Reproduction Steps

  • Setup new AMP instance
  • Install Space Engineers
  • It fails to start because of missing VC runtime
2

Same with Ubuntu. Solution?

3

Delete the wine prefix and update again

4

Do you mean the folder called .wine?

5

That’s right. See how you go

6

Did that, did not change the error. Going to try and reinstall.

EDIT:

Reinstall did not work

@Greelan

7

Could you make sure your docker images are up to date: docker pull -a

8

I do want to mention that my AMP install is brand new as of today type new.

root@amp:~# docker pull -a
"docker pull" requires exactly 1 argument.
See 'docker pull --help'.

Usage:  docker pull [OPTIONS] NAME[:TAG|@DIGEST]

Download an image from a registry

EDIT: Used ChadGPT to give me a command to update all images.

root@amp:~# docker images --format "{{.Repository}}:{{.Tag}}" | xargs -n 1 docker pull
wine8: Pulling from cubecoders/ampbase
Digest: sha256:ec140ec81611b8a651fb68104d33e72c5932734b6e6b73a3a2ecd8d34a2c1f1b
Status: Image is up to date for cubecoders/ampbase:wine8
docker.io/cubecoders/ampbase:wine8
9

Server start.
When it work server:
Environment.OSVersion: Microsoft Windows 11 Pro (Microsoft Windows NT 6.2.9200.0)
server not work:
Environment.OSVersion: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro (Microsoft Windows NT 6.2.9200.0)

10

Let me look at forcing the prefix to win11

Recently the template was changed to accommodate working with wine 9, which is what the docker image provides. Worked fine for Ice and me in testing

SE is generally a pita

11

I wonder if space engineers specifically require 2019-2015 instead of backwards compatibility from VC 2022? I’ve seen applications require it specifically on my day-to-day basis.

12

As I said, worked fine in testing. Also what Ptero/Pelican uses

13

Didn’t realize that, I thought they used win10. I guess everyone is moving to win11 :joy:

14

I meant that it uses vcrun2022

Their yolk and egg don’t specifically set in the windows version in the prefix either

15

Actually, I misremembered. I do already set win11 in the prefix (as does Ptero)

Maybe need to reset it after installing vcrun2022

16

Do you need to specifically set mono like they did?

17

It does all that. You can check out the script yourself on github

18

OK, I’ve narrowed it down to Winetricks not working properly in docker, even though the installed wine version is the same as I have on my host

When the instance is updated outside docker, the prefix is fine. When the prefix is deleted and updated inside docker, it is not

19

Looks like a bug in the latest Winetricks

Seeing this exact message in the log: Warning, fails to launch with WINEPREFIX and WINEARCH variables set after latest commits · Issue #2325 · Winetricks/winetricks · GitHub

20

Will looking changing the script to grab the previous release version of Winetricks
