Wine question
I'm running centos 6.5 and have kernel 2.6.32 installed. I have installed wine64 version wine-1.6.2. When I try to install ForexTrader Pro, I keep getting a png error:
err:menubuilder:convert_to_native_icon error 0x80004005 creating bitmap encoder err:wincodecs:PngEncoder_CreateInstance Trying to save PNG picture, but PNG support is not compiled in. I have pnglib installed: rpm -qa | grep libpng libpng-1.2.49-1.el6_2.x86_64 I'm not totally sure if I need to recompile wine with some sort of png switch but any help with this would be appreciated..... |
Probably a 32bit/64bit thing. 32bit programs need 32bit libs, and 64bit likewise.
Everything (windows exe, wine, & linux os & support libs) needs to share the same bittiness. You'd be amazed how much 32 bit even windows 8 runs |
ok, so how do I fix it? Do I need to try this on a 32 bit version of cent?

run it down
Code:
locate libpng.so |
[root@ofpc ~]# locate libpng.so
/usr/lib/libpng.so.3 /usr/lib/libpng.so.3.49.0 /usr/lib64/libpng.so.3 /usr/lib64/libpng.so.3.49.0 /usr/lib64/compiz/libpng.so This is the output |
That's probably OK (unless some libs are in the wrong place). And the rest of it?
Code:
file /path/to/wine |
[root@ofpc ~]# file /usr/bin/wine64
/usr/bin/wine64: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.18, stripped I'm hoping that is what you are looking for. When you say file /path/to/program. I'm assuming you mean the forex program I want to install??? It's just a download, I tried running the setup from multiple locations. The last one was from within wine file browser I copied the setup.exe to the program files folder. |
Yes, it's any executable you are trying to run. Wine64 is strictly for 64 bit programs atm and I never bother to install it until something tells me it won't run on wine(32). Then I might
