Either the serial port has inappropriate permissions or the link in dosdevices is wrong. I suggest you should learn some basic wine debugging. Run with e.g. with WINEDEBUG=+relay, pipe the resulting output into a file and afterwards grep through the file to find the place where the application tries to open the serial port. Try to find out what goes wrong and fix your setup.
