Problem accessing internet with EMDB on Linux Mint 20.2

Post by fguarneri »

Hello all, I installed EMDB {https://www.emdb.eu/} , a movie database that needs access to the internet. After installation it says it cannot access internet to update and to check your internet connection, proxy or firewall.
Can you please help to to resolve this?

I am using Linux Mint 20.2 and the latest Wine app.

Thank you for your attention in this matter.

Hi, I'm just a user here so feel free to ignore my input. I did try EMDB on my setup and did not get any error messages you described, but I did not attempt to do anything in the app. You can try something like, "wine iexplore http://www.google.com" and see if internet explorer can connect to google.

Exactly what Wine version are you using? People often think they have "the latest" when they don't.

EMDB works fine for me in wine-6.12, which is the current development release.
