wineprefixcreate: msiexec.exe -- "Failed to open the service control manager"
...);
if (status == ERROR_SUCCESS) {
RegCloseKey(hkey);
}
^^^^^^^^
However, this seems kludgey and intuitively does not seem the proper way
to do things. Putting it in the wine.inf won't work, because installing
services (SPINST_REGSVR) comes before installing registry keys
(SPINST_REGISTRY).
I have also commented out the msiexec.exe from the RegisterDllsSection,
and added wine msiexec.exe /RegServer after the
setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection, and this works, but this also seems
like a kludge.
What is the proper way to guarantee the key exists before encountering
the msiexec.exe...
