wine users - May 2011 - WoW Launcher.exe crashs

Hi,

I've got no problem playing World of Warcraft via the Wow.exe file, but
Launcher.exe was always a little buggy, crashing from time to time.

Problem is that today there's a new, small, patch, and Launcher.exe keeps
crashing (the Launcher window shows up, then freeze), so i can't update and
therefore, can't play.

I use Archlinux (64bit) and wine 1.3.19.

Crash log:

Thanks in advance for any help ^^[/code]

(Just a thought: Launcher.exe is started automaticaly when WoW needs an update,
if there's a way to update it without Launcher.exe, that would fix my
problem...)

Hi,

I experienced a similar problem, my System as follows:
Arch 64: uname -a => 2.6.38-ARCH
wine --version => wine-1.3.19 (recently updated)
desktop => gnome-shell (just changed)
router firewall is setup for WoW

$wine Wow.exe -opengl

resulted in a similar debug - especially the following line:
$fixme:wininet:set_cookie persistent cookies not handled ...

A google suggested that i grab winetricks and try:
$winetricks ie7

This solved my problem and now *wine Wow.exe -opengl* calls *Launcher.exe* which
now downloads the patch correctly. I am able to use WoW in the new setup with 
Gnome-shell and wine 1.3.19 now. (winecfg is setup to run in window mode and as 
XP - but don't know if that is necessary)

Good luck with yours, hope this helps.

I'm having the same problem. It's strange because the launcher has
worked fine up until about a week ago.

I'm running Wine 1.3.19 on 64-bit Arch Linux as well, and the launcher
stopped working immediately after the 1.3.19 update. A lot of other packages
changed in that update too, though, because of the update from GNOME2 to GNOME3.

The crash seems to be caused by some kind of HTML issue. The launcher works fine
after installing IE6 on a 32-bit winearch using winetricks. Could this be an
issue with the wine_gecko package on Arch Linux?

I had same experience.

2.6.38-ARCH (64bit)
wine-1.3.19
270.41.06 (nvidia driver - 7800gt)

upgraded kernel, xorg, nvidia, wine, gnome2-3 and my launcher stopped working

Solution:

$winetricks ie7

And now all works great - got the same error about the cookie.
Good Luck.

I don't think it's GNOME; I purged it after the update and I still had
the launcher crash using Fluxbox. I've also since done a fresh install of
Arch Linux, running XFCE, and the problem still came up.
