> /home/focht/iso/ lrwxrwxrwx. 1 focht focht 8 Nov 12 16:53 e:: -> /dev/sr0 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 focht focht 1 Jun 24 00:11 z: -> /

This of course can't work if the working directory is not properly set since the installer makes assumptions with relative paths.
Changing to the mount point before running 'wine d:\setup.exe' lets the installer show the user interface. Full installation succeeds in clean WINEPREFIX.
Tidbit: All those 'winetricks' recipes referenced in initial report are not needed anymore - they rather pollute WINEPREFIX nowadays (installer bundles MDAC 2.8 and .NET 2.0 on it's own and installs if necessary).
$ wine --version wine-1.7.54-302-g5cf9539
