Summary: New wine build 20040813 will not install InstMsiA.exe from Microsoft. Product: Wine Version: 20040813 Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: test AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: gregrogers@mchsi.com CC: gregrogers@mchsi.com
Using Wine 20040716 I was able to install InstMsiA.exe for MSI support for loading a windows program (UD_Agent)to wine/Linux. I was able to load the program (UD_Agent)and make it mostly work. I upgraded, Well I thought, to wine 20040813 and low and behold I could not install the InstMsiA.exe for msi support with wine. InstMsiA.exe is the microsoft version for windows 98. I reverted back to wine 20040716 and was able to install msi support again. NOTE: I tried installing the windows program (UD_Agent)without InstMsiA.exe loaded (wine alone) and was unable to do so, the error reported that it did not seem msi support was available for loading this program.
