[Bug 12477] New: NBC Direct installer requires installation of Windows Installer 3.1 redist
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12477
Summary: NBC Direct installer requires installation of Windows Installer 3.1 redist Product: Wine Version: CVS/GIT Platform: PC URL: http://www.nbc.com/Video/NBCDirectInstaller.exe OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: nodisgod@yahoo.com
Created an attachment (id=12038) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=12038) Microsoft Dynamics GP installer comparision screenshot
Using current Git, when the NBC Direct installer is run, it attempts to satisfy certain prerequisites for NBC Direct, one of which is the Windows Installer 3.1. Due to bugs 5351 and 10698, the Windows Installer 3.1 redist cannot be installed. The NBC Direct installer's requirement of installing Windows Installer 3.1 seemingly shouldn't happen, since when unrelated application Microsoft Dynamics GP demo (from http://www.microsoft.com/dynamics/gp) is run, it detects Microsoft Windows Installer 3.1 prerequisite as already installed. No relevant output is noted.

--- Comment #1 from Yolande Haneder yolande@haneder.biz 2008-04-10 07:09:16 --- I have this prerequisite too, however, for instance the case of .NET 2 it seems rather to be checking the version of msi.dll rather than the installation of the installer. On some applications, the installer is crashing but after copying the required files and on subsequent times it's seen as installed.

--- Comment #2 from Yolande Haneder yolande@haneder.biz 2008-04-10 07:39:54 --- If you want to test if Microsoft Dynamics GP demo really gets the installation of 3.1 through, use winetrick to install the windows installer 2.0 and then launch this application. It's very likely that the installation will start this time and crash (as it would have had anyway).

--- Comment #3 from James Hawkins truiken@gmail.com 2008-04-10 12:48:25 --- Don't steer this bug into 'blocked by not being able to install windows installer 3.1'. This particular installer is looking for certain characteristics that identify the installer msi as 3.1 that we don't provide. What are those characteristics? This is an easy class of bug to fix, so please take some time looking through the +file +reg and +ver channels to see what it's looking for.

--- Comment #4 from scguy318 nodisgod@yahoo.com 2008-04-17 20:34:44 --- With a bit of recent downtime, I was able to find that the PSetup.exe utility that checks for prerequisites looks for the existence of registry key "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID{000C101D-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}\DllVersion" with default value set to 3.1.4000. Adding the key and setting that default value causes the check for Windows Installer 3.1 to pass and thus the requirement for installing it is eliminated.

--- Comment #6 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com 2008-12-23 15:20:35 --- In current git, the installer wants mdac28 and dotnet20. Installing those with winetricks, it then complains it needs wmp10. After that, crashes on launch saying it's missing a resource. I didn't test further, as I've got a suspicion the program changed on their end.

I suggest to close this one. The original problem is no more present/reproducible in the installer versions currently available.
For the resource crash you might file a new bug report. It's a bug in VM write watch handling code which was recently added and probably affects more .NET apps.
