Bug ID: 57201 Summary: EA client cannot launch game after wine 8.17+ Product: Wine Version: 8.17 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: [email protected] Reporter: [email protected] Distribution: ---
Created attachment 77096 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=77096 last steps of bisect
wine 8.16 was able to launch old origin games with the new EA client. with wine 8.17 and above, some kind of an arcane error message is given and the launch fails. I bisected the problem to 917d6afa695ba8d5124a11b02b18c6777cc9e56c, wbemprox: Implement Win32OperatingSystem.Installdate. The last stages of the bisect are attached. OS is Slackware 15.0, x86_64, RTX 4070. Windows version is set to 10 in winecfg.
I don't know if this affects other than old origin games as I only have one origin game that I ever launch (and that very rarely), PvZ GoTY.

--- Comment #1 from Andrew Nguyen [email protected] --- Can you attach a log of Wine debug output with WINEDEBUG=+wbemprox, and are you able to provide instructions for reproducing the problem?

--- Comment #2 from Hans Leidekker [email protected] --- This commit changes the reported OS install date which may appear to the launcher/game as if Windows was reinstalled. Can you try reinstalling EA and the game?

In a fresh prefix?

--- Comment #4 from tjb [email protected] --- I will try fresh prefix tonight. Reinstall game does same thing. If fresh prefix does not correct it I will create the wbemprox log. client has been auto-refreshed in the existing Win10 prefix.
to reproduce: log into EA client, select library, select game (tested with PvZ GoTY and Steamworld Dig, both originally installed with old origin installer), launch game. On wine 8.16 the game will start and run, on wine 8.17+ an error message will be given stating the game cannot be launched.

That fixed it, thank you! Apparently the date update was a breaking change for an existing EA client install for some reason. Tested on wine 9.17 for proper install of the EA client (I let it auto-create the prefix to defaults). The game downloaded, installed, and launches now with no issues.
I can't figure out how to mark issue resolved and closed, but it can be closed. Thanks everyone for quick responses.

--- Comment #6 from Andrew Nguyen [email protected] --- Thanks for checking. There doesn't appear to be any bug in Wine, so I'll resolve this bug as invalid.
