Trouble with date (win application)

[sm-kons]

Good afternoon!
On Linux, Runtu 14 installed Wine version 1.8.
The Win-application starts, but there is a problem with displaying the date in one place in the program (the month is not displayed). The drop-down menu should display 12 items with months to select. Instead, there is emptiness
The developer of the program about the error responded as follows:
- "API is called Windows function. Wine does not handle it correctly; Apparently, the WinDi function GetDateFormat does not work correctly in WINE "
What could be the problem and how to solve it?

Start by upgrading Wine; 1.8 is over two years old and no longer supported. Use the WineHQ packages. https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu

Thx. Today I will try to install this version

I completed the installation of WineHQ according to the instructions. Now some symbols are displayed in the drop-down list, instead of the months of the year.
Installed Winetricks and added all fonts - no effect

Thx. Today I will try to install this version

There are 3 different Wine packages on the WineHQ Ubuntu webpage:

• winehq-stable
• winehq-devel
• winehq-staging

Which WineHQ Wine package / version did you install?

Also, what is the output from:

Code: Select all

locale

@sm-kons

Please can you provide a Wine terminal log, with the following debug flags:

Code: Select all

export WINEDEBUG=+timestamp,+tid,+nls,+font
strace wine ... ~/wine-stable-3.0.3_nls_font_log.txt

(obviously replace the ellipse ... with something more useful!)
That should provide enough information to go on.

Probably best to post this on a >>> Pastebin-type site (i.e. don't use >>> Pastebin itself!)
The log may be quite large!

Does the application work if you override the locale for Wine, to something else? I.e.:

Code: Select all

LANG=en_US.utf8 wine ...

You might need to have American English enabled, as a global secondary locale.

I tried to enter LANG = en_US.utf8, the result is the same
What to do specifically did not understand about the log, can I explain in more detail?

I want to clarify the application in Russian, and the drop-down list should display the month in Russian. Now there are only a few characters, the same in all positions.

See: WineHQ FAQ: 10.1.1 How can I get a debugging log (a.k.a. terminal output)?

Which covers both:

• how to launch a Windows application, using Wine, on the commandline.
• how to store a Wine terminal log form

Launched the application in this way:
WINEDEBUG=+timestamp,+tid,+nls,+font wine ... >> /home/user/logs/wine-stable-3.0.3_nls_font_log.txt 2>&1
I attach the log file in the archive https://www.pastefs.com/pid/79670
