I then tried --debugmsg +reg to see what it was sensing, but then the familiar old race condition reared its ugly head: "Error Number: 0x80040706 Description: Object reference not set Setup will now terminate"
This is normally generated by InstallShield... why do you say it's a race condition?
Because it comes and goes depending on how much --debugmsg logging I select. Could be some other kind of bug, too, I just jumped to a conclusion.
I've been wanting to investigate that error for a while, in fact I'm going to poke an installshield Marcus sent me this afternoon.
Thanks! It has happened for most real things I've tried to install, off and on, for the last year.
Can someone with more Wine juju than me have a look at http://209.190.80.19/trial/CW2003demo.exe and see how far off Wine is from supporting it?
Yikes! It's 20mb! That's going to take most of the day to download :(
No rush! The bug's been around for ages, it can wait a day to be fixed :-) - Dan
