DLL Version Stamp Problem

[Mike Kost]

Framemaker 7.0 installs fine on Wine but pops up an error message that it
can't properly determine the version of one of it's dll's (actual error
message = "The version stamp is missing from the Framemaker resource file
C:\Program Files\Adobe\FrameMaker7.0\fminit\fmres.dll"). After poking at
the  specific dll (fmres.dll), it has no version information.

Does anyone have experience with the Wine/Windows version stamp reading
functions (I've seen code references to 'GetFileVersionInfo(<stuff>)') or
any advice on debugging further. I've hit the limits of my knowledge.

Thanks,

Send an url to a compressed (bzip2 -9) log (+relay). That would be a good
start.

Dimitry,

During my lunch, I reran the experiment at work on the latest codeweavers
release (2.1). I posted the file to
http://www.tashcorp.net/Wine/dll.txt.bz2. The functional result is the
same between the code weavers and Wine 20040121, but if this is a problem
I'll repeat the run next chance I get at home.

Command invocation:
/opt/cxoffice/bin/wine -debugmsg +relay,+loaddll --
~/.cxoffice/dotwine/fake_windows/Program\
Files/Adobe/FrameMaker7.0/FrameMaker.exe 2> dll.txt

I also uploaded a referenced maker.ini file. It's bz2'ed at
http://www.tashcor.net/Wine/maker.ini.bz2

Try to make the directory "C:\Program Files\Adobe\FrameMaker7.0"
current before running FrameMaker.exe.

I invoked FrameMaker with:
cd ~/cxoffice/dotwine/fake_windows/Program\ Files/Adobe/FrameMaker7.0
/opt/cxoffice/bin/wine -debugmsg +relay,+loaddll -- FrameMaker.exe 2>
dll2.txt

There was no noticable change in the functional result. The
+loaddll,+relay error log has been posted to
http://www.tashcorp.net/Wine/dll2.txt.bz2
