Description Marcus Kempe 2009-05-13 17:14:06 UTC

The following call: 

wine rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler http://www.winehq.org/

does not open the wine homepage in my default browser, as is done in Windows. 

However, if i add the following 2 dlls from windows:

url.dll
iertutil.dll

to my wine-installation, the the call works as expected. 

This leads me to believe that there might be a bug, or simply an unimplemented feature.

Comment 1 Ken Sharp 2009-05-14 08:27:20 UTC

Version 1.0.1 is old, have you tried with the latest version of Wine?

Comment 2 Marcus Kempe 2009-05-14 09:13:37 UTC

Yes, I tried it now with version 1.1.21, and the problem remains.

Comment 3 Ken Sharp 2009-05-14 09:42:42 UTC

Don't change the originally reported version.

Comment 4 Ken Sharp 2009-05-14 09:46:46 UTC

Is there any output in the console?

Comment 5 Marcus Kempe 2009-05-14 11:51:22 UTC

Oh okay, sorry. I've now updated the bug to having the original version defined. 

Alas, to avoid confusion, I've tested and concluded that the bug apperas in versions 1.0.1 and version 1.1.21. (Both installed from Ubuntu PPA)

There is no output on the console after execution. Neither without using windows dll:s nor while using them. 

I also tried the same thing running winedbg, which executes without warnings.

Comment 6 Austin English 2009-05-16 15:01:40 UTC

Confirming.

Comment 7 Jerome Leclanche 2010-08-02 16:49:29 UTC

Still an issue in wine-1.3.0.

Comment 8 Vijay Kamuju 2010-11-19 15:49:32 UTC

still not working in 1.3.7

Comment 9 Ken Sharp 2011-10-03 11:23:32 UTC

Still present in wine-1.3.29

It is implemented so there must be something wrong with how it is handled.

  7 @ stdcall FileProtocolHandler(long ptr str long) FileProtocolHandlerA
  8 @ stdcall FileProtocolHandlerA(long ptr str long)
http://source.winehq.org/source/dlls/url/url.spec

http://source.winehq.org/source/dlls/url/url_main.c#L80

trace:url:FileProtocolHandlerA (0x1003e, "http://www.winehq.org/", 10)

Does this actually affect any applications though?

Comment 10 Ken Sharp 2012-09-07 09:43:35 UTC

Same result in Wine 1.5.12, but no app is reported to be affected.

Comment 11 Ken Sharp 2013-07-25 14:45:43 UTC

No change in Wine 1.6.

Comment 12 Anastasius Focht 2013-10-17 18:27:16 UTC
