Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

Using Wine 1.2 and Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid) Trying to install ispq9.msi by using msiexec /i ispq9.msi as user from a terminal. The installer never opens and the output from the terminal was emailed to users@winehq, who suggested I file a bug. The file installs iSpQ a video conferencing program from NanoCorp. Thanks.

Could you please attach the output from the terminal here?
To get it in a text file you can run
msiexec /i ispq9.exe &> ~/output.txt which will save in your Home folder

I was told by winehq that the Desktop where the ispq9.msi folder is
located is not part of Wine fake C drive. Should I move it elsewhere
and try again. Tks. Bob

Is there an available download link for the installer? Does installing dotnet20 with winetricks help?

No that shouldn't be a problem.
Is there a download location?
You should probably report a bug at http://bugs.winehq.org/ providing the terminal output you've given here since it appears to be a bug in wine.
If you do that, please post the bug number back here.

    OK. I'm a newbie so I may have trouble posting all the info with the
bug but will do my best. As for a download location, I assume you mean
on Ubuntu. It's on the desktop. Will be back with the bug number soon.
How long does it take to get these things resolved generally?
Thanks Bob

I'm afraid it's not easy to tell how long fixing it will take, it could be fixed in the next release in 2 weeks or it could take much longer.
In the mean time: what do you need to use the program for?
Have you found out if there are Linux alternatives?

         Well, I use it as a video conferencing program and it isn't
critical but is something I use a lot in Windows XP If I get ispq9.msi
to install, I hope never to go back to windows. Haven't found Linux
alternatives but will keep looking. Thanks for you help and patience
too. Bob

There's two problems I noticed:

The installer tries to check for the presence of Windows Media Player 9 by checking the DLL version of wmp9.dll. This doesn't seem to work, even after installing wmp9 from winetricks.

When the installer fails to detect Windows Media Player 9, it should display a request for the user to download the WMP9 redist, but instead the installer fails silently.

Hacking the installer by removing the launch condition check allows installation to proceed.

After installing wmp9 the problem seems to be:

0038:Call KERNEL32.FindFirstFileW(001442d0 L"C:\\windows\\system32\\WMP.DLL|wmp.dll",0032ecec) ret=681e5d06
0038:Ret KERNEL32.FindFirstFileW() retval=ffffffff ret=681e5d06

I think wine's FindFirstFileW cannot handle something like "WMP.DLL|wmp.dll"

A very sad hack like below makes the installer start and finish fine for me. I'll try to add some tests to wine's testsuite to show this problem
