[Bug 23816] New: Wine fails to find mscorsvw.exe

Summary: Wine fails to find mscorsvw.exe Product: Wine Version: 1.2 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: william.r.douglas+wine@gmail.com CC: madewokherd@gmail.com

I am getting the attached error when I attempt to run wine with a executable requiring .NET 3.5.

I am using wine 1.2 installed through the ubuntu ppa. I am using 64 bit ubuntu so my lib directory is /usr/lib32/wine though I don't know if that makes much difference. Also my full path for the v2 .NET folder is:

~/.wine/drive_c/windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v2.0.50727

I am attempting to have mono26 installed through winetricks be used in place of the .NET framework.

I was able to make progress with installing through winetricks mono26, volnum and forcemono only. The program (download here: http://www.fileplay.net/file/9159/bloodline-champions-beta-installer) would try to install .net 3.5 and xna 3.1 and would fail at some point in the install where I hit control-c to stop the process. I retried without any changes and it succeeded the second time completing the install.

At this point I would run the bloodlinechampions.exe in wine and it would not launch. I then tried to install .net 2.0 and 3.0 and I would run the program again getting the attached output. This would popup the loader dialog but would have an error and try and get me to install .net 3.5 again.

If the game uses xna, i think the mono-way will not work (not 100% sure though). I guess you'll have to install .net 2.0/3.0 and then try fake 3.5 install. I'm currently downloading the game, and have a look

Well , to fool the installer (after first doing winetricks dotnet30) the registrykeys below are enough (probably only the Install = 00000001 key)

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v3.5\1033] "Install"=dword:00000001 "MSI"=dword:00000001 "SP"=dword:00000001 "Version"="3.5.30729.01"

The installation went fine, but when i tried to start the game, it complained again that i had to install .net 3.5. Apperently it was missing assembly System.Core. After copying that from my windows partition, the games started up, almost to the end of the initialization screen, then it crashed.

After that I brutally copied over everything from my windows partition from c:\windows\assembly to ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/assembly, and everything from c:\windows\Microsoft.Net to ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/Microsoft.Net. Now the loginscreen appeared. I don't have a login, but there seems to be a connection problem anyway, as the app also can't receive server news. Maybe server is down, or yet another wine-bug ;)

--- Comment #10 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net 2010-07-29 03:06:32 --- Hello,

--- quote --- Mono should function as a valid replacement for .net in Wine. --- quote ---

Sure ... but changes to Wine should be in a way that doesn't end up messing MS .NET Framework or clutter up Wine with various .NET specific stuff that clearly doesn't belong there (non OS-related, not subject to Win32/64 API). MS .NET and Mono should be treated equally as "external" applications.

It will only hurt the Wine user experience in the years to come if you start to treat MS .NET Framework as second class citizen in order to _completely_ replace it (a tedious task for a moving target also considering various legal issues that prevent impl some key technologies/components).

I overlooked some stuff in the past which sneaked in aid to get Mono up but in fact more or less confuses installers and users (can be fixed afterwards but that requires additional steps). Also triaging mono bugs (that are in fact application bugs!) in Wine bugzilla is a somewhat questionable approach. If you really want that, consider adding a keyword "mono" to bugzilla to not confuse/mix up Wine bugs from .NET Framework ("dotnet" keyword).

Regardings this bug, Louis already said it, add:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v3.5\1033] "Install"=dword:00000001

and the installer won't complain.

--- Comment #12 from Vincent Povirk madewokherd@gmail.com 2010-07-29 12:47:21 --- MS .NET Framework is a second-class citizen, and it should be treated as such, just like all other Windows components that can be used in Wine.

Mono is an upstream project of Wine that provides (among other things, most of which we're not using yet) a CLI interpreter and class libraries. Mono cannot be used in place of .NET on Windows, and so running Mono on Windows cannot tell us whether a particular bug is in Mono or Wine. Since there's no easy test, Mono-related bugs have to go SOMEWHERE to be triaged, and the place that makes the most sense is here.

Since Mono does not and should not act as a .NET replacement on Windows, it needs help from Wine to do this, including replacements for the interfaces used by Windows programs to interact with .NET (such as mscoree.dll).

It should really be there by default, like Gecko, but I've not yet been able to do a complete Windows build of Mono on Linux, so for now we have to rely on the official packages.

if Mono is not installed, programs should ideally see that .NET is missing and try to install it, but it's more important that programs see .NET as installed when Mono is installed. Since most installers use the registry or filesystem to detect .NET, I can't have it both ways. If this ever causes a problem for .NET installers (which, to my knowledge, it hasn't), programs like winetricks should be able to work around it.

Then let's draw a line otherwise this really gets messy and confuses users and developers. Don't (ab)use 'dotnet' keyword in Wine bugzilla for this kind of stuff. It subverts the original meaning of being valid Wine bugs, unearthed by .NET Framework. Invent a new one "mono" or just use "mscoree" component consistently - without 'dotnet'.

--- Comment #18 from william william.r.douglas+wine@gmail.com 2010-07-30 15:52:13 --- So far I've not been able to duplicate your complete results with copying .net components from a windows VM.

I installed just the .net 3.5 framework and then the game (and the game installed xna 3.1).

I'm getting further in the setup but not to the point where I could login. (server was down btw so explains why you weren't able to pull anything, they are down for the weekend too normally).

First I get a non critical error attached as LoaderErrror that I can just hit continue past, I downloaded the patches through a windows vm so I can hit the play button and the loading screen for the game almost finishes before it hard crashes.

At this point I have created the registry edit and winetricks installed dotnet30. I then have copied over ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/Microsoft.NET in full and was cherry picking all the missing folders from ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/assembly/GAC_MSIL (I went and looked one level down to see if the folders had a .net 3.5 folder in them and I copied those as well).

The log from running the bloodlinechampionlauncher.exe through wine is included as well as the screen shot I get from the error that I can't scroll around as the program is completely unresponsive.

I have tried a few different ways of copying everything from the assembly folder after doing the install overwriting what was there but get the same results.

There are statements from Mono guys to not change the behaviour to allow for invalid IL code.

--- quote --- Many .NET obfuscators change the assemblies such that they are not technically correct assemblies (they fall outside the .NET assembly specs) but such that they still run on the Microsoft .NET runtime by exploiting bugs specific to Microsoft's implementation. I suspect they do this to make it harder for assembly reader tools/libraries to load the assemblies. Unfortunately, this also prevents Mono runtime from loading the assemblies. In general Mono has a policy of not "fixing" support for this kind of invalid obfuscated code, so you'll need to ask SmartAssembly support for help. --- quote ---

--- quote --- Mono fully supports valid IL. Unfortunately SmartAssembly is known to generate invalid IL which only runs because Microsofts .NET implementation has bugs and does not reject the broken assembly. There is not much we can do in this case. Your best bet is to contact SmartAssembly and let them know the problem and see if they would fix the issue. --- quote ---

Nor is it necessarily a duplicate because Mono can report this for different reasons.

You really need to see the IL code to make this determination, but unfortunately I don't have a good way of extracting it for methods with strange names.

no problem, marking 'new' again.

May I suggest that you manage Wine-Mono bugs more actively since it's _your_ area of interest (around 101 on 'mscoree' component now, possibly more if people insist on using Mono instead of native .NET).

New subject: [Bug 23816] Multiple .NET applications obfuscated with 'SmartAssembly' fail to run with Wine-Mono (invalid IL code rejected by Mono)

--- Comment #31 from Esme Povirk madewokherd@gmail.com --- This came up again while revisiting bug 30429.

I've since found https://github.com/0xd4d/de4dot which does a good job of identifying obfuscators. I've also found that ILSpy does a pretty good job of extracting IL code, so maybe I can make more progress with this now.

--- Comment #32 from Esme Povirk madewokherd@gmail.com --- Examining the code, it seems to be failing on a function with more static branches than actual instructions. ILSpy is in agreement with Mono that the code is invalid.

While I don't think it's possible to make Mono's JIT accept this code, it's probably feasible to preprocess the code into something valid. I've also seen other programs that could benefit from this.

But, this is a big project, and I'm still working on getting WPF working more than 5% of the time, so it'll have to wait.

--- Comment #33 from Zebediah Figura z.figura12@gmail.com --- Could we maybe interpret anything that's impossible to JIT?

--- Comment #34 from Esme Povirk madewokherd@gmail.com --- I don't know how the interpreter works. I wouldn't expect it to work on IL directly and accept invalid IL, or work alongside the JIT.

--- Comment #35 from Zebediah Figura z.figura12@gmail.com --- I was at least under the impression that the interpreter parsed CIL. At least a cursory examination seems to imply that [see e.g. interp_exec_method()].

Of course, I have found it extremely difficult to get a grasp of Mono's broad architecture, so I don't know how hard it would be to use the interpreter alongside mini.

I don't have the context to understand why this code isn't compilable, but if there's code that's only invalid in paths that can't be reached, presumably the interpreter would help avoid that. In particular bug 48499 (where the stack depth is sometimes wrong) is what motivated my suggestion.

--- Comment #36 from Esme Povirk madewokherd@gmail.com --- The stack has a well-defined set of types at each part of the code, specified in the standard, which only depends on the instructions before it. Mono depends on this.
