Bug #: 34939 Summary: Dragon NaturallySpeaking does not install in 64-bit version Product: Wine Version: 1.7.6 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: susancragin@earthlink.net Classification: Unclassified
Created attachment 46557 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=46557 Dragon Naturally Speaking Home 12.5 installation log
Regression, maybe. Maybe not. Here's why.
I downloaded wine 1.7.6 today for the first time from the Ubuntu ppa repository. Then, starting with a new wineprefix, I set the version to Windows 8 and did winetricks fontfix.
Then I tried re-installing Dragon NaturallySpeaking. NatSpeak installs with a single EXE file, but it auto-detects whether the system is 32-bit or 64-bit, and installs accordingly.
The installation seemed to go very well, and very fast, until at the very end, something went amiss, and I did not get the closing message that I usually do.
I looked at the terminal log (see first attachment) but nothing jumped out at me.
I tried running the program. After a feeble attempt it crashed. Again, the log seemed to tell me nothing. (See second attachment.)

--- Comment #3 from Susan Cragin susancragin@earthlink.net 2013-11-20 09:30:37 CST --- I have communicated with Nuance and learned that NatSpeak is 32-bit *only* but has modules to communicate with 64-bit. So this complicates and simplifies things. To sum up, after installing 1.7.6, NatSpeak seems to install correctly up until the last message (it may in fact install correctly) but it does not run. I assume that wine is trying to install NatSpeak's artificial "64-bit version" and is having trouble running it. The solution may be just to force installation of NatSpeak's plain-vanilla 32-bit version, since that's all that's running anyway. ??

This is a relay log (last 1000 lines) done with the first attempt to run NatSpeak. So, the installation into wine-1.7.7 went fine, but then the program did not run. And here's proof. However, if I install using wine-1.7.4, and then upgrade to wine-1.7.7, NatSpeak runs fine.

--- Comment #5 from Susan Cragin susancragin@earthlink.net 2013-12-02 08:35:15 CST --- This bug was filed against wine-1.7.6. However, behavior has changed with wine-1.7.7, so I upgraded the bug. The situation is now as follows: Wine-1.7.7 seems to install NatSpeak 12.5 Home flawlessly, however, then the program does not run (see new winedebug relay log). If I install with wine-1.7.4, installation is flawless. If I then upgrade to wine-1.7.7, the program runs fine.

--- Comment #6 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net 2013-12-03 13:39:05 CST --- Hello,
there is nothing suspicious in the log, just a normal process exit (code=0). Is that issue specific to 12.5 or can it be reproduced with 12.0 (which seems more 'available'). 12.5 is just 12.0 with service pack 1 applied, right?
The issue with 32-bit vs. 64-bit only applies to the InstallShield engine itself. It detects the 'bitness' of the environment and either starts an out-of-proc 32-bit or 64-bit COM server to which the installer (client) talks to. All other stuff - even the main installer - are just plain 32-bit binaries.
I remember correctly DN requires .NET 3.5 or 4.0 ... do you use Mono or MS .NET? The latter one won't install properly in 64-bit prefix (even though the installer says 'success'). That could also cause some issues.
Regards

Right.

I use mono. There are two monos on synaptic. wine-mono0.0.8 and 4.5.0. I've got both of them.

Why?
Because NatSpeak does not work properly any more in Windows-XP, according to Nuance's web site. So I just jack it up to the most current version.

Forgot to add... NatSpeak 12.0 and 12.5 use net 4.0.

--- Comment #11 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).
