Bug ID: 37830
           Summary: SteuerSparErklärung 2015: Installing with the
                    "USB-Installation" method fails
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.6.2
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown

Created attachment 50377
  --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=50377
Terminal output (fixme+all,err+all)

Background:
===========

SteuerSparErklärung (SSE) is a german tax program. It offers a "portable"
installation method called "USB-Installation". Beneath the installation on a
flash drive, this method especially targets a privacy oriented installation. If
no external flash drive is connected, the internal hard drive is used, but the
program is installed to a separate folder (i.e. not in "Program Files") and no
registry entries are made.

Bug description:
================

I've put translations in [brackets].

The installation of SSE 2015 with the "USB-Installation" method fails. The
installer displays an error message: 
  Fehler bei der Installation [Installation error]
  Path not found
  (Fehler code: 3) [Error code]
  Die Installation von SteuerSparErklärung 2015 Portable wird abgebrochen. [The
installation of "SteuerSparErklärung 2015 Portable" is getting cancelled."]

I attached the terminal output (fixme+all,err+all).

Further information:
====================

It doesn't matter if a USB flash drive is connected (and seen in wine as drive
E:) or not. Not connecting one is perfectly ok under windows.

SSE2015 officially supports WinXP.

The following line is only shown for this installation method, but not for the
default (no idea if it is relevant):
fixme:mountmgr:harddisk_ioctl Unsupported ioctl 2d1400 (device=2d access=0
func=500 method=0)

If I try with wine as Win7 I additionally get these lines (again not claiming
that they are important):
fixme:shell:SHGetLocalizedName L"C:\users" 0x33f2da 260 0x33f2cc: stub
fixme:shell:SHGetLocalizedName L"C:\users\jens" 0x33f2da 260 0x33f2cc: stub
fixme:shell:SHGetLocalizedName L"C:\users\jens\My Documents" 0x33f2da 260
0x33f2cc: stub
fixme:shell:SHGetLocalizedName L"C:\users\jens\My
Documents\Steuerf\00e4lle" 0x33f2da 260 0x33f2cc: stub

So far I could not find a workaround. For other reasons I normally use
"winetricks crypt32 riched20 vcrun2013" for SSE 2015.

System:
=======

Debian GNU/Linux 8.0 "Jessie" x86_64 + Debian's wine-development 1.7.33-1.
New, clean wineprefix.
The problem also exists under wine 1.6.2 and other distros (Arch Linux x86_64,
Peppermint Five).

Anastasius, thanks for the quick analysis.

While I trust your analysis that this prevents SSE from detecting a USB device,
I'm unsure if this is what causes my problem here. The program states that it
couldn't detect a USB device (= #21448) - but it doesn't error out on this.
Instead it states that it will install to drive C now, which I think should
still work.

On the other side it just claims so (the thin written under the progress bar
states "..., Entferne Dateien [Deleting files], Kopiere Dateien [Copying
files], Erstelle Verknüpfungen (Creating links), ..." and just then errors
out), but no files show up in drive C.

Besides that it also happens with no USB device at all connected, and with a
USB device formatted as vfat.

So do you think that the installation routine for USB_Installation when
*installing to drive C* differs from the one in Express-Installation and is hit
by #21448 in any case?

Please note that I still havn't changed the bug status, that's up to you.

thanks
jre

Hello jre,

drive 'C:' is a fallback choice, yes (the app states it in the message).
> From logical point of view it doesn't make sense to execute a USB/portable

installation directly to the main hard-drive since this violates Windows design
guidelines for software installations.
Instead I would expect the installer to fall back to standard MSI based setup
routine.

Please test with a real Windows and force the USB portable installer part to
drive "C:" (instead of the USB stick).

If it really puts a fully working portable installation on "C:", I'd
de-duplicate the bug again, tracking this problem.

Regards

Hi Anastasius

Tested on Windows 7: it works. The USB-Installation (to drive "C:") succeeds,
and StartCenter.exe from drive "C:" can be executed and starts SSE.

I've reset the bug status to "unconfirmed" and added bug #21448 in the AppDB as
affecting SSE2015.

as far as I can see this is still a problem in SteuerSparErklärung 2018 (Wine
3.11).
