FDIIsCabinet issue

[mikemrh9]

Hi

I am trying to install a sound analysis program (BatScan) under wine, using the command

wine baton_batscan_setup.exe

The Installshield splash shows up for half a second or so, then in the console I get

err:cabinet:FDICopy FDIIsCabinet failed

There are no other errors reported in the console.

I had a clean (fresh .wine directory) installation of wine, using wine 1.3.4-1 and wine_gecko 1.1.0-1 (I also had the same issue with earlier versions of wine).

The program (Batscan) installs and runs fine under Windows XP (which I have running in a virtual machine).

I successfully installed Word 2007 (after the failed attempt to install Batscan) under wine on the same PC.

If anybody has any suggestions as to where I could look to troubleshoot this issue, then that would be much appreciated.

Thanks
Mike.

The warning you saw is not necessarily an error.

Does the installer run to completion?

Does the app run?

Hi.

Thanks for getting back to me. The installer doensn't actually start. I get the InstallShield splash screen, then nothing. I've just checked it out with 'ps aux' and the setup program is sleeping in the foreground (S+).

The output from 'ps aux' is as follows

mike 10801 0.0 0.4 1608392 8792 pts/2 S+ 20:45 0:00 baton_batscan_setup.exe

I have waited 3-4 minutes from this point, but whatever the process is waiting for doesn't seem to happen.

Open a bug in bugzilla and attach output of:

Code: Select all

WINEDEBUG=+cabinet wine baton_batscan_setup.exe

Also try with native cabinet.dll.
