wine users - Nov 2001 - Problem with Lotus Notes RNext client and setting User Preferences

Hi.

I'm new to wine, so not totally sure whether this is a wine issue, or an 
application issue, so I am hoping people with more knowledge/experience 
can help me.

I have a RedHat 7.1 system, and installed wine via a rpm package. I have 
also copies the fonts from a Win NT 4 system and added them to my X11 
config.

I am trying to use the beta version of the Lotus Notes RNext client 
under wine. Most things appear to work OK (got fonts working after 
copying the Win NT 4 fonts), however I have found that whenever I go 
into the user preferences part of this application, when I click on OK 
to activate the changes, the wine debugger appears and shows the 
following error:

Unhandled exception: page fault on read access to 0x0000006a in 32-bit 
code (0x005d6095).
In 32-bit mode.
Symbol h_errno is invalid
0x005d6095 (NNOTESWS.DLL.ReadFontPreferences+0x42685 in C:\PROGRAM 
FILES\LOTUS\NOTES\NNOTESWS.DLL): movl 0x6a(%eax),%ecx

Has anyone got any thoughts on what could be causing this, whether it is 
an application issue (and therefore I should report it to Lotus/IBM), 
whether it is a wine issue (and its either a configuration issue or a 
bug) or anything else? Any help here would be much appreciated.

Thanks.
Simon

These kind of errors are normally Wine errors. Read about debugging.
A relay log showing what goes on before the crash and the debugger backtrace
can sometimes point in the right direction

I tried debugging with the relay option, which generated a 40Mb file, but 
I could not see anything obvious in it as to what failed. I did notice the 
following error messages when the application was starting...

err:win32:PE_fixup_imports No implementation for OLEAUT32.DLL.97 imported 
from C:\Program Files\Lotus\Notes\nnotesws.dll, setting to 0xdeadbeef
err:win32:PE_fixup_imports No implementation for OLEAUT32.DLL.127 imported 
from C:\Program Files\Lotus\Notes\nnotesws.dll, setting to 0xdeadbeef

I also noticed that wine and/or Lotus Notes is core dumping, generating 
about a 64Mb file in .wine under the users home directory...

Any additional thoughts on what could be happening here?

Thanks.

Is the core dump mentioning "deadbeef" anyhow? Better set up the wine
debugger to get a backtrace.

I guess you run with builtin oleaut32. If the application stumbles across
the missing oleaut32 functions, try running with native oleaut32 .

Whats the best way of getting the wine Debugger backtrace output into a 
file?

Thanks.
