Hi List,
I just installed wine from cvs as of this morning and am still having problems installing office. I get the following error when starting the installer with the msi debugging channel on:
fixme:msi:MsiEnableLogA 00000516 "c:\windows\temp\Office 2000 Professional Setup (0014)_MsiExec.txt" 00000000 trace:msi:MsiEnableLogW 00000516 L"c:\windows\temp\Office 2000 Professional Setup (0014)_MsiExec.txt" 00000000 trace:msi:MsiInstallProductA "/I" "" fixme:msi:MsiInstallProductW L"/I" L"" trace:msi:MsiVerifyPackageW L"/I" trace:msi:MsiOpenDatabaseW L"/I" (null) 0x4055fd78 trace:msi:MSI_OpenDatabaseW L"/I" (null) fixme:msi:MSI_OpenDatabaseW open failed r = 80004005! trace:msi:MsiCloseHandle 405aa5aa Installation of /I () failed.
Mike had suggested I not use the builtin msi.dll. Since no native msi system was installed, the office 2k installer to tried to install one resulting in the following error:
fixme:thread:NtSetInformationThread Set ThreadImpersonationToken handle to (nil) fixme:thread:NtSetInformationThread Set ThreadImpersonationToken handle to 0x50 err:ntdll:NtQueryInformationToken Unhandled Token Information class 8! fixme:thread:NtSetInformationThread Set ThreadImpersonationToken handle to 0x44 fixme:powermgnt:SetThreadExecutionState (0x80000001): stub, harmless. fixme:powermgnt:SetThreadExecutionState (0x80000000): stub, harmless. fixme:thread:NtSetInformationThread Set ThreadImpersonationToken handle to (nil) Installation of /i (REBOOT=REALLYSUPRESS) failed.
It is suprising to me that nobody else has reported this office 2k msi problem. I guess everyone is using OpenOffice these days :) I really don't use wine much, but I have been following its progress over the years and compile and test it once in a while. I am happy to do a little more debugging if someone wanted to give me some pointers. Thanks.
Cheers,
James
