You posted your output when trying to start the program but you omitted to include from which directory you attempted this. I have found that wine-20040615 calls the 'c' drive "drive_c' and not the traditional 'c', so maybe please check this. Try $ cd .wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/<Program name> and then issue $ wine <program.exe>

If you still cannot get anywhere then it is possible I do not fully understand your problem yet.

If something happens to show that your program is somewhere 'alive' but it still fails, then try the following and post your results:

$ WINEDEBUG=+loaddll,+process wine <program name.exe> [ Be sure your are within the directory that the *.exe resides within first.]

Hope this can help 'cause I have been trying to get AutoCAD sorted myself and seek clues from this list by looking at others' problems.

		Dear list,

I would like to know why can't execute any application from my wine installation: I have installed wine-20040408-mdk.i586.rpm on Mandrake10 Community. Each time I want to run a program, it starts but can not continue (Opera7 for Windows gets hanged up looking for the internet page, for instance). What am I doing wrong?

Also, I don't know if I need to install Microft Office 2000 on Linux in order to execute it.

	Can somebody help me on that?




May I ask why you are trying to run Opera for Windows using Wine? There is an Opera for Linux.

I don't use MS Office under Linux (OpenOffice.org is a good substitute), but the overwhelming likelihood is that you do need to install it under Linux to run it with Wine; you might want to consider Crossover Office (a commercial version of Wine specifically for applications like MS Office, Lotus Notes, etc), if you absolutely must run MS Office for some reason. Check www.codeweavers.com for more information.

If there are other applications you can't run, please try running wine<program_name> from a terminal and post the error message you get. There's no way we can psychically divine what is going on with your system.

Holly

Hi,



Drives-Section in wine config is set up properly. The path specifications
are setup as c:\\windows... and so on. I tried one backslask instead of
twice with no effort.

It it thinkable that utf-8 as default charset on a new SuSE 9.1 will cause
this path problem?



I run WINE on Suse9.0 and it runs fine (I dont know wether Suse9.0 has utf-8 as default). As far as I know there are at least two wrong configurations which cause a "Warning: the specified Windows directory L"C:\\Windows" is not accessible"


First, your fake-windows drive ("c:") is not set up correctly or the permissions on the fake-win directory are wrong. (By the way in newer WINE versions there are symlinks in .wine/dosdevices not in the drive sections in the wine config file)

Second, the path two the windows system directory in wine config is wrong.

I never experienced any other problems accessing a fake-win directory. If you post your drives section/dosdevices directory listing and the permissions on your win drive, maybe I can help you.

cu,

Stefan
