           Summary: Articulate Presenter 5.2 installer fails on first run
           Product: Wine
           Version: CVS
          Platform: Other
               URL: http://www.articulate.com/
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: download, Installer
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-msi
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: dank at kegel.com


When you first run the installer (ap520trial.exe)
on a clean system, it fails with

trace:msi:HANDLE_CustomType1 Calling function L"ISForceReboot" from
L"C:\\windows\\temp\\msi251d.tmp"
...
err:msi:custom_get_thread_return Invalid Return Code 1604
trace:msi:msiobj_release object 0x18cff8 destroyed
err:msi:ITERATE_Actions Execution halted, action
L"ISForceReboot.E41D22B8_89E8_11D6_A8E3_00B0D0419B9B" returned 1603

Running it again succeeds.  A diff of +msi shows 
-trace:msi:MSI_GetPropertyW returning L"0" for property L"WSHVERSION"
+trace:msi:MSI_GetPropertyW returning L"5.6.0.6626" for property L"WSHVERSION"
so perhaps the installer was trying to install wsh5.6
and then force a reboot.  Sure enough, running 'winetricks wsh56'
on a clean .wine and then running this app's installer succeeds.

Googling finds three or so other installers that suffer from this;
see e.g. bug 4700 comment 8, which says spss 14 demo failed this way.

I'll attach the interesting part of the +msi,+relay log.
I'm marking this as an msi bug out of lack of imagination....
