Bug ID: 38842 Summary: MS Office 2010, can't start installer, Ubuntu 15.04 Product: Wine Version: 1.7.44 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: showard314@gmail.com Distribution: ---
Created attachment 51773 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=51773 backtrace
Following: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=17336
wine 1.7.44, Ubuntu 15.04, amd64 (x86-64)
1) Created win32 wineprefix WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.local/share/wineprefixes/office2010 winecfg
2) Tried the installer: WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.local/share/wineprefixes/office2010 wine setup.exe I get a pop up "Error: Newer windows version needed."
3) Told winecfg to use windows 7 (even though appdb says to use windows xp) WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.local/share/wineprefixes/office2010 winecfg
4) Tried installer again: WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.local/share/wineprefixes/office2010 wine setup.exe "Program Error: The program setup.exe has encountered a serious problem..." and generates the attached backtrace and console output
Thank you

--- Comment #2 from Nikolay Sivov bunglehead@gmail.com --- You sure you're trying Office 2010 and not Office 2013?

--- Comment #3 from showard314@gmail.com --- Yes it's office 2010. I was able to get it to work! I had to manually choose the file: WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.local/share/wineprefixes/office2010 wine setup.exe /adminfile CUSTOM.MSP
I don't know if my work hacked setup.exe, but the above command fixed it. Since I don't know what happened to my setup.exe, it might not be worth trying to debug it.

--- Comment #4 from Nikolay Sivov bunglehead@gmail.com --- Well, your backtrace shows d3d10/d3d11/dwrite that Office can't use when running on winxp. So if you want it to work, use default winxp prefix version.
