Wine 1.2 on Mac Leopard, Civ4 startup error "Failed Ini

Michael Collins · Post by **Michael Collins** » Thu Aug 26, 2010 7:01 pm

Hi all,

I'm hoping that someone has seen this one before. I am trying to get
Civ4 working in Wine 1.2 on my Mac and I get so far as the stage where
it initializes Python and it fails. I've attached the log at the end
of this transmission. It's relatively short as these things go. I can
see at least one error: 'import site' failed; use -v for traceback but
I have no clue as to how to resolve that in this situation.

Any input would be most welcome.

Where did you get your version of Wine?

What happens when you open the terminal program from the Applications ->
Utilities folder?

(You should get a welcome screen and a Python promt >>>>. If you do,
type quit() to exit.)

Sourceforge download

Do you mean the Mac terminal window or something else? I'm using the
Mac terminal program to launch wine. I don't see anywhere that I would
get a Python prompt, especially since Python is embedded in Civ4.

Yes that is what I meant.

Ok. No Python prompt then.

Where did you get your version of Wine? If it was from MacPorts or Fink, they have python installation packages you will have to get from them. If not, I'm at a loss where you can get it.

Also, please keep the conversation on the Wine Users list. I am but one volunteer and there are hundreds that read the list and can assist when I cannot.

I downloaded source from sourceforge.net and built it manually. It was
my understanding that the Python in Civ4 was embedded and that you did
not need to download it separately, although I'm sure I could do that.
I'll investigate.

Apologies! On my other mailing lists I just hit "reply" instead of
"reply all" and it goes to the list address. Old habits. Thanks for
letting me know.

I appreciate your assistance.
