InstallShield and ole question...
by Mike Bond 27 Apr '01

27 Apr '01

Quick brief, I've been lurking for quite some time around WineHQ and the wine project, but don't really have time for putting a lot of devel into it. It seems wine is finally getting close enough to working for most things that I can put some time into tracking problems without gobbling up many hours. All that said, I've been trying to get some InstallShield v6 based installers to work with wine without much success. I've tried various combinations of builtin and native versions of the ole related dlls, each configuration with it's own hitches. With a mostly 'native' configuration, I get the 0x80070008 (ERROR_NOT_ENOUGH_MEMORY) error when trying to load IKernel.exe. I did not spend a lot of time with this as 'builtin' really is the prefered method anyway. With a completely 'builtin' configuration for the various ole dlls, I get the dreaded 0x80070005 (ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED) when trying to load IKernel.exe that others have reported on the list in the past. After persuing this a bit, I found that the problems seems to lie in the fact that CoGetClassObject in compobj.c does not have CLSCTX_LOCAL_SERVER implemented, which InstallShield is trying to use when starting up the "InstallShield setup kernel" via CoCreateInstance. My question, is anyone currently working on implementing CLSCTX_LOCAL_SERVER in compobj.c:CoGetClassObject, or have plans to work on this in the near future? If not, I may go back to trying to figure out what is happening with the 'native' configuration. -- TTFN MikeB

AVI resource in shell32.dll
by Stefan Leichter 27 Apr '01

27 Apr '01

Hi all, during debugging an installer (of Wiso Homebanking Try&Buy Version from Buhl Data) i found that native shell32.dll contains at least one AVI resource (the magnifier that is spinning in front of a computer) that is not implemented in the buildin shell32.dll. I have looked around in the source tree of wine but i did not find any resource from typ AVI. Now my questions: Is someone working on an implementation of avi resources into the buildin dlls? If not, what needs to be done to start implementing avi resources into the dlls? Bye Stefan

fault handling - oof
by lawson_whitney＠juno.com 26 Apr '01

26 Apr '01

Good day! One or all of these 3 patches has somehow broken fault hanlding for my mail app. As I seem to have it sort of working again, I wanted to get out a warning, and sorry I can't be more specific yet. The app also doesn't like to be forced to use a local phone number that is not in its current list but still works. I can't blame it, but I am damned if I will have it adding $.05 to my phone bill every time I send or get mail. I got what looked like a recursive page fault somewhere in startup/fixup_imports until I reverted all 3. It _might_ be a local misconfiguration, so don't waste too much time on it, but if you spot something that could be a bit wrong in one of these patches, please let me know. N 1 Apr 23 Alexandre Julliard (2,414) wine/dlls/msvcrt time.c N 2 Apr 23 Alexandre Julliard (2,089) wine/include/msvcrt stddef.h N 3 Apr 23 Alexandre Julliard (2,071) wine/debugger types.c I can't see how it could be any of them, but I guess it must be stddef.h. The app insists so far on native msvcrt. I keep hoping that will change. Regards, Lawson ---cut here ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

Unfortunately I had already tried that, first thing that came to mind once I realized what was going on. -- TTFN MikeB

dll-separated lzexpand doesn't work
by Ove Kaaven 26 Apr '01

26 Apr '01

At least not on debian unstable... I've tracked the problem down to: lzexpand_main.c, function LZCopy, line 525: xread=(_readfun)LZRead; assembles as: movl LZRead@GOT(%ebx),%edx movl %edx,-1012(%ebp) so it reads out the address of LZRead out of the GOT. The final result in liblz32.so becomes: 5eb7: 8b 93 44 00 00 00 mov 0x44(%ebx),%edx 5ebd: 89 95 0c fc ff ff mov %edx,0xfffffc0c(%ebp) but because of the -symbolic linker switch, there's no such GOT entry. CRASH! The GOT entry for LZRead should be at 00007d64 in the dynamic relocation table, as far as I can tell from objdump and peeking at the GOT, but in the relocation table there's only this... ... 00007d60 R_386_GLOB_DAT __dso_handle 00007d68 R_386_GLOB_DAT __deregister_frame_info ... What can be done about this? Submit bug reports on ld?

Using config.status to recreate current setup
by Matthew Cline 26 Apr '01

26 Apr '01

According to the comments at the start of config.status, I can run that file to recreate the current setup. However, if I use it, it appears to delete the makefile in wine/dlls/wintrust, causing "make depend" to fail; if I just copy the configure command that config.status has and run that on the command line, everything works fine. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks in advance. -- Matthew Cline | Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose that matt(a)nightrealms.com | you were a member of Congress.

Hmm, do we really want to do this ? (I know it's already been applied) Shouldn't we create a different SYSLEVEL_CheckNotLevel_unenforced() function instead which simply doesn't call DebugBreak() ? That way we don't lose the important information about possible syslevel violations. Syslevel violations are an *ongoing* problem. They are not simply "solved". OTOH I could take Alexandre's cvs commit as his firm promise to go through every future patch line by line to check for syslevel mishaps/omissions ;-) Oh yeah, and in case you didn't notice: it's me again complaining about yet another silencing ;-) This patch is not even "too early", it's simply "wrong" IMHO, as it is an ongoing problem (I did mention this before, didn't I ? :). Sorry for me being of such an opposing nature ;-) -- Andreas Mohr Stauferstr. 6, D-71272 Renningen, Germany Tel. +49 7159 800604 http://home.germany.net/100-30936/
