OriginPro 8 refuses to work with a new Wine in Mavericks

[edited]

Wine was running OriginPro 8 quite okay even until after I upgraded from OSX Lion to Mavericks.

I use MacPorts and Wine. Under Mavericks, MacPorts refused to upgrade outdated ports, so I had to delete and reinstall MacPorts and all its ports, including Wine. I'm not sure if that was a good or a bad idea.

After the re-install of Wine, OriginPro 8 stopped working. At first, it crashed (it freezes) after clicking five or six times on the "File" menu. Then it crashed/froze instantly when I clicked on the "File" menu. Clicking on other menu items, e.g. "Edit" or "Help" or "Window" did not elicit a crash.

Upon freezing/crashing, it says only:
>fixme:storage:create_storagefile Storage share mode not implemented.
>Assertion failed at address 0x000b:0x9938f952 (thread 0009), starting debugger...
But the debugger neither ever finishes nor does it tell me anything.

I tried also OriginPro 8.51, but it showed exactly the same freezing behavior when clicking on "File".

It was still ok to work with, as it started fine, and the button bar allows most of the "File" menu's commands. But now, the freezing occurs already during starting it.

I read from this ticket http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... n&iId=5834 and from other sources that this might have something to do with msiexec, especially when something freezes. I tried to install msiexec version 4 and 6, additionally, with wine tricks, but both fail to install.

I do not understand what is going on there. Do I need Wine-devel instead of Wine? Which components of Wine did I forgot to install?

I managed to get the backtrace, maybe this helps somehow ...

I actually meant msxml and not msiexec. Sorry.

A clean wineprefix for OriginPro solves the problem (partially though, as the 'file' menu is still broken).

Strangely, if I run any other program with Wine after installing OriginPro, then this leads to OriginPro freezing directly when it starts.
