There is a similar error with Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 SP1 installation (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wine/+bug/342266).

This is the relevant portion of the relay log showing the harddisk check.

log from install after ln -s drive_c harddiskvolume1

After setting drive_c to harddiskvolume1 it no longer produces a debugger dump
with wine from current GIT, added +relay log.

Office 2007 demo is also affected by this:

[Dan Kegel (dank)]

Yahoo Music Jukebox is also affected by this
(though to get that far, you first have to remove
~/.wine/dosdevices/z:, and you have to install WMP 9).

[Dan Kegel (dank)]

I've added a 'volnum' verb to winetricks to implement the workaround.
It lets e.g. wsh 5.7 get past the volume name check.

[Dan Kegel (dank)]

Jaime Andres proposed this for 1.0, and I think he's right.

[Jaime Rave (jaimerave)]

I'm glad that you heard my suggestion.

[Dan Kegel (dank)]

Still happens today. With 'winetricks volnum win2k', the installer
gets further, failing on bug 10698.

[James Hawkins (truiken)]

No one should ever have to install this package to satisfy another installer. We should be broadcasting "3.1" or whatever version is requested by builtin msi.

[Reece H. Dunn (msclrhd-gmail)]

This also affects the IE7 and VC2008 web-based installs from Microsoft.

[Alexandre Julliard (julliard)]

Won't happen for 1.0, deferring.

[Alexandre Maciel (amaciel81)]

Hi, this is my first Wine bug report.

Same thing here. I'm using wine-1.0-rc4 under Kubuntu 8.04 X86_64 and trying install IE7.

I guess it's important:

fixme:clusapi:GetNodeClusterState ((null),0x32ec9c,0) stub!

Best regards,
Alexandre

[Alexandre Julliard (julliard)]

This is fixed now.

[Alexandre Julliard (julliard)]

Closing bugs fixed in 1.1.7.

Okay, this was partly my error. Double clicking an *.exe seems to automatically start the "Archivmanager". The above mentioned error message is from the "Archivmanager". (Why would anyone would want to by-default open an *.exe file with the archive manager?).

Trying to to start it with WINE, this error message occurs:

----
Window #1: "Dekomprimierung der Dateien":
"Überprüfung der Datei: IE7-WindowsXP-x86-deu"

Window #2: "Dekomprimierung fehlgeschlagen"
"Es wurde kein Volume für die Dateiextrahierung gefunden. Stellen Sie sicher, dass Sie über die entsprechenden Berechtigungen verfügen."

For the archive manager bug see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/file-roller/+bug/351429

[Scott Ritchie (scottritchie)]

This appears to have been fixed upstream: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5351 http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9929

The fix will make its way into Wine 1.2, which should make its way into Karmic. In the meantime you can install a Wine beta release into Jaunty. Thank you for reporting!

[Scott Ritchie (scottritchie)]

Works now -- http://yokozar.org/blog/archives/236 for reference if you wish to install IE
