Wine problem - cant install any app
Do you have any idea how to overcome this problem?
[admin@localhost ~]$ wine64 /home/admin/Downloads/anki-2.0.28.exe fixme:service:scmdatabase_autostart_services Auto-start service L"MountMgr" failed to start: 2 wine: Bad EXE format for Z:\home\admin\Downloads\anki-2.0.28.exe. Or If I try to run any win app through Wine file it returns only "Error"... Thanks... |
Why not try the file that's for a linux distro

I'm no expert with WINE, but these are things I've run into when attempting to use it...
Does wine start at all? for instance, Notepad (I think it is) comes along as a demo app, and there are a few other wine apps that exist along with the install. Are you able to launch any of those? Usually upon first launch, there are some additional parameters that WINE has to set and download, so if you have never launched it and are now trying to install something, that could be part of the problem. Have you tried installing other applications or is anki.blah.exe the first and only? perhaps look for a very small and simple app from sourceforge (maybe a text editor) and see if you have any luck with those. Could be as simple as actually having a corrupt .exe file. |
Ok I got it to work although pointless since it's available in linux.
But did it just to know howto use wine Downloaded file it defaulted to /tmp (yours maybe different) My wine version is compholio so change yours to your version issued command Quote:
I click on Shell(which is host) to navigate to /tmp double click in Anki .exe file box opens prompting install File installs & creates icon on Desktop |
First thanks to all for your replies.
Just to clarify. Anki was the last app I tried to run so I pasted it here. I know Anki is for Linux :) Trying to install Remedy ticketing program. To notKlaatu: Wine Wordpad, Wine file everything is working. It even downloaded some files upon starting. To EDDY1: nice! Can I ask where did you get the wine-cornholio from? Do I need to get only that working or do I need normal wine as well? I tried it from pipelight.net /repo for Fedora 20 and during installation (yum install wine-compholio) it asked for: Error: Package: wine-1.7.24-10.1.x86_64 (home_DarkPlayer_Pipelight) Requires: wine-mono Error: Package: wine-core-1.7.24-10.1.i686 (home_DarkPlayer_Pipelight) Requires: nss-mdns(x86-32) Error: Package: wine-1.7.24-10.1.x86_64 (home_DarkPlayer_Pipelight) Requires: mingw64-wine-gecko Error: Package: wine-openal-1.7.24-10.1.i686 (home_DarkPlayer_Pipelight) Requires: libopenal.so.1 Error: Package: wine-1.7.24-10.1.x86_64 (home_DarkPlayer_Pipelight) Requires: mingw32-wine-gecko You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest The sam if I tried yum install wine. In my current repos only 1.7.22-1.el7 is available. Sorry If this is stupid a question but I am kinda newcomer to Linux :) |

Netflix even works. |
Tried on FC20 (1.7.24-1.fc20) and working like charm. Will need to struggle a little more to get it working in CentOS7.
Thanks |
It's all the same, you shouldn't have any problems.
If icon doesn't display as in gnome3, you can run Quote:
