wine app launch script not working


Hi all, I have a windows app that gets run through wine. I can run it fine by typing into a terminal, but now I want to make it start automatically on startup. So I guess a script would be the nest thing? As soon as I put the same command into a script, it no longer works. Here is the command:



#!/bin/sh

WINEDEBUG=fixme-all wine y:/_sambaserver/Programs/app.exe



I then chmod u+x it, but nothing happens when I click on it. It flashes a couple of times and then ... nothing

I take out the 'WINEDEBUG=fixme-all' and it still doesn't work.

Any ideas anyone??

I must re-iterate, I can type this into Eterm and it works fine, so wine and network etc are all fine, its just the script and its running that aren't working.

Any help would be much appreciated, I have been searching the forums for days now. Thanks

oh yeah, i am in fluxbuntu, basically ubuntu running fluxbox and rox - not that I think it makes any diff.

Use a linux name of an executive file, not wine name, e.g. /home/<home>/.wine/...
