cannot access dot files

[fernan82]

I got the "Show dot files" option enabled in winecfg and I'm running Visual Source Safe 6 (I know it sucks but I got old repositories I need access to) and when adding files to a project I can see and select the dot files from the dialog but when I try to add them I get "Error reading from file"

This only happens with dot files.

Wine version? If it's not the latest development release, upgrade. If the problem persists, post terminal output. http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log

Thanks for the reply and sorry for taking so long. I've been real busy and I'm barely using VSS anymore so I kept forgetting about this.
The wine version is 1.6.2 installed from Gentoo's portage system.
There's no terminal output at all when the problem happens. I only get one message when I start SourceSafe and nothing after that. Here it is:

Code: Select all

fixme:ole:RemUnknown_QueryInterface No interface for iid {00000019-0000-0000-c000-000000000046}

Actually it appears that this has nothing to do with the filename but it has something to do with the file encoding. I just tried to add a text file (SQL script) to a VSS project and got the same error. I've been able to add unix files in the past from windows without problems so it only happens in wine.

I've also noticed that the diff feature in VSS detects all files as binary so I cant get a visual diff as I can in Windows using the same VSS database and files (the database is hosted in a windows file share).
