Summary: MXit PC: Displays window with no contents on start
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.2
          Platform: Other
               URL: http://www.mxit.com/mxitpc
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

MXit PC 1.3.0.5 Beta (the latest (and only) version available at the time of
the test) opens a window that shows "main" on the taskbar on its second start.
This Window only display the content of whatever is below it or it is
completely white (after restoring from minimize)

Currently startup results are inconsistent, with a total failure to start after
a few tries.

Without any debug options the console gives several ole and urlmon related
errors.

Tested under Wine 1.1.2 under Gentoo with a clean WINEPREFIX.

+relay log uploaded to here: http://www.mohag.net/wine_log_mxit.log.bz2

It runs better after winetricks dcom98. With native dcom it only gives urlmon
errors on the console and a Fatal error: "The dynamic link library 'RPCRT4,DLL'
could not be found" in a message box. Thereafter it shows the white window as
described above.

To clarify on the white window vs. crash. It seems to open the white window
when starting from the applications menu and crashes when ran from the console.

Console command:
~/.wine_mxit/drive_c/Program Files/MXit/MXitPC $ WINEPREFIX=~/.wine_mxit wine
c:\Program\ Files\MXit\MXitPC\launcher.exe &> ~/wine_mxit.log

Command in Applications menu:
env WINEPREFIX="/home/mohag/.wine_mxit" wine "C:\Program
Files\MXit\MXitPC\launcher.exe"

Work path:
/home/mohag/.wine_mxit/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/MXit/MXitPC/

Hi, this looks like it's a bug in wine's oleaut32. I have an older version of
this program on my hard disk, (as a there was once a question from a user on
the userlist) and that one too displays the window fine  with native oleaut32.

This newer version also seem to suffer from an additional bug in shdocvw (bug
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14139) A have a patch for that last bug
lying here, but i dunno if it's really correct, i'll attach it to that bug.

Ok, the oleaut32.dll override fixes the UI...

It still starts up with an error though and fails to connect.

Screenshot of startup attached.

It fails startup from the command line though... Log attached. (still lots of
ole and urlmon errors)

Non crashing startup with oleaut32 override

The crash at startup seemed to be caused by the working directory when starting
the application.

Same command as above but from application folder.

Program quit with Alt+F4

For me in git, launching it hangs with no window. With winetricks dcom98,
window displays.

First log - crash after splash screen

Latest MxitPC download (1.3.0.5 Beta)
Latest Wine (1.1.14)
Video: Intel X3100, Mesa 7.2, renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) G33 20061102
OS: Ubuntu 8.10 x86_64
> From clean install, no overrides, it shows a splash screen (with some

alpha-blending issues) and dies.

With a oleauth32.dll override, it starts, opens a white window and crashes with
a Visual C++ runtime error on Alt-F4 the first time. Runtime error closed by
itself before I could take a screenshot.

Second start with oleauth32.dll override it dies after splashscreen.

Several runs later, it actually opened a non-white window with what looks like
normal content displayed. I quit from the tray icon and it Gave the runtime
error (This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual
way) again, I took a screenshot (which I cannot find) and clicked OK. Window
did not disappear yet. Used close from Gnome application bar context menu to
close.

Note for previous comment: rpcrt4 is actually in windows\system32 and override
is set.

Better not do winetricks dcom98, that messes up quite bit.

I did "winetricks mfc42" (also installs a native oleaut32)

Then set oleaut32 to native. Then it starts just fine for me ( but don't how to
test further)

Log with after "winetricks mfc42 native_oleaut32"

I did a clean MXitPC install. Did not start it before override.

Did override. Started program. Started fine. Logs in fine.

Gives error shortly after login. Visual C++ runtime error pops up and
application crashes. (Probably another bug?)

I have a test account somewhere, will try to find it and post login details.

Mxit is an instant messenger aimed at mobile phones. I created a test account
from my phone on a bogus number.

It has the default services.

This bug is no longer relevant. The MXit developers stopped developing the MXit
PC app and is instead focusing on a Pidgin plugin. (It is included in the
latest Pidgin and also runs under Linux, eliminating the need to run it
mostly...)

This bug has been marked as irrelevant by OP two years ago. Shouldnt this be 
closed as abandoned ?
