Problem installing/connecting to Battle.net

[manoloo]

I'm running Wine 1.4.1 (the only version available at the main repo) on Debian Wheezy 64bit. Once I run the .exe that is supposed to properly setup and install battle.net, the screen hangs at "Starting Battle.net", where it tries to connect to the service but seems unable to do so.

Running through the terminal, this is what shows:

Code: Select all

fixme:heap:HeapSetInformation (nil) 1 (nil) 0
fixme:process:GetLogicalProcessorInformation (0x32edf0,0x32f3fc): stub
fixme:winhttp:WinHttpDetectAutoProxyConfigUrl discovery via DHCP not supported
fixme:wininet:InternetSetOptionW Option 77 STUB
err:wininet:open_http_connection create_netconn failed: 12029
fixme:process:GetLogicalProcessorInformation (0xcfce74,0xcfd480): stub

fixme:wininet:InternetSetOptionW Option 77 STUB
fixme:process:GetLogicalProcessorInformation (0xf9e3a0,0xf9e9ac): stub

And it keeps repeating that error 12029. Trying to run World of Warcraft straight from the .exe fails, giving a "streaming error" and asking to check my internet connection. I'm behind a proxy, but it doesn't block any IP that belongs to blizzard.
Also, this may or may not be related, but wineserver doesn't seem to be installing with wine.

Your Wine version is old and no longer supported. If there are no newer packages, you can build Wine yourself.

Also, this may or may not be related, but wineserver doesn't seem to be installing with wine.

Nothing would run at all in Wine if wineserver wasn't installed.

Managed to install 1.6.2 after adding the unstable repo to the sources.list. Still nothing, the same error, err:wininet:open_http_connection create_netconn failed: 12029, appears on the terminal when running the installer.
Also, Qt4Wine warned me that wineserver wasn't installed, that's why i said it seemed like that.

Q4Wine is not supported here; no third party app is. Retest in plain Wine.

that's what i did. What i said about q4t is that it was it that said i didn't have wineserver.

So, once again, i'm with wine 1.6.2, on debian wheezy 7.5, installed it from unstable repo (since stable only has 1.4.1), and still it won't connect to the internet.

Upgrade to the latest development release. There were bugs affecting battle.net that were marked fixed in 1.7.12 (bug 35181) and 1.7.14 (bug 33947). If your distro doesn't have a package you can build Wine yourself.

You want the wine-unstable package. If dependencies are a problem it's not too hard to build packages on a stable system.
