           Summary: Regression:  Unable to Install Word Perfect Office 11,
                    12 or X3
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.3
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: pbronline-wine at yahoo.co.uk


With Wine 1.1.3 I am no longer able to install any MSI based version Word
Perfect Office.  I have tried all Wine development versions up to 1.1.7 without
success.  By contrast, these version of Word Perfect Office install OK with
Wine 1.1.2 and back to Wine 1.0.0 and earlier.  So this is a regression.

The InstallShield installer reports:

"The wizard was interrupted before Paradox could be completely installed."

The console log symptoms are:

fixme:msi:msi_unimplemented_action_stub UnregisterTypeLibraries -> 1 ignored
L"TypeLib" table values
fixme:msi:msi_unimplemented_action_stub UnregisterProgIdInfo -> 3 ignored
L"ProgId" table values
fixme:msi:msi_unimplemented_action_stub RemoveShortcuts -> 2 ignored
L"Shortcut" table values
fixme:msi:msi_unimplemented_action_stub RemoveDuplicateFiles -> 1 ignored
L"DuplicateFile" table values
fixme:msi:msi_unimplemented_action_stub RemoveFolders -> 45 ignored
L"CreateFolder" table values
err:msi:msi_cabextract FDICopy failed
err:msi:ACTION_InstallFiles Failed to extract cabinet: L"Data1.cab"
err:msi:ITERATE_Actions Execution halted, action L"InstallFinalize" returned
1627
err:msi:ITERATE_Actions Execution halted, action L"ExecuteAction" returned 1627

It is also necessary to kill an InstallShield program before Wine will exit:

C:\PROG~FBU\COMM~CP1\INST~JM1\Driver\7\INTE~MEX\IDriver.exe -Embedding 

I have run a 'full regression' between Wine 1.1.2 and Wine 1.1.3.  The end
result of which was:

ubuntu at holly:wine$ git bisect good
e10302d95207f5a01bf3e0a2810d1671b49eed57 is first bad commit

Surprised by this result, I ran the regression again.  The end result of the
second run was:

$ git bisect bad

I believe that during the second regression I was able to install successfully
using builds against commits made between the two shown above.

I tried installing against the end result of the second regression run.  Each
attempt failed.  I then attempted the installation using WINEDEBUG=+relay in
order to collect a detailed log for submission.  The installation was
successful.  I ran the installer again without the WINEDEBUG=+relay and it
failed with the InstallShield wizard claiming it had been interrupted.

Installs are done using a script that starts by deleting .wine to ensure
consistent, valid results.  The scripts installs winetricks corefonts wsh56 for
Word Perfect Office 11 and 12 and winetricks corefonts wsh56 gecko fakeie6 for
Word Perfect Office X3.  I have used this script for testing purpose since Wine
1.0.0.

Trials against Wine 1.0.0. through 1.1.7 were run in kvm/qemu virtual machines.
 A new clone of an up-to-date Ubuntu Hardy was used for each Wine version.  The
Ubuntu variant is Xubuntu - an Xfce desktop under gdm.  I used SDL to display
VGA output rather than a VNC session.

The regressions were run on a real machine also with an up-to-date Ubuntu
Hardy, but the Kubuntu variant - KDE desktop under kdm.  For the sake of
completeness, XDMCP was used to log in to the main server from where an ssh -X
was used to login in to the machine on which the regression were run and the
installations attempted.

I use CC="ccache gcc" to cut down build times.  The second regression run was
not expected to compile anything but, since the bisection was not the same, I
guess it must have.

Sorry, but trial versions of these old releases of Word Perfect Office are no
longer available for download.  

Any suggestions as to how I can get some information that might be more helpful
?
