Summary: Hotspot Shield does not install Product: Wine Version: 1.1.8 Platform: All URL: http://www.hotspotshield.com/ OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: jens@porup.com
I downloaded and tried to install Hotspot Shield so I could use it as a proxy server to access US-only video content.
It prompts me to select the installation folder, but no matter what I select the Install button remains greyed out. Also, it did not permit me to create a new folder. Here are the relevant errors:
fixme:advapi:CheckTokenMembership ((nil) 0x134e48 0x32fb48) stub! fixme:shell:SHAutoComplete SHAutoComplete stub fixme:shell:BrsFolder_OnCreate flags BIF_NEWDIALOGSTYLE partially implemented fixme:shell:BrsFolder_OnCommand make new folder not implemented

--- Comment #1 from Niko Sandschneider nsandschn@gmx.de 2009-08-02 13:50:35 --- Confirming part of the bug with wine 1.1.26. The Install button isn't greyed out, so this problem seems to be fixed. Though there are several error messages due to page faults during the installation, the program seems to install fine anyway. But creating a new folder during installation still doesn't work. I'm getting the same error messages as foobard in his description.

--- Comment #2 from Louis Lenders xerox_xerox2000@yahoo.co.uk 2009-08-16 17:57:04 --- Confirming Indeed there are multiple crashes during the install. The first crash is at least due to missing message id's from kernel32. I'll send a patch for that

I just downloaded the newest Hotspot Shield install executable via: http://anchorfree.com/downloads/hotspot-shield/thank-you.php??cc=US
it installed and the program opened. Looks like this bug should be considered closed.

did you get the same results using the lastest download at http://www.hotspotshield.com/ ?
The two files don't appear to be the same.
When I download the file from hotspotshield.com, I get the following msgbox error:
The program HSS-149-install-anchorfree-243-ask3.exe has encounted a serious problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
This can be caused by a problem in a program or a deficiency in Wine. You may want to ... &etc.

--- Comment #5 from foobard jens@porup.com 2010-08-24 23:23:14 --- more info:
after clicking on this apparently fatal warning, hotspot shield continues to install, then opens the following bogus web page in Firefox:
http://127.0.0.1:895/config/?action=connect&lang=eng&afd=1282710092&...
Firefox gives the standard error message:
Unable to connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 127.0.0.1:895.

That's a stupid application bug - but in the end harmless because the main installer is already started from bootstrap installer.
There is a helper module "ExecDos.dll" extracted which is used to spawn processes and capture console output:
--- snip --- C:\users\focht\Temp\nsq81ae.tmp\ExecDos.dll --- snip ---
The module allocates and deallocates memory blocks using GlobalAlloc()/GlobalFree(). The problem is at the end, when some code tries to read a variable from block that is already freed by GlobalFree(). This leads to a code path that should never been taken at this point, crashing it.
You can verify by running the app with +heap debug channel enabled (free block data left intact) -> no crash.
Anyway, I'll mark this one fixed as the install completes. Open new bug reports for additional issues.

Hi Alexandre - hats off for providing a fix for this one. As I am a total plum who only recently learnt to tie his own shoelaces, - could you be kind enough to advise how to enable the +heap debug channel etc as you specify, as I would love to run the hss app!
I can accurately follow instructions, but do not savvy computer terminology very much at all as yet.
Many thanks
Richard

# You might want to redirect to /dev/null, it'll be a lot of output. Or use warn+heap for less output.
