Bug #: 33762
           Summary: Application now won't launch -- formerly worked well
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: blocker
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]
    Classification: Unclassified

Windows application "Gradebook for Windows" no longer runs.  Last used on 6
June 2013, operated normally.  With a yum update on 8 June WINE version 1.5.29
was installed.  0n 9 June the application will not launch.

Attempt to launch the application pops up an error window stating "Unexpected
error; quitting."  Command line launch yields same result.

The application is a 16-bit Windows program, and it worked fine up until today.

Not a blocker. http://bugs.winehq.org/page.cgi?id=fields.html#importance

Please run a regression test. http://wiki.winehq.org/RegressionTesting

Sorry -- read the page on regression testing and it looks a little beyond my
capabilities.

Is there some other data I can provide to assist?

There was no terminal output.  When attempting to start the program whether by
prepared launcher or by terminal command, the outcome was the same.  A pop up
window with the WINE icon wine goblet and the message "Unexpected error;
quitting."

Created attachment 44725

Installer program

This is the program that would not run under WINE 1.5.29.

When it would not run, I attempted to remove it and re-install it and the
installer would not work, either.  Same symptoms.

(The installer may not get a complete working version.  I have a few work
arounds that, following running this installer, are necessary to make the
program work.  But I am confident that if the installer runs even without
completely installing the program, the program itself would run.)

More background information: with yum and some outside guidance, I was able to
roll back to WINE 1.5.2 and the application program now runs.

In my yum history, I think I was on WINE 1.5.25 when the program last worked. 
However, under WINE 1.5.29 it did not work.

I understand there is a later version of WINE available but it is not available
through yum (yet).

What version of the Windows application "Gradebook for Windows" did you use?
What distribution?

Also, the attached setup file from comment 6 doesn't work (claims it need
SETUP.LST).

That program runs fine for me in 1.5.29 and wine-1.6-rc1-18-gb82a5ab. (Aside
from bug 22616).

Any assistance in figuring out why it would not run for me?  (Hardware
difference?)

It is version 3.07.

I am using Fedora 17 / XFCE desktop.

Did you try the download from the website (gb.zip)? Was it a clean WINEPREFIX?
Are you using a 32-bit or 64-bit OS? The terminal output would also be useful.

You may get better help on the forums for basic debugging, fyi.

Is it the program from link in comment 9?
If not, could you please provide a URL?

The program in comment 9 is the same program GradeBook for Windows Version
2.5.1.0 but I have version 3.07.  I have confirmed it does not work for me in
WINE 1.5.29 but it does work in WINE 1.5.2.

(Sorry; I was away for a few days).  If there is some other data I can provide
please let me know and I'll try.  The regression testing thing looks a little
beyond my capability.

Correction: I am not certain whether it is the same program or not.  The
author's name is similar but not identical.  The program name is the same. 
However, my version 3 seems to be much older than the linked program's version
2.

I have found this link: http://www.rredware.com/gbdown.htm 
which tells the product is discontinued but the icon shown is the same as the
program I have.

Can you tell what was the installer file name you used, and a SHA1 checksum?

e.g. use 'sha1sum myInstallFile.exe' and report the result

$ sha1sum SETUP.EXE

This installer program is the one I have from the licensed copy I own.

Based on file date data, I have apparently been using this on Linux since 2007.

I just tried downloading the latest (final) version of the same program v3.11
and installing over the licensed copy I have, but this undoes the registration.
 The newest version also works in WINE 1.5.2.

The installer listed here also works, as I was able to re-install v3.07 over
top of v3.11 and return to a running registered copy.
