           Summary: Macromedia Studio 8 installer hangs
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.44.
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-misc
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: dank at kegel.com


To try installing Studio 8, you first have to work around a
bug in the way the CD-ROM was mastered: they
included rockridge extensions, but neglected
to make files world-readable.  This causes
mysterious errors about not being able to run the installer:
wine: could not load L"D:\\install studio 8.exe": Module not found
So you have to remount the cd-rom with the 'norock' option, e.g.:
$ umount /media/cdrom
$ sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom -o norock

OK, on to the problem. Like Studio MX (see bug 9035), 
Studio 8's top level installer runs the installers of six
or so apps.  And like the earlier version, it hangs.
But this hang is bad; it's on the end of the
first app, and it it can't be solved by clicking "OK".

The hang occurs at the end of the Dreamweaver installation,
right after it says "Publishing product information".
The installer still responds to the mouse, but if you
ask it to cancel, it keeps going, no matter how many
times you say you want to cancel.

+process revealed the commandline used to invoke the
problematic subinstaller.  To reproduce with just
the subinstaller, do
wine msiexec.exe /i 'D:\fscommand\Macromedia_Dreamweaver_8.msi' MM_STUDIO=1
