I've not installed Visual FoxPro, however, I've gotten that message with other applications. It turned out that the problem wasn't access to the temp directory for wine/mswindows, but access to the temp directory for Linux. If you have a Linux directory like /tmp (not ~/tmp, but /tmp), you should check it for user permissions. Locating the particular subdirectories that wine was using was easy using winecheck. It identified the exact ones that I didn't have permission to use as user. Once I fixed the permissions, I stopped receiving that message. If you've compiled wine from source, run winecheck. It will identify directories you need access to. If you've already run winecheck and you're still getting the message, then Ivan is probably correct that it's a bug. deedee -- Visit "WordStar & GNU/Linux" http://www.wordstar2.com Join us: E-mail Majordomo@wordstar2.com Add the message to the body subscribe wordstar2 _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@winehq.com http://www.winehq.com/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
