One thing I can't understand that the > directory /.ies4linux is already there? Why it needs to create it? It doesn't. It just do what *you* have said it to do. You again gave to -d option wrong parameter "/.ies4linux/ie6". It should be "~/.ies4linux/ie6". Maybe it is a problem with copy/paste in your mail client? If you cannot copy and paste "~" symbol correctly then try this command (I assume that your home directory is /home/satimis): wine_double_install -s /home/satimis/.wine-tmp \ -d /home/satimis/.ies4linux/ie6 \ msjavx86b3805.exe \ MSJavWU_8073687b82d41db93f4c2a04af2b34d.exe If you see any permission problem don't waste your time for doing "full cycle". Script (or any other actions including manual ones) will not work while you have problems with permissions or trying to use wrong directory ("/.ies4linux/ie6" instead of "~/.ies4linux/ie6" or "/home/satimis/.ies4linux/ie6"). Remember, my script should be the only command you need (if there is no problem with permissions or typos in the command itself like in your case). > $ ls -al ~/.ies4linux > ... > "/drive_c/windows" are not there. Shall I create them? What shall be > their owner and permission? First I want to note your bad habit to use leading "/" ("/drive_c/windows") to refer to current directory. This is wrong. In Linux leading "/" always refer to root directory. If you want to refer to current directory you should use either full path or leading "./" or nothing (for example "/drive_c/windows" or "drive_c/windows"). I think that because of this bad habit you did the same mistake twice by providing wrong parameter to the -d option (with leading "/" instead of "~/"). What about your question. No, you shouldn't because drive_c should be in ie6, ie5 and other directories which are actual WINEPREFIXes. So everything is OK here. Just copy/paste the command I gave you above without changing anything there, it should work. _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
