           Summary: CreateDirectory fails if the target directory already
                    exists
           Product: Wine
           Version: 20030408
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-files
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.com
        ReportedBy: jwilliams at itee.uq.edu.au


Running a DOS command line utility that creates a directory heirarchy and 
populatews it.  In a WinXP DOS box, if a directory already exists, this fact is 
silently ignored and the program carries on.  However, under Wine, the 
application reports an error:

> ERROR:MDT - Failed to create directory
>    C:\microblaze\linux_test\microblaze_1\libsrc\.

Here is the relevant trace output

trace:file:CreateDirectoryW (L"C:\\microblaze\\linux_test\\microblaze_1
\\libsrc\\",(nil))
warn:file:CreateDirectoryW Error 'File exists' trying to create 
directory '/home/jwilliam/win/c/microblaze/linux_test/microblaze_1/libsrc'
trace:file:WriteFile 0x8 0x40722658 91 0x40722a60 (nil)
ERROR:MDT - Failed to create directory
   C:\microblaze\linux_test\microblaze_1\libsrc\.

It seems that Wine is reporting this as a "fatal" error, whereas Windows does 
not.

I reported this at comp.emulators.microsoft-windows.wine, and was advised to 
lodge a bug report.  I searched the bugzilla DB and didn't find anything like 
this.
