Wine fails with connecting to the drive manager.

[Eryla]

Hi, I've noticed that I'm unable to see any kind of drive configuration in winecfg and I'm met only with this message :

Code: Select all

Failed to connect to the mount manager, the drive configuration cannot be edited.

and this is what the terminal prints out :

Code: Select all

err:winecfg:open_mountmgr failed to open mount manager err 2

My Wine version is wine-1.9.1 (Staging) and I've also tried non-staging.
Distro is Arch Linux

The wine prefix is completely new on each attempt.
I've tried both win32 and win64 wine arch, same error.

The most common cause of that error is not having the needed 32 bit parts for a proper WoW64 setup. Are you sure you installed all the needed 32 bit parts of Wine as well as all 32 bit dependencies?

I'm actually pretty sure I've able to seen the drive manager working before and I don't think I've removed any package.

Here's the check-libs output :

I also have all the dependencies installed from the Wine package https://www.archlinux.org/packages/mult ... 6_64/wine/. (Or I wouldn't be able to install it)

I can run some stuff, World of Warcraft works.

I noticed this "error" when trying to winetricks vcrun2008 and it fails on

Code: Select all

Executing wine vcredist_x86.exe

with the message:

Code: Select all

Unable to find a volume for file extraction.
Please verify that you have proper permissions.

Which is how I checked the drive manager and noticed it wasn't able to connect either.

A lil update, for unrelated problem (or not?) I rebooted into a different kernel and I seem to be able to see the drive configuration again.
I have honestly no idea why, I've used linux-zen for a long time without any issues.

Might just be a coincidence, however this MIGHT have been dbus related?
I did have some dbus errors that I recently fixed.

Yes.
