'Setup cannot find necessary files' message
'Setup cannot find necessary files' message
Running Wine 1.0.1 in Ubuntu 9.10, trying to install FileMaker Pro 9 from CD. (Install from this CD works fine on Windows machine.)
'Setup cannot find necessary files' message appears when launching setup.exe with Wine.
WINEDEBUG=+loaddll on setup.exe gives the output below; looks like all needed .dlls are there.
Same problem reported on Ubuntu forums earlier in 2009 by another user: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.p ... 83015.html
Suggestions for a work-around would be very welcome!

Re: 'Setup cannot find necessary files' message
Hi Vitamin.
No difference after deleting .wine and reinstalling.
The Windows error msg is a small window with 'Setup Error' in the title bar. There's a big red X in the pane and this exact message: 'Setup cannot find the necessary files.'
Below that is an 'OK' button which closes the window. No option to learn which files are needed.
(This is why I migrated to Linux years ago. Windows is built to be unhelpful. Now if only sqlite3 had FMP's friendliness...)

Hi, vitamin.
Have I got the usage right? In the 'fake' CD directory,
WINEDEBUG=warn+all setup.exe
returns 'setup.exe command not found' and without a file argument, nothing is returned.

Re: 'Setup cannot find necessary files' message
Getting somewhere? Apart from a lot of font and keyboard warnings, there's a repeated complaint that 'user.exe16' can't be found anywhere (debug looked on the CD and in the various WINE directories on my hard drive.
The closest name-matches I can find are in /usr/lib/wine:
gdi.exe16
krnl386.exe16

File not found messages. Don't pay attention to Wine looking for each dll in every directory - those are fine and eventually found.fmp_user wrote:Are there specific messages I should look for in the output that might explain 'Setup cannot find the necessary files'?
Re: 'Setup cannot find necessary files' message
Hi, vitamin.
Many thanks for the pointer. There are dozens of warn:ntdll not found msgs but I'm not sure how to interpret them. For example,
warn:module:load_builtin_dll cannot open .so lib for builtin L"krnl386.exe16": /usr/bin/../lib/wine/krnl386.exe16.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

There is definitely a krnl386.exe16 in /usr/lib/wine, but not a shared object library krnl386.exe16.so. Does that matter?
There are also lots of warn:font and warn:keyboard msgs I assume I can ignore. The only other msgs seem to be version warnings

Re: 'Setup cannot find necessary files' message
No, Wine will look for a dll in many places failing to find it until it looks in it's library directory (last place to look). So all those are harmless if it's Wine's own dll.fmp_user wrote:There is definitely a krnl386.exe16 in /usr/lib/wine, but not a shared object library krnl386.exe16.so. Does that matter?

Now this is a problem. c0000022 is STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED which might mean whatever your d: drive mapped to doesn't have enough access rights.

Re: 'Setup cannot find necessary files' message
The installation CD appears in .wine/dosdevices/d:, which is a link to a block device and has brw-rw---- permissions.
There are actually 2 setup.exe files on the installation CD. One is a 40kb DOS/Windows executable which returns the 'Setup cannot find the necessary files' msg when opened with WINE. It's -rw-r--r--.
The main setup and data files are in a directory on the CD called 'files'. There seem to be 3 installation files here: setup.exe (103kb), iassist.exe (248kb) and instmsiw.exe (1.7mb). All are shown as -r-x------.
The warning msg you point to refers to the 'files' setup.exe. Nothing at all happens when I try to open any of these with WINE, i.e. no read of the CD (no whirring noise from the CD drive).

Hi, James.
Not sure what you're saying. The real mount in Ubuntu 9.10 is /dev/disk and here too the permissions are brw-rw----.

Re: 'Setup cannot find necessary files' message
To make things easier (???) I burned an .iso of the CD and extracted it to my hard drive. All files still have the same permissions, of course, and I get the same behaviour as when they're on the CD: the un-directoried setup.exe returns the 'cannot find' msg with WINE, and nothing happens at all when I try to open the files/setup.exe with WINE. chmod does nothing, just says these are read-only.
Re: 'Setup cannot find necessary files' message
Another try: prowling through the CD I found an .msi called filemaker pro 9.msi (note spaces). Another fail:

Re: 'Setup cannot find necessary files' message
More possibly diagnostic info for anyone still interested in this problem:
1. On the chance that 'filemaker pro 9.msi' wanted Windows Installer but couldn't find it, I made sure that WI 2 was in both Windows/Installer and /system32. When I then double-clicked on 'filemaker pro 9.msi', something happened! I got a Windows Installer msg saying "Incorrect command line parameters".
2. On my Linux box I can't read the setup.ini file on the CD for some reason. On a Windows machine I opened it in Notepad and got the product code and package code listed in setup.ini. I notice that msiexec has an option
msiexec {package|productcode} [property]
but I don't understand how to read this. Does it mean literally put the package and product codes between curly brackets with a pipe between? And what is '[property]'?

2. On my Linux box I can't read the setup.ini file on the CD for some reason. On a Windows machine I opened it in Notepad and got the product code and package code listed in setup.ini. I notice that msiexec has an option
msiexec {package|productcode} [property]
but I don't understand how to read this. Does it mean literally put the package and product codes between curly brackets with a pipe between? And what is '[property]'?

Sounds like incorrectly mastered CD. Disable rock-ridge extension when mounting this CD and try again.fmp_user wrote: On my Linux box I can't read the setup.ini file on the CD for some reason.

Hi, vitamin.
Good thinking! isoinfo returned a 'BAD RRVERSION' msg, so I mounted the CD with the norock option and all went well - until...
FileMaker Pro tried to set up the install wizard and failed with WINE configured as XP. I'm guessing this is because the installer in WINE is MSI 2.0, and for XP FMP requires the MSI 3.0 installer.
I tried downgrading WINE to 2000 and ME, and got a msg that FMP 9 doesn't work on these earlier versions of Windows!
Looking in the setup.ini on the CD I find
[SupportOS] ;Supported platforms for MSI 2.0
Win95=1
Win98=1
WinME=1
WinNT4SP6=1
Win2K=1
[SupportOSMsi30] ;Supported platforms for MSI 3.0
Win2KSP3=1
WinXP=1
Win2003Server=1
Too bad I can't edit that file...

Use winetricks to install that stuff, don't install it directly - in most cases it won't work.fmp_user wrote:I tried downgrading WINE to 2000 and ME, and got a msg that FMP 9 doesn't work on these earlier versions of Windows!

Codeweavers has given up on FileMaker Pro 9
http://www.codeweavers.com/compatibilit ... pp_id=3635
and so have I. I've rebuilt the database I built last week in FMP9 on a Windows machine as a Kexi database (KOffice app running under Gnome). For what I want, Kexi's just fine.
Many thanks for the help in jumping the hurdles, tho.
