Winex compiling problem


When I try to compile Winex it gives me a registration problem that reads as follows:

Created /root/.wine/config using default Wine configuration.
You probably want to review the file, though.

Compiling regapi...
rm -f regapi && ln -s ../../wine regapi

Preparing to install default Wine registry entries...
Installing default Wine registry entries...

wine: chdir to /root/.wine/wineserver-localhost.localdomain : No such file or directory
Registry install failed.


Thanks in advance for help!

You need to run the wineserver before hand. Try running wineserver, then wine.

I typed wineserver and it didn't say bad command so i'm assuming I did the right thing, i'll let you know if it worked

new problem showed up:

Could not stat /root/.transgaming/c_drive (Success), ignoring drive C:
Invalid path 'c:\windows' for windows directory: does not exist
Perhaps you have not properly edited or created your Wine configuration file.
This is (supposed to be) '/root/.wine/config'
Registry install failed.

thnx in advance again
