err:ole:CoGetClassObject class for TOEFL Guide App

[k0nn3]

Hello there,

I'm trying to run a software used for preparation for an popular English language test (TOEFL). It's not the "Longman"-Version of it, but the "Official Guide App".

Installation from CD works fine but it's crashing when started. Debug output reads as follows:

This is a very simple application, it only features a little text and some audio files in a GUI. I believe there is some .dll missing. The CLSID points to DAO350.dll which I don't know how to get. Some other similar problems I found feature versions of the msxml.dll . I tried to install all of these – same error. Some other topics point to fonts, I also tried it with "corefonts" which did not help. I also tried installing Flash Player, as the contents on the CD for the Mac-Installation shows me a Flash-folder. Still nothing changes.

I believe it could be something very simple. Can anyone help?

Alright, I got a bit further by myself, but still no working solution.

- I installed "winbind" and "p11-kit:i386"
- I am using Windows XP compability mode
- I use various overrides: atl120, mfc42, mfc42u, msvcp120, msvcr120, msxml3, odbc32, odbccp32, ole32, oleaut32 olesvr32, oledb32, rpcrt4, vcomp120
- I installed "vcrun2005"

I don't really know what I am doing, but the debug log has changed:

Any ideas?

Hi,

Did you use winetricks or manually copy the overridden Dlls? As you mentioned missing DAO dlls, you could try "winetricks jet40", but I doubt that it will solve the issue. You probably should file a bug report, that is the standard way to get into touch with wine developers. They will ask you to do your tests on plain wine, not on playonlinux. Is there a free demo version of the Toefl software available?
