Any suggestions for what I should try next?
Declan Moriarty replied:
I'd try mounting the setup disk on .wine/drive_c/install/ or some such
directory, and running the setup from there. I'd also give the program
the Dos pathname:
wine C:\\install\\Setup.exe
You can also run it using winedbg, or with WINEDEBUG variable set
e.g. WINEDEBUG=+
to try for more information.
Sensible suggestions, thanks. I tried both but unfortunately
they didn't help (i.e., still failed with the alternate mount
point and the debug output didn't make much sense to me).
I wrote a little test program to see how GetWindowsDirectory
and GetSystemDirectory work in 16-bit apps under Wine. The
output was not ideal so I submitted a bug report:
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7853
"GetSystemDirectory returns wrong directory to 16-bit apps"
and a separate (but linked) report for VB 3.0 installation
in general:
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7854
It'll be interesting to see what response these reports get.
Ed Davies.
