Bug ID: 50198 Summary: SHMEM_FAILURE on Blizzard products on FAT32 Product: Wine-staging Version: 5.17 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: blc+wine@mail.vanade.com CC: leslie_alistair@hotmail.com, z.figura12@gmail.com Distribution: ---
Created attachment 68712 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=68712 Battle.net application log showing failure near end.
I noticed that WoW and Battle.net applications have stopped working properly when running off of FAT32 formatted partitions in Linux. The application logfiles seem to indicate that the software was unable to create and access shared memory files which had been working in the past, at least with older versions of Wine.
Attached is from battle.net application when it's trying to update WoW. WoW also gives an apparently similar error when it tries top open the CAS datafiles.
I had not upgraded the kernel so supposedly shared memory files that worked in the past on FAT32 should still work. I don't know if this was a deliberate change because of security issues where anyone can open files on FAT32 and thus invade shared memory.
Windows 7 does not exhibit this problem on the same disk and Battle.net updates fine.
As this is on a limited space SSD, I don't have enough disk space to try this on ext4fs to see if the problem goes away or not. I do have another machine that does not exhibit this problem on ext4fs. The WoW installation is on FAT32 so I could easily test on Windows 7 with limited disk space.

--- Comment #1 from blc blc+wine@mail.vanade.com --- I'm going to mark this as invalid.
I tried a vanilla version of Wine to see if I can replicate and cannot.
Unfortunately after running the vanilla version of Wine, I can no longer replicate on staging.
As I cannot replicate, this will be hard to debug so I'll close.
