Description CortelliStefano 2010-05-27 06:17:20 UTC

Hallo, I tried install JAVA JRE current version (6u20) under Ubuntu 9.10 and  Wine 1.2 with configuration = Windows Vista, but I receive this message:

Installer: Wrapper.CreateFile failed with error 3: Path not found

Java JRE can be downloaded here:
http://cds.sun.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/CDS-CDS_Developer-Site/en_US/-/USD/VerifyItem-Start/jre-6u20-windows-i586.exe?BundledLineItemUUID=L7uJ_hCuw7sAAAEoMVprt9hb&OrderID=a3KJ_hCuKtUAAAEoG1prt9hb&ProductID=MUNIBe.pkFEAAAEns3oZAPYl&FileName=/jre-6u20-windows-i586.exe

If I set winecfg = Windows XP all works.

Regards,

Stefano

From relay log:

It looks like the installer tries to find SHGetFolderPathEx, which appears to be exported on Vista. Since the function doesn't exist on Wine, the installer fails to prepend a path to the directory string fragment, causing failure.

SHGetFolderPathEx hack for Java JRE 6 installer

Some searching indicates that SHGetFolderPathEx was an early variant of what is now SHGetKnownFolderPath, and it is practically now undocumented by Microsoft as it has withdrawn any documentation that had existed for it long ago. The function, prototype wise, seems to be the same as SHGetKnownFolderPath except for the output parameters being a WCHAR buffer pointer and maximum length in DWORDs. Wine does not have any of the known folders functionality implemented, so the best I could do was a really bad hack that does manage to please the installer.

seems to suffer from this; it crashes with "unimplemented function".

Commits 678c6776901425654c05988202ed53f7e9a68334 and 859a1d0d44e33b9705dc8578d78b13b270d70708 implement SHGetKnownFolderPath and SHGetFolderPathEx. Please retest.

shell32: Support FOLDERID_LocalAppDataLow.

The commits are not sufficient for the java runtime installer which
wants FOLDERID_LocalAppDataLow, a folder introduced with vista.

Attached patch adds support for this folder but the next problem is
that the installer assumes that the folder exists. This folder doesn't
appear to have an official CSIDL (in which case a solution would
be to add it to wine.inf), so I'm not sure when or how this folder
should be created in Wine.

Comment 9 Anastasius Focht 2013-12-24 09:25:54 UTC

Hello folks,

refining summary as this problems affects various apps/games (search for 'AppData\LocalLow appdb').

If you find appdb entries stating 'Just create folder drive_c/users/AppData/LocalLow/xxx' add the bug for reference.

Obviously still present.

$ wine --version
wine-1.7.9-158-g33fa552
