Application could not be started
Application could not be started
I don't know if this is a script error or a bug. I get this error since 6.5 staging update today 3/30/2021.
Application could not be started, or no application associated with the specified file.
ShellExecuteEx failed: File not found.
wine --version
wine-6.5 (staging)
I get this everytime I try to launch Diablo 3 using the script I have been using for years:
env WINEPREFIX="/home/user/.wine" WINEARCH=win64 wine start /Unix "$DIABLO3/Diablo III.exe" -launch -uid [email protected]
Using Kubuntu 20.04
cat /etc/issue
Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS \n \l
dpkg -l|grep wine
ii wine-staging 6.5~focal-1 amd64
ii wine-staging-amd64 6.5~focal-1 amd64
ii wine-staging-i386:i386 6.5~focal-1 i386
ii winehq-staging 6.5~focal-1 amd64
I revert back to wine-6.4 (staging) and the script works.

Re: Application could not be started
Yeah, something broke in 6.5. Fix is in for 6.6 though.

OK thanks. I'll skip 6.5 then.

I have question how to revert back to wine 6.4? I have problem with new version as well it stopped working with icon spinning for a while and then nothing also use Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
Re: Application could not be started
First you should, assuming you haven't already, try 6.6 which released Friday and may or may not fix things.
Failing that you can use apt to install older versions by specifying them like so:(add winehq-devel=6.4~focal-1 if you have that installed) ((and replace 'devel' with 'staging' if that's what you use)) (((if you do an 'apt upgrade' after this it will install the latest version unless you 'hold' the packages, you can look up how to do that)))

Code: Select all
sudo apt install wine-devel=6.4~focal-1 wine-devel-i386=6.4~focal-1 wine-devel-amd64=6.4~focal-1

Hi,
I have same problems with the last two release of wine-staging: 6.5 AND 6.6. I remember that the wine-staging 6.4 works and I would like to turning back to this version. I write this code:
Code: Select all
sudo apt install wine-staging=6.4~focal-1 wine-staging-i386=6.4~focal-1 wine-staging-amd64=6.4~focal-1
Code: Select all
codesound@Codesound:~$ sudo apt install wine-staging=6.4~focal-1 wine-staging-i386=6.4~focal-1 wine-staging-amd64=6.4~focal-1
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Version '6.4~focal-1' for 'wine-staging' was not found
E: Version '6.4~focal-1' for 'wine-staging-i386:i386' was not found
E: Version '6.4~focal-1' for 'wine-staging-amd64' was not found
THANKS for now....

Re: Application could not be started
I think 'focal' is the correct version for your Mint version, did you follow the instructions here to install? -> https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu
In any case you can do a 'apt policy wine-staging | head -20' to check which versions apt knows about.

Exists one command that install directly one specific wine-staging version; 6.4 for example?
THANKS AGAIN.....
Re: Application could not be started
You probably still have your distro's wine 5.0 packages installed. If you want you can remove those and install the winehq-staging=6.4~bionic-1 package to make staging the "default". As it is you'll find it in /opt/wine-staging.
Re: Application could not be started
So I skipped 6.5 (staging) then tried 6.6 (staging) but had the same error and had go go back to 6.4 (staging).
Tried 6.7 (staging) today and all is good. I looked through the change log but I have no idea what fixed it.
Thanks again for the great program!!!
