Summary: Dawn of War: graphics configuration fails to start Product: Wine Version: 1.1.42 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: pzs@dcs.gla.ac.uk
I have installed Dawn of War and patched to 1.51. When I start I get a Windows dialog saying "System Initialization Failed! Errors: Could not find required data. Make sure you are running this utility from your Dawn of War directory." I then get a Graphics Configuration dialog where only the Cancel button is available.
This happens whether I run it from the installed directory ($HOME/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/THQ/Dawn Of War) or the CD directory (/media/DoW/). I've also tried using the --workdir switch, which seems to make no difference.

Maybe same problem as in http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24781 ?????
Does manually creating the directory ENGINE\DATA change anything?

--- Comment #5 from HennR hennr@hennr.name 2010-10-21 03:06:13 CDT --- I have the same issue with the Dawn of War Winter Assault Demo and the Dark Crusade demo as well.
These have download URLs and are linked in the "Affected Apps" section.

--- Comment #7 from Louis Lenders xerox_xerox2000@yahoo.co.uk 2010-10-21 05:55:56 CDT --- I tested the demo. Looks like another directory is missing:
001e:Call KERNEL32.lstrlenA(0033db88 "FILESYSTEM -- filepath failure, path does not exist 'GraphicsOptions\Data\'") ret=00 41103e 001e:Ret KERNEL32.lstrlenA() retval=0000004b ret=0041103e 001e:Call KERNEL32.lstrlenA(0033db88 "FILESYSTEM -- filepath failure, path does not exist 'GraphicsOptions\Data\'") ret=00 40efba 001e:Ret KERNEL32.lstrlenA() retval=0000004b ret=0040efba
After manually creating the directory GraphicsOptions\Data\ the error is gone, it tries to start, but fails anyway on my box. Could be my graphics card is not new enough, Hennr could you give it a try?
Anyway, looks very much like http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24781, only the directoryname is different

--- Comment #8 from Louis Lenders xerox_xerox2000@yahoo.co.uk 2010-10-21 06:08:48 CDT --- The demo starts fine for me if i also create the Engine\Data directory. So here two directiroes are missing. Awaiting HennR's regression test )

Yep, seems to be the same bug with a different directory name.
After create the subfolder Data in GraphicsConfig (which got created) game starts fine.
