internet registering through wine

[[email protected]]

I have installed a CAD/CAM program call eCabinets (its a free program for woodworking and cabinet shops). When it starts, its asks for its registration code which I have. It then tries to open the default internet connections to register but eventually times out. By the looks of things, it its acting like a firewall is blocking it. I do not have a wirewall installed yet. I am running Ubuntu 8.10 with wine 1.1.11. I can hit the web through wine using Opera (installed with wine-doors)
using a net monitor, it gives me an IP address 216.49.xxx.xxx.
a different monitor show no traffic.
when I try to ping it, nothing.
I used another computer (windowsxp) and was able to rigister another copy (its free software). (its not on their end)

any clue for the noob?

Is there a download link available?

Please attach terminal output.

Off hand, try native wininet/winhttp.

The mfg does not have a link to download the software (over 500MB). Users are forced to request a disk from them. http://www.ecabinetsystems.com and click on the software request link and fill out a form. (its still free)

If by wininet you mean the winetricks wininet, I did install that. Otherwise I do not know what you mean.

I am not only a nood, but I am blind. I do not see a means of attaching the log. Its small.
sorry, I know this is not what you prefer.

Why it mentions Firebird Guardian.. I do not know. The program uses .mdb databases. I do have another program on the system that does use firebird. Its a Asset Management software.

[DanKegel]

I've requested a CD so I can check it out myself.

In the meantime, can you try installing it into a fresh .wine directory
(i.e. no native dlls)? If that doesn't work (and I'm assuming it won't),
please send me the log generated by reproducing the problem with WINEDEBUG=+wininet,+text,+winhttp
You'll want to redirect stdout and stderr to a file, and email the file
to [email protected]

[[email protected]]

Ok, I will give it a try.

before I do, I just wanted to make sure I understand what you mean by fresh .wine directory. (Really, I mean Noood)

If I clear the .wine dir, will that not mean I will loose all of the other stuff I have? It took me a few days to get the asset management software running and am an not sure if "Fresh .wine directory" will wipe that out.

I see the term "native dlls" used here and there. Does that mean using the .dll'd that come with the software?

btw.. Thanks for your help.

You can test in a temporary prefix, or move it away temporarily:
$ mv ~/.wine ~/.wine.bak
$ wine setup.exe # test again here
$ rm -rf ~/.wine # remove the test wineprefix
$ mv ~/.wine.bak ~/.wine

I see the term "native dlls" used here and there. Does that mean using the .dll'd that come with the software?

native dlls = dlls from windows/winetricks. Dan means don't do any
winetricks overrides/copy dlls from windows, etc. Just use plain wine.

Or just do "env WINEPREFIX="/home/username/tempwineprefix" wine setup.exe".

OK, I got the CD today. First off, the installer refuses
to run unless you install mfc42.dll. Then it crashes because
later on, it tries to install mfc42 itself, and gets an access
violation because it's already open.
This looks like http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11719
Haven't gotten to your problem yet.

Did you say the installer worked under Wine? What versin
of Wine, and what version of the installer?

[[email protected]]

No, the installer does not work fine. I have tried wine 1.1.9, 1.1.10 and 1.1.11 and I have tried these wines on Ubuntu 8.04, 8.10 and Fedora 10

There are two parts to the install.

The first part installs Acr32. Even though it says it failed, it is able to install it. You just have to ignore the fail statements and use the rest of the prompts. The only real issue by the end of this part is that half the time it does not put a menu item.

the eCabinet part runs for about 15 seconds and then says that the install was interupted.

These results occur when trying to run the installer from the auto-launch.

I get better results if you run from terminal as root. I end up installing about half of the winetricks before I start.

allfonts, comctl32, comctl32.ocx, controlpad, dotnet20, fm20, fontfix, gdiplus, gecko, jet40, mdac25-27, mfc40 msi2, msscript, riched30, vb6run, vcrun6-2008, wsh56, wsh56vb, ie6.

You may also have to copy the manifests from the window\winSxS\manifests\*.VC80.CRT and .MFC*

I realize that this is a shotgun, but it seems to help. I also install some wine-doors like opera.

At the end of the install, it may or may not say the install was fine. Files will be transfered, but not all of them. I usually end up copying all then dll's from a good windows install to dir in Ubuntu.

Sometimes they say to run the daoinstall.exe which installs jet 3.5 and something I can not remember off the top of my head. (per their forum)

You will also need to make user odbc with the ms access driver is installed.

I did a fresh install without installing the wininet trick and was able to connect with the reg server, but from there I was in a loop with the system saying that the version I had expired, but it could not download the new version (5.2 build 4 now available since the 13th) I manually downloaded the file but could not run the .exe.

This is as far as I can get.

I have also attempted to use a program call installrite. From a fresh windows machine, it monitors the install process keeping track of the filed that are moved (added, deleted or modified) and it also keeps track of registry changes. Once done, it compile the changes into an .exe. I can run that in ubuntu, but it does not seem to help. I did this to make sure I got all of the registry modifications.

On occation, when I try to run the program, I will get a blank window to open, but that is all.

Never, never, never run Wine as root.

Now that this is out. Is there a demo/test version and have you submitted a bug report for this product?

I may have mis-spoke, so please let me restate a few things. I have followed the install of wine and wine-doors per the web-sites. Wine installs through the package managers in Ubuntu and Fedora.

The software is called eCabinets which is a specialized CAD for woodworkers and cabinet makers. The install is over 500 MB so the mfg, Thermwood, does not offer it for download. You can get updates from the web, but you must request a install cd. The program is FREE. Dan kegel has received his copy today.

This is what I have attempted to troubleshoot this. Please remember I am a nood and might miss something that is obvious to you. So please forgive me.

1. Install using the installer on the cd results in Adobe reader and eCabinets failing. Running setup.exe from terminal (as me) results with a FDICopy fails. This is reported in Bugzilla as case 16551. This issue looks like the same as a few others that have been reported like Quickbooks and COD and I think some MS office item like Outlook.

2. Running the setup as root gives me more (different) information which allows me to get further in the install process. (please see the other posts for detailes)

Right or wrong, it gets me that much closer. I have gotten to a point where I can enter a registration code and it will (intermittantly) connect to the reg server. (I thinks that wininet is the issue) If it does connect, it tells me that the version I have has expired and I need to download a new version. Downloading from there fails. Manually downloading and running the .exe fails.

Rock and a hard place.

Allthough I get slightly different results between Ubuntu and Fedora, I can not get any further than stated above.

Running from the desktop like a typical end user, running with terminal and command lines as me$ or as root# still end with failure.

I think at this point I am just getting a cascade of errors that I need expert help with. Once the first one, FDICopy fails, issue is take care of, everything else might call in place. If not, I have a good idea on what I might have to do with others that might appear. missing dll, odbc setup and manifests.

thanks,

John.

I figured I better give an update. I have attempted to install my ecabinets program in an updated Ubunto 8.04 and wine 1.1.13. (fresh)

The program install has improved, but its not yet there. It finishes the install on its own and lays down icons like it should. Now when I launch the program the cursor flashes a few time, then nothing. when launching the program from terminal I get this reg dump:

This is greek to me.

When I run the install from terminal it errors out with this:
err:msi:msi_cabextract FDICopy failed
err:msi:ACTION_InstallFiles Failed to extract cabinet: L"Data1.cab"
err:msi:ITERATE_Actions Execution halted, action L"InstallFinalize" returned 1627

This is as it was in previous attempts as reported to Bugzilla.

The only other thing is that I can not longer get to the point of registrations or updates.

I hope someone might have an idea on what I might be missing.

Thank, John
