[Bug 11887] New: WinPMail v4.50 closes on sending mail

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11887

Summary: WinPMail v4.50 closes on sending mail
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]
                CC: [e-mail]

I am testing a new release of Pegasus Mail, closed beta v14, v4.50.  This
version of the program is using the Visual C++ complier instead of the Borland
C complier.   Pretty much everything works except the sending process.  When
you send a message using either the built-in mailer or the Mercury queue the
program just goes away without error.  This is pretty much the same error as
has been seen with previous versions of the program.  When you hit send, the
message is sent (or queued) but the program is closed by the OS.  There is no
error message in Pegasus Mail as you would expect if there was a crash by the
program.  Obviously this does not happen when running on MS Windows Win98,
WinXP or Vista.  The latest version of Wine allows a "Reply" to work properly
but a "New" message", or "Forward" (with or without editing), causes the
program to close.

Regression testing will not work since all versions of Wine I've tested over
the years cause the same problem.

When working with MS Windows there is a program called WinDBG provided by MS
that allows you to see exactly what happens when the program fails.  Is there a
similar program that we can use with Linux and Wine that will allow us to trap
the program calls at the time of failure?

I am currently testing with Ubuntu v7.10 and Wine 0.9.56

Welcome to debug Wine! :)

This is not critical for Wine to work in general, just another normal bug.
Please, change the tag.

Yes, there'z an built-in debugger in Wine, winedbg. Check more here:
http://www.winehq.org/site/docs/winedev-guide/index

I remove you from the CC, because you'll get the messages as Author of the bug
already.

Thanks for the information.  I've gone through WineDBG and I'm not all that
sure that this is going to help.  There is no program faults shown, no windows
crash error at all.  The program is simply closed when the message is sent. 
This would normally be a failure of a another program and Windows closes the
program to do the system recover.

Not sure what this means.  Wine is failing, there is nothing wrong with the
program, it works with all of the various flavors of 32 bit MS Windows.  What
level of severity should this be?

For a bug to be 'critical' it would make Wine fail in general, not just on a
single application or even several. Wine failing on a single application makes
it a 'normal' bug. Please, see 'Severity' above for definitions.

I confirm this bug on my computer and wine 1.0rc1.

It is strange that Email is coorrectly sent ant Wine crashes then. It is also
interesting that Pegasus Mail popups something about not having space on a
drive
(I have 1GB free).

May be that tons of these messages on a console might lead to fixing this bug.

Different version of Pegasus Mail but the problem is essentially identical. 
Wine shuts the program down when  a message is sent or the editor window is
closed.  This seems to be a normal shutdown in but cases since the lock file is
removed as in done with a normal close.  If the program crashed the lock file
would remain.

You can try reverting the patch that caused the regression in bug 10213. If
that fixes it, then it's the same bug.

Could you please point me to some place that describes how I would "revert the
patch".  I've been searching all over and have had no luck at all.

I must be thick.  I assume this needs to be run in a terminal session but when
I try this it errors out.  It can't find the "get" command.

bash: $: command not found
The program 'patch' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
apt-get install patch

Yep, found it and looks like I'm getting closer. Here's the error this time;

FWIW, if this actually fixes the closing problem with WinPMail should this not
be removed as a patch to the basic Wine package?

Don't run/build as root. Root permission is only needed to run make install,
and you don't have to install it to test (optional, but not needed, as you can
run wine from the build directory).

That one wasn't your fault ;-). Seems dlls/user was renamed to dlls/user32.
I'll attach a patch in a moment, you can either tell it manually to patch the
correct file, or use the patch I'll attach shortly.

The patch fixed behavior for some apps, but not others. Win32 API is a
disastrous mess, and fixing some bugs often causes others. However, in this
case, the patch has seemed to cause more problems than it solved, and probably
should be reverted.(In reply to comment #18)(In reply to comment #18)

This is not much help to me.  I tried doing regression testing for days and
never was sure I got it right since there was never any change to the way Wine
worked with Pegasus Mail.  That's the primary reason no one had done regression
testing since we were not at all clear as to how to do this.

My Wine is now in two different directories.  ~.wine and ~\wine  I was hoping
there would be some simple way to build the wine package by running something
like wineinstall that is in the ~\wine\tools directory.

E-mail me privately, and I'll try to help. This sort of thing doesn't belong on
bugzilla.

Agreed, it should not be in bugzilla but it's also obvious that this is way
beyond my skill set.  I've worked with Windows, VM, VMS, Netware and a bit of
UNIX but it's not at all clear to me as to how to get rid of the patch.  I'm
too much of a Linux/Wine nubie.

It appears that you have found the reason through regression testing of why the
Wine closes Pegasus Mail when it sends a close to the editor.  I really want to
thank you for your effort.  I would have expected some sort of response from
the developer of the patch that broke this in the first place but that does not
appear to be the case.

I hope one of these days this fix will show up in a released version.
