Bug ID: 44121
           Summary: Software cannot be installed anymore on Wine 2.22
           Product: Wine
           Version: 2.22
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux

Installation_Traces_of_Composer_Trial

We at Notation Software (www.notation.com) use Wine since 3 years on multiple
platforms (thanks to the community). Our software is unchanged since Nov. 22nd,
2016.

With Wine 2.22 our software does not install anymore.

But for all previous Wine versions which we have used so far (from Wine 1.7.25
to Wine 2.11) all had worked fine. Using the stable version Wine 2.0.3 all is
OK, as well.

Therefore I conclude that with a change made between Wine 2.12 and Wine 2.21
(on the staging version the installation also fails) an issue was created.

Here are some details and how to reproduce the blocking situation:
------------------------------------------------------------------
(1)download the Composer trial version from
http://www.notation.com/Download.php
(2)installation on Wine-2.22 fails
but
(3)installation on the stable Wine-2.0.3 works fine.

Our software uses Custom Action "Install" and "Commit". We have done a detailed
tracing through the Install custom action. All works fine here. The Install
custom action return 0.

But it looks that after the Install custom action a fatal error happens and the
installation is terminated.

We use our software for all Windows version (XP through 10) and have ~500
installation per day mostly on Windows. All work fine.

In the attached zip-file there are two logs

- the good one from Wine-2.0.3: 
- the failure from Wine-2.22:

We have adviced our customers to use the stable Wine version.

I hope that the issue can be sorted out before these changes will be moved into
a next stable version.

Thanks

Reinhold

Please perform a regression test, https://wiki.winehq.org/Regression_Testing.

We have no environment to build Wine. On the archived Wine binary from the link
attached on  
http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/binary/
the latest version is Wine-1.8

I would help to investigate in which Wine version the bug was introduced if
binary versions for Ubuntu would be available but building Wine by ourselves is
not possible.

We can also debate what is a "blocker" and what is "normal". However, my view
is if a software won't even install anymore which perfectly installed for 3
years,  this is blocking. It is at least blocking for a next stable release.

The WineHQ repository has Ubuntu packages going back to 2.4.

Please read the definitions under Severity.

Confirming. Possibly the same issue as bug 44036?

I want to check from Wine-2.11 to Wine-2.20 in which version the fault
happened.

How do I install the archived .deb packages similar to the official command
sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-devel
including all the dependant packages?
When downloading all packages for an installation without internet as described
here 
https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu 
there are a lot more dependant packages come along. How to I get all those
dependant packages for the archived Wine version 2.11 to 2.20?

This is very likely related to 86bc556f9fd4a964cbaa66bc1fd67e4603ecd450 and bug
#34989 / bug #44036. (Probably one of those bugs should be marked resolved,
either as duplicate or fixed...) You might try attaching the patch on #34989
before running the full regression test.

I'm working on a proper fix, but it's certainly not going to get in before 3.0.

The patch in bug 34989 doesn't fix it.

Thanks for the immediate actions. The fixes need to be available for the next
stable release and for a next version of CrossOver. There is really nothing
special in the installer of Notation Composer 3 other than custom actions which
are widely used by other apps as well.

Qustion: Is it really required that I identify with which version between 2.11
and 2.20 the bug came in?
As I am having difficulties getting the archived deb files installed similar as
the actual installation with "sudo apt-get install --install-recommends
winehq-devel" due to missing dependancies.

Wine_bug_44121_Registry_Analysis

[Bug 44121] Notation Composer 3 cannot be installed anymore on Wine 2.22

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44121

--- Comment #10 from Reinhold  ---
I did some detailled analysis by comparing (Windows XP, 7, 8, 8.1, 10, Wine
2.0.3) vs. (Wine 2.22).

In a nutshell:
=============
A result of the bug is that in Wine 2.22 BEFORE the installation timepoint of
the CustomAction "Install" is reached the Registry is already fully updated as
if the product would be fully installed. In (Windows XP, 7, 8, 8.1, 10, Wine
2.0.3) the Registry is updated BETWEEN the installation timepoint of
CustomAction Install and CustomAction Commit.

I did the tests with the msi demo file of bug 41361 which stops at the various
point.

Please find in the zip file attached all detailed information. Please read the
screenshot files from 1...8. I hope that I am able to provide help withthis
analysis for the resolution.

The regression test turned up 86bc556f9fd4a964cbaa66bc1fd67e4603ecd450, the
same as bug 44036. However, the patch from bug 34989 fixes that bug but doesn't
fix this one, so I'm not sure whether this should be marked as a duplicate or
not.

The patch is known to be incomplete (e.g. it caused failures in the automation
tests), so it's likely best to mark this as a duplicate.
