Wine 2.18 can't run Aquad 7 (free data analysis program)

[Mago90]

Hello, when I try to run Aquad 7 I get a box saying the program it is initializing, and when I click OK to close the box Wine 2.18 crashes. When I try to get a "program error details" debug, the box just get stuck and it won't show any collected information.

I tried to run it from terminal and I got:

Code: Select all

wine: Unhandled exception 0x0eedfade in thread 140 at address 0x7bca1ce0:0x7b43c69c (thread 0140), starting debugger...
err:seh:setup_exception_record stack overflow 880 bytes in thread 0140 eip f7576c37 esp 00230fc0 stack 0x230000-0x231000-0x330000

I am on Lubuntu 16.04.3. Aquad is a professional and opensource software for data analysis but it runs only on Windows, It would be so useful being able to run it on Wine.

ps: I tried to create an account for the appdb and add Aquad but for whatever reasons it doesnt send me the authentication email.. If anyone could add it to the list it would be great.

Hi, I gave the program a try and got the same crash,

From debuglog it appears it was printer-related. I have no printer installed, but did not believe a program can crash because of that. But remarkebly the following did the trick to get the program running:

sudo apt-get --no-install-recommends install cups-pdf

I`m not sure if this is a bug in wine and /or the program?.
