OneNote standalone on Ubuntu 20.10

Post by Count_Omega »

Hi all,

I managed to successfully install the onenote standalone on Ubuntu. The install went off without a hitch. But when I start the program I get the following error:
" You must enable the desktop view before you start OneNote. Here's how: Open the Control Panel, navigate to "Programs and Features," and then click "Enable or Disable Windows Features." " This topic viewtopic.php?t=23126 found a solution by installing the SP1 for office. However, if I install KB3115419 I get following error: "No products are affected by the package installed on this system." Has anyone an idea how I could get this running? Thanks in advance

Known bug: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47135. There's a hack attached to the bug report if you're up to patching and building Wine yourself.

Thanks for your reply. So if I edit the builtin.c and then build wine from source I should be able to run it?

Just a regular user here, but yes, either apply that patch via the "patch" command, or manually apply the changes then build.

Just for testing purposes, I installed 64-bit Office 2016, which went fine. I then copied the appvisvsubsystems64.dll and the c2r64.dll into the Office install directory. When running wine64 excel.exe I get a screen reading "Updating Office..". Then wine runs into the following error:

Code: Select all

err:module:LdrInitializeThunk "AppVIsvSubsystems64.dll" failed to initialize, aborting.
Can I fix this or is Office not meant to run on 64 bit in wine?

A reboot fixed this. Now I´ve got to activate it somehow.

I started building wine4-7. At first, the build crashed at /dlls/crypt32. Then I downgraded to gcc-9. Now it compiled further, but I still get the following error:

Code: Select all

wine-dirs/wine64-build/dlls/msi/tests/../../../../wine-source/dlls/msi/tests/utils.h:24: multiple definition of `CURR_DIR';
....
This is wher the build stops. What can I do to fix this?

Seems to work when using gcc 8.
Edit: nevermind, same error.
