Not able to run executable file using wine on 64 bit ubuntu

Post by amit4mins »

Hi,

I was trying to run .exe file using wine on ubuntu 64 bit system but i was returned with an error Saying : err:process:start_process L"PATH TO EXE FILE" doesn't have an entry point, it cannot be executed.
Can anyone let me know whats wrong with that.
I went through a lots of posts on internet but no luck.

Please put me in right direction.

Thanks a lot

Try using the actual path to the executable in place of "path to exe" in the command line.

This is a known issue with 64-bit .net application. If this is the case, you can try to install the patch from the wine-staging:

https://wine-staging.com/

The following issue is covered by the 2.12 staging: Loading of .NET CLI images without entry point

Good luck.
