Removing deprecated CVS/GIT version tag. Please retest in current git. If the bug is still present in today's wine, but was not present in some earlier version of wine, please update version field to earliest known version of wine that had the bug. Thanks!

Hello,

obviously still present...
Do you know an example app to put as download link?
The referenced wine-users thread is unspecific which informix app needs this ...

$ wine --version
wine-1.3.24-216-gd385675

Regards

Well, it's not possible to reproduce this bug as there is no application but I guess is still relevant since the files are still not created.

Still in 1.7.37.

Hello folks,

revisiting, still present.

I've found an application / installer for reproduce: 'Autodesk 3ds Max 9' trial version.

https://web.archive.org/web/20150724061434/http://files.modacity.net/software/3dsmax/3dsmax9.zip

There is a problem with the current registry setting of 'HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\DataBasePath' most installers use to query the path.

I've created bug 50318 to have the path in registry corrected so it is in sync with the Wine-Staging patchset.

With fix from bug 50318:

Wine-Staging patchset could be considered for upstreaming into mainline after Wine 6.0 release unless you want to celebrate the 13th anniversary of the bug.

SAP GUI is another application that needs these files (see related bug 49656). winsock PE conversion depends on this, so there's hope that it will be fixed sometime soon :)

Hello Hans,

I've created follow-up bug 50323 which highlights the problem that these files need to be managed in winsock API.

Bug 50323 ("Multiple applications need 'Ws2_32.getservbyname' to read information from '%SystemRoot%\System32\Drivers\Etc\services' (Autodesk 3ds Max 9 RaySat service)")

Bug 49656 ("SAP GUI - Ws2_32.getaddrinfo crashes with non-standard service (/etc/services)") could also have a follow-up one since the conceptional problem was not addressed there.

Alternatively we could convert one to a "meta" ticket, that is something like "Ws2_32.* API needs to manage '%SystemRoot%\System32\Drivers\Etc\services'".
It might be harder to get a closure on though if affected apps use different sets of winsock API calls.

Regards

Hello folks,

this is fixed by commit https://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/commitdiff/50c40b913a9ac99162f9729ab8a0869ebaae9917 ("ws2_32: Install network database files.").

Thanks Alexandre
