Error message when running an install.exe

In a terminal, I try to run an install program "swb32c100.exe"
ie:

[pat@pat .wine]swb32v100.exe
I see a progress window (horizonal progress bar) for a split second, then it goes away and I get the error message:

I have also tried:
[pat@pat .wine]msiexec swb32v100.exe[pat@pat .wine]wine swb32v100.exe[pat@pat .wine]wine msiexec swb32v100.exe
I get the same error message.
I am running Fedora 9 and Wine 1.1.5I'm assuming this message is from Wine?
Since I am running Fedora 9, I entered the following command:
$ sudo sysctl -w vm.mmap_min_addr=0
(per http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/AndreasBierfert/Wine)

No difference.

I am able to run Notepad OK.
From my windows box I copied 3 .dll's to my .wine directory and drive_c, and Program Files.
No difference.


Any ideas?

I must be misunderstanding something here.

As I said in my original post:

I have also tried:
[pat@pat .wine]msiexec swb32v100.exe
[pat@pat .wine]wine swb32v100.exe
[pat@pat .wine]wine msiexec swb32v100.exe

I get the same error message.

If anyone is interested in trying to do the install, the file can be found at:

SIP WORKBENCH 1.0.0 for Windows XP

[qwertymn]

this is a known (and annoying) bug in wine. Usually you could try a 'cabextract' on the executable, and the .msi file comes usually out (extracted), but here no msi file comes.

From a log i could see there should be a .msi file extraced somewhere in C:\\windows\\profiles\\yourname\\Application Data\\BreakPoint Software\\SIP Workbench v1\\install\\SIPWorkbench.msi
but that didin't work-> no such file.

If you really need install this application there's one work-around left: install with a very old wine-version ( i tried wine-0.9.32), and then it installs fine

I think it's this one: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9628

I tried making 0.9.32 and get the following errors

Is there a later version of signal_i386.c I should be using?

Good FSM that's old. Upgrade to 1.1.6 and try again. What distro are
you using, if .9.32 is current?

According to an earlier post there. is a bug in the current release that prevents my application from installing.

The previous poster tried installing my application on 0.9.32 and was successful.

You'll likely run have problems building (as you've seen). This may
help: http://wiki.winehq.org/ReverseRegressionTesting

Though, it'd be best to file a bug and have the installer bug fixed.
