[Fwd: Problems installing IE6]

[Joaquín Fernández]

Hello

I am trying to install IE6 in wine but i can't. When the installer is over 70% then stop and not
advance. I have made a clean fake disk the three times, i probed with WINEDLLOVERRIDES for each dll
used by IE installation, i use winedebug for seeking an error but no error, the installer is
refreshing the windows without errors but don't advance.

I am using wine version 20040914 from CVS compiled in Mandrake 10.0 with cooker updates. I am not
using config file because the wineprefixcreate don't make the file and i have seen that wine use now
several parameters in the registry.

I tryied the 3 methods in frankscorner.org but nothing, the first method using a script can't
install it. When i probed the second and third method i made a simple config file with [Version] &
[DllOverrides] sections only, but nothing, the program don't terminate the installation, stop after
70% (the % change between intents:70,73,76,81,96, etc) and only refresh the screen (i suppose that
because the labels in form are blinking).

Somebody can help me?

Joaquín

P.D.: I don't need IE6 but i need MDAC and MDAC need IE>=4. If somebody know how to install DAO
components without installing IE, i am interested in a reply.

IIRC this is caused by the IE installer overwriting regedit.exe via the 
symlink in the virtual windows drive with a PE equivalent, which Wine 
then fails to parse and the install deadlocks.

I'm not sure how to solve this in the code, but for now Joaquin I'd 
recommend reinstalling Wine itself, making sure all the Wine files 
wherever you installed them to are read only, and the trying to install 
IE again.

Hello Mike, thanks for answering. When the install stop, you can press the cancel button and the 
installation abort, so the install can process the events in the form. When abort, i can run regedit 
without problems, so i think that the problem is not regedit. Today probed with IE5 & IE5.5 and 
nothing, i can't install IE.

Any others ideas?

P.D.: I compiled & installed wine using root account, and run wine with an user account, very 
restringed in privileges, so the user don't have permission for write in the wine installation 
directory. I can run other programs but can not install IE so wine installation is not problem, i think.

In that case I'm afraid no, I don't have any other ideas. You'll have to 
debug it to find out why it's stopping.

I tryied to debug using WINEDEBUG=warn+all,relay and i get the follow lines (after 1.500.000 lines 
;) and just when the installer progress bar stop):

Hello,

i have installed ie6 (SP1)some minutes ago on completely fresh wine enviroment 
with installed dcom98 using cvs from 2 hours ago. I have a german version 
from a cdrom.

Here is what i did:

1. mv ~/.wine ~/.wine-old
2. wine --version (create the new environment)
3. create ~/.wine/config with:
--------------------------------------
WINE REGISTRY Version 2

[DllOverrides]
"ole32" = "native"
--------------------------------------
4. wine dcom98.exe
5. change ~/.wine/config to:
--------------------------------------
WINE REGISTRY Version 2

[DllOverrides]
"advapi32" = "builtin"
"comctl32" = "builtin"
--------------------------------------
6. wine ie6setup.exe

Install Mozilla ActiveX Control then and run wineboot. (i did not check this 
two steps)

Bye Stefan

Thanks a lot, Stefan, i was able to install IE6, but i don't understand. I made this steps before 
post in this list:

1) rm ~/.wine
2) wineprefixcreate
3) WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ole32=n" wine dcom98.exe
4) WINEDLLOVERRIDES="advapi32=b;comctl32=b" wine ie6setup.exe

and never finish the installation.

What's the difference?????
i don't understand!!!!!!!!

Regards

Joaquín

Is WINEDLLOVERRIDES pronounced "Wined Lover Rides" ? ;-)
