[Bug 9507] New: Endnote 7 wont work

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9507

Summary: Endnote 7 wont work
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.44.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: blocker
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-resources
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

Regression.

Hi, (this is my first report, so I hope its OK)

I am trying to get Endnote 7 Demo Version to work on (k)ubuntu Feisty Fawn.
After installing into Wine which goes smoothly program fails to run at all.

Logs suggest that the problem (or at least the first one) is this;
Could not find dependent assembly L"Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls"

I have no idea what this means. The full shell output is available as an
attachment inside the TAR file. Also as an attachement is the ENDnote 7 demo as
a zip file, as its quite hard to find on the web.

Endnote software errors are also reported in errors ID. 3173 and 8003 but this
is a different error it seems. Previously according to APPDB reports EndNote 7
was working (last known working date though is 2004) so I don:t know where the
break occurred.  Frank:s corner also reports ENDNote 7 demo to be working (Wine
Version: 0.2.22)

Your help is very much appreciated. Endnote is a common tool for scientists
especially as it is almost integrated into the most common online literature
search site (web of science).  Like many I can:t live without it and therefore
scientists like me can:t move to Linux even though I want to.

Thanks

Created an attachment (id=7865)
 --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=7865)
Shell console output on failure

OK can:t get Endnote in here. I found its available to download on mininova or
torrentspy (demo versions) so suprisingly its legit. Both demo and paid for
versions however have the same problem.  I have both the original and demo
versions and I get the same problem from both.
THanks

This means that you need to either run wineprefixcreate, or remove ~/.wine
and start from a clean start.

The backtrace shows it's an unimplemented function in gdiplus.  Changing
component accordingly.  Reporter, you can probably work around this doing:
  wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
  ./winetricks gdiplus
and running the app again.  Also, this isn't a blocker.

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply. At first I tried Dmitry`s method and that resolved
the problem with Endnote working correctly. I then realised however that the
reason it was working is that a device driver gdiplus.dll had appeared in the
Endnote program folder. This is what Juan suggested I think. Anyway, the result
is that there is no need to run a Wineprefixcreate routine in this case as
having the device driver alone was enough to make it work.

So thanks to both of you for getting this to work.

Note for future users, Endnote 7 does not need to be installed in Wine to work,
just drag a copy into your Wine folder (make sure you have a gdiplus.dll in
your Endnote program folder as well) and then it should work straight.
