Embird 2020 install fails

Post by Lark D »

Hello.
I've successfully run Embird under Linux before using wine but am trying to install it on a fresh install and I'm having difficulties.
I'm trying to install Embird 2020 Build 10.44, 32-bit version (as I recall that I could only manage the 32 bit version last time, I believe in 2018). http://www.embird.net/download.htm (The demo is the same file as the registered version)
Wine version is 1.8.7
My OS is MX Linux 18.7 (based on Debian)
These are the errors I get when I run the installer:

Code: Select all

$ wine embrd2k20b1044_x86_setup.exe

At some point I've tried "winetricks -q mdac28" based off of a post I found when searching for the first error message, but it didn't work. I have since reverted the changes winetricks made (I think). Otherwise I haven't made any changes to wine since I installed it (since I'm not using it to run any other programs).

Just an update in case anyone's searching the forums for Embird in the future- it actually worked flawlessly once I remembered to tell wine to run in 32 bits in addition to using the 32 bit version of the program! (Which I did though playonlinux because I was tired of looking up how to do things on the command line.)

Wine version is 1.8.7
As far as I can test, the 64-bit version works in Wine 5.9
