Hello Susan,

unfortunately the log doesn't show obvious errors.

Just normal WINEPREFIX "warmup" with builtin processes/services started, along
with some ngen run (native .NET Framework 4.0 service).

Nothing that tells there is an installation going on.
No MSI, no InstallShield.

Since I saw native .NET I must assume you reuse some existing prefix or was it
just one prerequisite install via winetricks before the running the app
installer?
I would avoid spending time on diagnosis of broken prefixes.

Just install the minimum prerequisites required in a 32-bit WINEPREFIX (those
that usually don't install well with Wine). Nothing else.

Also try to reduce the amount of log by using following approach:

Open another (second) terminal and start a Wine builtin app, 'notepad' for
example.
After that, start the actual installer in the first terminal:

$ WINEDEBUG=+tid,+seh,+relay,+msi wine ./replace_me_by_installer_name.exe
>>log.txt 2>&1

If the installation failed once, please don't try create another log out of it.
You must re-do everything.
The prefix must be pristine to allow proper diagnosis. Otherwise a repair
install gets triggered and all sorts of things go wrong.

Regards
