[Bug 13178] New: Latest version of PT cannot start because of a software protection called Amadillo
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13178
Summary: Latest version of PT cannot start because of a software protection called Amadillo Product: Wine Version: 0.9.55. Platform: PC URL: http://www.pokertracker.com OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: feydreva@lsu.fr
When I start the app I get a dialog box that says:
For security purposes, this program will not run while system debuggers are active. Please remove or disable the system debugger before trying to run this program again.
The command line messages are:
$ wine PokerTracker.exe fixme:process:SetProcessShutdownParameters (00000100, 00000001): partial stub. fixme:reg:RegSetKeySecurity :(0x7c,4,0x399f58): stub
I have communicated with the lead developer who informs me that beta 11 was the first version that had the copy protection software installed. That software is "Software Passport." which apparently also uses the name Amadillo.
From the PT3 forums :
from Josh, the admin there : Sounds like the piracy protection we're using in this latest version doesn't work well with WINE. There may be settings under WINE you can change, but I'm far from an expert on the subject.
Any idea how to fix this ?
Thanks

--- Comment #3 from Krisztian Vida vidakris@gmail.com 2008-05-12 21:59:34 --- Same problem with here. I tried first with wine 0.9.59, then upgraded to 1.0rc-1. The workaround with setting the Windows version to Win2000 didn't help, either.
The output to console is:
fixme:process:SetProcessShutdownParameters (00000100, 00000001): partial stub. fixme:reg:RegSetKeySecurity :(0x78,4,0x389f58): stub

--- Comment #10 from Ray ray.barker@hughes.net 2008-05-21 15:03:00 --- I am still getting the same error message. It doesn't matter whether I configure as 2000 or XP, I get the same message.
I am using wine 0.9.58 on Fedora 8--that is the most recent version of wine in the Fedora repositories. When I get a new wine version, I will post that result.

--- Comment #13 from Matt Turnbull mcturnbull@fastmail.fm 2008-09-04 12:44:10 --- Using Ubuntu, affected me on Gutsy => so upgraded to Hardy, but same problem. But appears to be solved for me by setting WINEDEBUG=-all
e.g.
env WINEDEBUG=-all wine "C:\Program Files\PokerTracker 3\PokerTracker.exe"
(not winedbg=-all, as found elsewhere, which must be for wine pre 1.0 or something)
PT version 3.00 b17, wine-1.0

Looks like the race condition I found some time ago in Armadillo software protection code. I wrote a lengthy in-depth analysis here: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12948#c7 (bug 12948)
In short: It's not fixable in wine. This race happens within a very small time frame - hence anything that affects execution time of father and child process can turn into success or failure, like WINEDEBUG=-all.
