Win Program Works with Wine 1.6 Fine, Unhandled Error in 1.8

[lasakro]

Hello,

I've had no issues running this Windows Radio Scanner program, ProScan 10.2, with Wine 1.6 and .NET FW 4.5:

http://www.proscan.org/

With Wine 1.8, which has .NET 4.5 installed on my Ubuntu system, throws the following Unhandled error and if ignored the graphics are all messed up.

Code: Select all

The same thing happens with Debian.

I'm not a programmer but does anyone have ideas to get this to correctly run? Thanks.

First retest with the latest development release (1.9.8), and if the problem persists, run a regression test and file a bug. https://wiki.winehq.org/Regression_Testing

Following the Debian install for packages results in "Unable to locate package winehq-devel" for 1.9.8.

https://wiki.winehq.org/Debian#Installi ... Q_packages

After following the Ubuntu instructions i was able to get 1.9.8 install on Debian and receive the same error above.

I read through the Regression Testing and there's no way can devote the amount of time required, plus the steep learning curve, so I guess I'll try to purge the newer Wine, unsuccessful in the past, and stick with 1.6.

I just tested the app in 1.9.8. I get the same error you posted when using wine-mono, but not when .NET 4.5 is installed. Are you sure you installed .NET 4.5?

Well a newbie mistake. I was using the .NET FW verification script and could have swarn that it reported after all my installs of 1.7 and 1.8 that 4.5 was present so no I never installed .NET FW.After reading your results I did and problem solved. Thank you for your second check.
