This was found with a Debian 10 Buster system, running PlayOnLinux 4.3.4-1.

This used to work from the logfile until 08/06/21 20:50:03, there running wine-6.3-staging.

This seems to affect other Electon/Node applications too, when I search the forum for "uv_pipe_open".

 

Workaround 1:

Run the application from the PlayOnLinux shell or wineconsole.

Workaround 2:

I put a cmd file in place that calls the final executable within a wineconsole:

/home/user/.PlayOnLinux/shortcuts/Star Stable Online
-POL_Wine 'Star Stable Online.exe' "$@"
+POL_Wine 'Star Stable Online.cmd' "$@"

/home/user/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/starstable/drive_c/Program\ Files/Star\ Stable\ Online/Star\ Stable\ Online.cmd
cd /d "c:\Program Files\Star Stable Online"
cd
start /min wineconsole "Star Stable Online.exe"

 

This could also be reproduced on a different machine,

with a plain electron/node simple example,

without playonlinux but with regular wine (wine-6.15-81-g5e2acff5734):

# https://nodejs.org/en/download/
wget https://nodejs.org/dist/v14.17.5/node-v14.17.5-win-x64.zip
unzip node-v14.17.5-win-x64.zip

git clone https://github.com/electron/simple-samples
cd simple-samples/activity-monitor

export NODE_SKIP_PLATFORM_CHECK=1
wine c:/node-v14.17.5-win-x64/npm.cmd install --scripts-prepend-node-path
wine c:/node-v14.17.5-win-x64/npm.cmd start   --scripts-prepend-node-path





true | (setsid wine c:/node-v14.17.5-win-x64/npm.cmd start   --scripts-prepend-node-path) 2>&1 | cat

or 

wine c:/node-v14.17.5-win-x64/npm.cmd start   --scripts-prepend-node-path | tee -a logfile

 

Because I currently know no way to reproduce this on windows and it looks to depend on the way how the wine process got started, I am reporting this issue here.

At least in native windows following does not show the issue, with the same binaries:

c:\node-v14.17.5-win-x64\npm.cmd start   --scripts-prepend-node-path | more

 

But still, unsure if this should be investigated at wine side or PlayOnLinux maybe changes the wine invocation to be more like an interactive shell, using "script" maybe?

script -c "wine c:/node-v14.17.5-win-x64/npm.cmd start   --scripts-prepend-node-path" -a /dev/stdout | tee -a logfile

 

thank you!

your solution works for another software, also electron-based

net.js:329

      err = this._handle.open(fd);

                         ^


Error: EINVAL: invalid argument, uv_pipe_open

    at new Socket (net.js:329:26)

cd /d "c:\Program Files\<APP dir>"
cd
start /min wineconsole "APLICATION.exe"

Thanks for the wineconsole workaround, allowed me to play Cartel Tycoon on Steam at least with graphic bugs via

protontricks 1220140 shell
cd ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Cartel\ Tycoon/
wineconsole 'Cartel Tycoon Launcher.exe'
