Hi all!

I have wine running in version

app-emulation/wine-0.9.29

I have setup the environment via regedit:

TEMP=C:\temp --> REG_SZ and tried with both on and two backslashes.

dir also exists

-=>>ls .wine/drive_c/temp -la
insgesamt 8
drwxr-xr-x 2 user users 4096 14. Mär 18:20 .

and within /wineconsole cmd/

and /set/ I see environment:

TEMP=C:\temp
TERM=xterm
TMP=C:\temp

but on installing WindowsInstaller-KB893803-v2-x86.exe i get error 
message from installer

"unable to find a volume for
file extraction. please verify that you have permissions."

mdac installation worked fine after env temp was set.
So where looks this installer for tmp directory?


Regards and thanks in advance, gunnar
