Bug #: 29436 Summary: Carbonite: does not install Product: Wine Version: 1.3.35 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: jthomas97411@yahoo.com Classification: Unclassified
Simply try to install Carbonite with Wine 1.3.35 and you will encounter this bug. The bug is that it doesn't install, in fact, the installer fails very early. Nothing visible happens except for terminal output, which it spews out seemingly endlessly.
Carbonite not installing is not a new thing to Wine. I have never witnessed any Wine version successfully install Carbonite. I'm just now writing the bug report.
Anyone can go to carbonite.com and download a free trial installer, though you do have to create an account (it's free to make an account) to download it, and they send you one e-mail. They have not harassed me in any way for giving them my e-mail address.

This seems like a bug/missing functionality in wine:
fixme:ole:TLB_ReadTypeLib Header type magic 0x00905a4d not supported. err:ole:TLB_ReadTypeLib Loading of typelib L"Z:\home\shjake\Desktop\CarboniteSetup-en.exe" failed with error 0
Carbonite is an online backup solution. It backs up files on your computer to a secure offsite place.
Things potentially relevant to the Wine development team:
* Carbonite's installer is an exe, and this exe file is an archive. Many of the files in the archive are java files (plain text). You can open the exe with an archive program and view its contents.
* Carbonite integrates with Windows Explorer (yes, the file browser, not IE). It puts an icon in the Start Bar that is yellow when getting the backup caught up with what's actually on the computer and green when the backup is in sync with what is actually on the computer. Furthermore, files that are backed up have a green dot by them in Windows Explorer and files that aren't yet backed up have a yellow dot by them. Also, Windows Explorer's right-click menu and file properties dialogue are augmented with Carbonite stuff.
* Carbonite tries to only let you backup what it considers "internal hard drives." I'm pretty sure it just goes by the controller type the hard drive is connected to. I'm not spilling any beans by saying that an external hard drive connected by SATA, just like an internal, is seen by Carbonite as an "internal hard drive". So, I am speculating, Carbonite must be able to communicate with hardware to see the connection type of a hard drive (USB, IDE, SATA, whatever).

--- Comment #1 from Jake Thomas jthomas97411@yahoo.com 2011-12-25 03:17:14 CST --- Overlooked something: There is different behavior if IE has been installed or if IE has not been installed.
If IE has not been installed: Terminal output is not endless. No installer window appears. Complains about "fixme:ieframe..." among other things.
If I attempt to install IE8 via winetricks and then try to install carbonite: Terminal output seems endless. A very small installer "window" appears. It is just a bar, and it is sized such that the bar is all that is visible.You can resize it with the mouse, but it will be a blank white area, and your mouse disappears while it is over the space...or is it over the space, given it disappeared? Note: did not successfully install IE8, it crashes when I try to run IE8, but that is a separate bug.

Ctrl + c'ed out when it went as far as it would go. No Wine Gecko installed.

Whoa! So you _do_ get a window if you attempted to install IE8 via winetricks, it just takes some patience!
And a couple things loaded in the window, but it is still mostly white space. The terminal output did eventually cease, and that is what the attachment is.
This terminal output shows the output up until a few things loaded in the window. I clicked around in the white space a little too.
Just the Carbonite banner on top and a link to go online appeared in the window. Nothing as exciting as a "next" button. I did expand the sizing of the window.

Could not load wine-gecko. HTML rendering will be disabled.
Until you install wine-gecko Wine configuration is considered invalid.
Please remove your wineprefix, install wine-gecko http://wiki.winehq.org/Gecko then install your application.

Terminal output from Carbonite installer being ran in Wine 1.3.35 in an absolutely clean prefix with the exception of Gecko being installed. Contains 0% Microsoft IE.
Thanks to Mogorva at the forums, I now know about winefile and its alt+enter file properties dialogue which I used to find the Carbonite installer version: 4.0.4.806 .
Gecko was downloaded by Wine yesterday, December 25, 2011 (or perhaps it was after midnight Pacific time, so technically it may have been the 26th, I was on a late-night computer frenzy), so unless a new Gecko version just came out in the last 16 hours or so, Gecko is up-to-date.

--- Comment #6 from Jake Thomas jthomas97411@yahoo.com 2011-12-26 16:43:30 CST --- With Gecko installed, same behavior is observed: the installer gets stuck on that windows and doesn't load most of what should be in that window. Window needs to be resized at the beginning as noted earlier. When it does load what it does of the window, most of the space in the window is white. Terminal output still complains about "fixme:ieframe...".
Still is very slow.
A folder named "Carbonite" is placed in Program Files with the sole contents being an empty folder named "Carbonite Backup".

--- Comment #7 from Jake Thomas jthomas97411@yahoo.com 2011-12-27 01:58:39 CST --- Hey, maybe we can work on finding the component(s) that broke.
In the terminal output, it says "fixme:ieframe...". I noticed ieframe is one of the options in choosing the broken component. Do I pick that one? But "urlmon" also shows up in both the terminal output as a "fixme" and an option to select in the bug report for the broken component. So is ole. And iphlpapi.
What if more than one component is broke? How do I show that? Does it let me pick another component after I pick one, or does it limit me to one?

What if more than one component is broke? How do I show that? Does it let me pick another component after I pick one, or does it limit me to one?
The rule is one problem per bug, so if you identify multiple components, you would file a bug for each one. The "Depends on" and "Blocks" fields are used to show the relationship of one bug to the next one, i.e., this bug will block whatever is the next problem, and that bug will depend on this one.
