I think, I found a regression in msi (0.9.3 -> 0.9.4). When I launch Syberia's setup.exe there was 87: "fixme:ole:ITypeInfo_fnRelease destroy child objects", displayed InstallShield Wizard with empty progress bar and stuck. Than I tryed morrowind - again 87: "fixme:ole:ITypeInfo_fnRelease destroy child objects", displayed InstallShield Wizard with two filled sells in progress bar and stuck with that: err:ole:marshal_object object doesn't expose interface {be6115a1-7de5-48dc-ad2a-25060e00fce2}, failing with error 0x80004002 err:ole:ClientIdentity_QueryMultipleInterfaces IRemUnknown_RemQueryInterface failed with error 0x80004002 err:ole:marshal_object object doesn't expose interface {be6115a1-7de5-48dc-ad2a-25060e00fce2}, failing with error 0x80004002 err:ole:ClientIdentity_QueryMultipleInterfaces IRemUnknown_RemQueryInterface failed with error 0x80004002 Than I tryed Evil Islands - exactly the same. All this apps installed in previous versions.
Sorry For My English and if I posted in wrong place || wrong time, or if I'm wrong.
I've been having problems with most installers as well, and noted that there were (at least) two things I had to do to get them to work at all:
1) normally I run with LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.utf8 on my system, but to get installers and other things to work with wine (especially input field type stuff) I have to run wine as "LC_ALL=C wine". I suspect IMM problems are the reason for this, but haven't tracked it down.
2) for some reason I cannot install onto my FAT partition. I have /mnt/dose mapped in Wine as e:\ (oddly enough), and if I try to install _anything_ onto it, it fails shortly after the first file or two gets copied. _But_ if I install to my wine-drive (~/.wine/drive_c mapped as c:) then all works just fine. This is rather annoying as my home drive is getting low on space and installing large game demos for wined3d testing (which I normally put on e:) suck up a lot of space.
So Sergei: try installing to a Linux partition, and run wine with your locale set to C (or POSIX I imagine), and see if that helps.
