Summary: Specific application failing to load and run after installation Product: Wine Version: 1.0.0 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: jim.hitch@englishlanguageservices.co.uk
Created an attachment (id=23337) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=23337) warn+all output
I posted this issue here
http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?p=30532#30532
and it was suggested I open a bug report here.
An application I have used on other machines installs on my new machine, but does not load to run.
The application in the UK HMRC Employers CD ROM.
When I click to run the application, nothing happens beyond mouse cursor movement to suggest the application is loading.
After sometime the application fails to load and the computer returns to its previous state with no adverse effects.

--- Comment #1 from Jeff Zaroyko jeffz@jeffz.name 2009-08-30 05:14:21 --- does it work if you use Wine 1.1.28? Wine 1.0.0 was released over a year ago.

--- Comment #2 from Juan Lang juan_lang@yahoo.com 2009-08-31 12:14:43 --- Please don't attach warn+all, it's almost never useful. Attach the console output with no WINEDEBUG flags set instead, and with a more recent version as Jeff suggested.

If you read forum you'll see I asked him to do that. And if you take a look at the log all you'll see that's not "warn" is two lines: fixme:powrprof:DllMain (0x7dea0000, 1, (nil)) not fully implemented fixme:powrprof:DllMain (0x7dea0000, 0, 0x1) not fully implemented

--- Comment #4 from Jim Hitch jim.hitch@englishlanguageservices.co.uk 2009-09-01 12:01:52 --- Hi
Have upgraded using to 1.1.28 using the appropriate Ubuntu Deb package.
Application still not working from the menus which use
env WINEPREFIX="/home/jim/.wine" wine "C:\Program Files\HMRC\Employer CD-ROM 2009\EmployerCDROM.exe"
But right clicking on the .exe and selecting 'open with wine' now works.
Haven't tested the stability, but is looking good so far.
Do you want me to attach anything for you to have a look at?

env WINEPREFIX="/home/jim/.wine" wine "C:\Program Files\HMRC\Employer CD-ROM 2009\EmployerCDROM.exe"
Have you changed your CWD to the directory specified in the .desktop file?

What do you mean by 'CWD'?

Current working directory, as pointed out in the Wine FAQ to run an application you must 'cd' to the install directory or the working directory the .desktop file sets otherwise you are not running it by the same method as you would on Windows.

The 'work path' in the link what wrong, it was pointing to 'dosdevices' rather than 'C:'.
All working now. Thanks for all the help.
