Hello folks,

confirming.

It's not the installer crashing but the post-install part, the startup of Steam client service.

...
PreviousState [out, optional]

    A pointer to a buffer that the function fills with a TOKEN_PRIVILEGES structure that contains the previous state of any privileges that the function modifies. That is, if a privilege has been modified by this function, the privilege and its previous state are contained in the TOKEN_PRIVILEGES structure referenced by PreviousState. If the PrivilegeCount member of TOKEN_PRIVILEGES is zero, then no privileges have been changed by this function. This parameter can be NULL.

    If you specify a buffer that is too small to receive the complete list of modified privileges, the function fails and does not adjust any privileges. In this case, the function sets the variable pointed to by the ReturnLength parameter to the number of bytes required to hold the complete list of modified privileges.
ReturnLength [out, optional]

    A pointer to a variable that receives the required size, in bytes, of the buffer pointed to by the PreviousState parameter. This parameter can be NULL if PreviousState is NULL.
--- quote ---

I checked the service binary code and "ReturnLength" is really hard-coded to NULL while "PreviousState" is non-NULL (stack var).

Another case of MSDN not really telling the truth.

Hello folks,

refining summary in hope it will avoid more duplicates...

Hello folks,

commit fd65b0a1c3f5f981cc110ca9e6a0edb6323e1296 should also be considered for cherry pick into stable branch if another 1.6.x happens before 1.8

Regards

Well, considering this rather unusual API usage breaks all existing Wine versions I'm still undecided whether this can be attributed to laziness or foul play.
MSDN is quite clear about it ...

Regards

I built the latest version of Wine from the git repository with this patch (wine-1.7.7-160-g58d96f7), and I'm still experiencing a failure of the latest version of Steam to load. It was working well yesterday prior to the latest Steam update.

I tested fresh installing Steam from the executable to a new WINEPREFIX using wine-1.7.7-160-g58d96f7 and it still failed to load after the Steam Guard step.

With both 1.7.7 and wine-1.7.7-160-g58d96f7, it successfully loads into offline mode and shows the following version information:
Steam Client Application
Built: Dec 3 2013, at 18:36:49
Steam API: v012
Steam package versions: 1386125885/1386125885

I've posted details including a trace here. I can generate more specific debugging information if it could help.

Hello babaei,

the log from your link shows you have not built from 'pure' Wine GIT source tree.
You have several unsupported patches applied.

If you can still reproduce with 'pure' Wine create a new bug.
The original breaking issue from Dec. 03 client update has been identified and fixed -> bug closed.
Please refrain from continuing this bug with unrelated issues.

FYI: Several people can run Steam Dec. 03 update without problems in online mode.

Regards

I can assure you that I built my system directly from the git repository without modifications and ran it directly from the source tree. I will open a new bug, but I don't want it to be flagged as a duplicate of this one.

I commented on this bug report because, in addition to not wanting to be flagged as a duplicate, I was still experiencing "Steam Client update from Dec. 3, 2013 breaks Wine" in spite of the fix.

Hello babaei,

well then this pulseaudio thingy must be my imagination ...

--- quote ---
Even with the release version of 1.7.7, I never saw it fail with a page fault (like in the linked bug).
--- quote ---

Which basically means your system is somehow borked (broken WINEPREFIX, host issues).
Every Wine version that received the Dec. 03 Steam Client update should crash the same way in 'online' mode.

To reiterate: any further bug reports at this time, stating "steam is broken" or "it still doesn't work" will definitely confuse _lots_ of people that are currently seeking help in many forums/mailing lists/entertainment websites.

Your problem seems to be an isolated issue.
There is #winehq IRC channel on freenode so join and we might work this one out without creating further confusion.

Regards

Hello. 

Tell me please. Bug already fixed. Fix patch commited into main branch.
So. Does that fix (patch) will be included into 1.7.8 release?

Thanks. 
Oleg.

Yes.

Thanks for your answer. 

p.s. I interested because I don't do dev team "string freeze" before release or no.

Thanks.

Still crashes, reloads not working

Wine is still crashing after steam loads.  my previous report may have contained the first crash report which actually isnt a crash.  This is the second report which comes up after steam actually crashes.  I am attempting to load an older version of wine but ive been through several system re-installs to try and remedy the crash and nothing changes.

Why are you using old wine build (1.4.1)? Fix is only present in current dev branch, and will be included in release 1.7.8 (expected today). It makes no sense to try with older versions.

Closing bugs fixed in 1.7.8.

there were already several occasions where people claimed "after the update steam still doesn't work for me", absolutely convinced they made no mistake - and in the end it turned out not being Wine's fault.

To all people who are inclined to post/comment here:

If the upgrade to Wine 1.7.8 didn't resolve the Steam problem, please go to WineHQ user support forums (http://forum.winehq.org/) and get help there.

WIne 1.7.8 fixed this isuue (Steam starts again) - but now audio stutters in all games! :-(

*** Bug 35091 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

*** Bug 35099 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Wine 1.7.8 is not fixing this bug for me.  I have frequent authentication failure hangs.  When I first install steam I can get in but can not download any games or verify the game cache.

After I log out of steam,  logging in again causes steam to fail during authentication.

Interestingly I get the same error prior to the 1.7.8 fix,
[1215/013422:ERROR:resource_bundle.cc(417)] Failed to load C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\bin\chrome.pak

Wine 1.4.1 is the version that Ubuntu installs. Even after adding the ppa source lists, Ubuntu doesn't seem to update to newer versions of Wine. I'm using Ubuntu 13:10 and it still lists my version of Wine as 1.4.1. You may have found a solution to the problem, but The 12/03 update still has my version of Steam kiboshed.

You need to install wine1.6 / wine1.7 packages after adding the PPA, it won't replace the wine1.4 package.

this is what the error says.

i have no clue what any of this means and it says on here that this was fixed but for me its not.

this error keeps happining to me everytime i want to log into steam through wine. it gives me the login screen and after giving it my pass, steam sends me an email with a code to enter because apparently im useing a new computer. but after entering the code wine says somethings having serious issues and steam then closes. im not good with computers so i have absolutly no clue whats happining.anyone have any advice for me?

Hello sovejohn,

you need to upgrade to Wine 1.7.8 or newer.
If you don't know how to do that, please go to WineHQ user support forums (http://forum.winehq.org/) and get help there.

Bugzilla is not meant for end user support.

Thanks.

Ok, take 2...

I was going to post something about the bug, that i do get still, but i realised i'm using wine 1.6.1. I have something to look into before i get deeper into that. The fact remains that the "how to" on this bug mainly links here and here it mainly says to figure it out yourself...

TLDR, please elaborate in the "how to" on this bug as this does not contain user friendly instructions.

As it says in comment #40, you need to update to wine 1.7.8.
