Re: iexplorer 7 not resolving URLs
Your Wine versions is almost 3 years old and no longer supported. Upgrade to the latest development release.
Re: iexplorer 7 not resolving URLs
Well, my distro too is old, and to update the packages would be a mess, I've done it once and it killed my nvidia proprietary driver, so I had to roll it back. It's been annoying...dimesio wrote:Your Wine versions is almost 3 years old and no longer supported. Upgrade to the latest development release.
Furthermore I'd bet if I'd go to latest wine, I'd have same issue. It looks like it depends by some settings in my networking (routing, NATting, or whatever): for example if I enter a VPN all the intranet sites are browseable by ie, but external keep being not resolved. The issue is not being able to get DNS responses and I have that lib 32 for the dns which is mentioned in the wine FAQs, so I wonder if someone already had same issue, maybe with other applications...
Re: iexplorer 7 not resolving URLs
How did you install IE7? It should be installed with winetricks, which adds overrides needed to make it work (somewhat). If you didn't install it with winetricks, try that (in a clean wineprefix). https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34049
Re: iexplorer 7 not resolving URLs
Yes, I installed it with Winetricks. Also note, if it may be relevant, that I've a game (eve online) that works perfectly with wine and can access the internet without problems.dimesio wrote:How did you install IE7?
