Re: Wine config difficulties

["Bill Medland" <medbi01_1@accpac.com>]

Don't create a file there.  Wine itself will try to create it.  The question is "why did it fail".

 

Was the message preceded by "bind:"?

 

It sounds like something to do with BSD.

 

Have you tried it as someone other than root?

I hope i am posting this to the right list.

 

Specs:

FreeBSD 4.x

Wine 20011108 -- FreeBSD ports version

Me == Newbie

 

I am trying to configure wine manually because the package i recieved does not include winesetup.  I configured the drives to suit my setup and left the rest as the defaults.

 

When i try to start wine with "wine program.exe" i get this error:

"/root/.wine/wineserver-my_hostname/socket : no such file or directory"

 

when i created a blank file at that location it returned "'/root/.wine/wineserver-my_hostname/socket' is not a socket"

 

How do i make a socket in the correct location.

 

Thanks in advance,
