Money 2004 installed, but crashing

[dwatrous]

Hello,

I've gotten Microsoft Money installed and it will start up and then crash. It shows a dialog that says "Converting file" and they I get the dialog that says "this app needs to close" and a checkbox to restart the application.

Others have reported successfully running this application in wine and I wonder if they had to edit the registry or something.

I'm running wine 1.2 rc2 on Mac OSX 10.6.3.

Any help appreciated.

To get any chance of help you need to post useful output like a terminal log.

I'm still hoping to get a little help with this. Can someone give me an idea of what to try next?

[dimesio]

How did you install this? Any overrides? If so, what?
Did you cd to the program directory before trying to run it?

Microsoft's crash handler is intercepting the crash. Try setting dw20.exe to disabled in winecfg. That's the crash handler in Office, and I'm assuming it's the same for Money.

[dwatrous]

I installed it from the original software CD. I didn't do any overrides. It installed a bunch of stuff that it needed, like IE and so on.

I did cd into the directory before calling: wine msmoney.exe

I went into Libraries in winecfg and typed in the dw20.exe and disabled it, but the MS crash handler is still taking over. I did a quick search but can't figure out what else I would try to disable.

Does IE work. You probably wanted to install that using winetricks
instead of letting the cd do that for you.

I can launch IE, but it only shows the wine homepage. I don't see the rest of the interface.

I've now gone back and reinstalled IE6 using winetricks.

IE6 works great, but money is still crashing.

I know this thread is pretty old but has anybody gotten MS Money 2004 to run? I am not able to get it to run on Fedora 14 with Wine 1.3.12. It crashes with similar errors posted in this thread. I'm just trying to get Money working enough to help somebody migrate their data to GNUCash.

Thanks!

I'm just trying to get Money working enough to help somebody migrate their data to GNUCash.

Why can't they just export the data in Windows and copy the file to Linux?

As far as getting Money 2004 to run, the AppDB has a report saying it works in Wine 1.2. http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... n&iId=2728

The report mentions using ies4linux, which is not supported here. Don't use it; use winetricks to install ie6.

With Wine 1.2.3, after using winetricks to install ie6 and msxml3, Microsoft Money 2004 UK Edition (version 12.0) running just fine in Ubuntu 10.

Can you update the Applications Database and can you try this on a later
version of Wine (1.3.26 is the latest development release) to see if it
still runs and needs IE6 and msxml3?
