Can't get Ankhbot R2 to run on wine.

[irdumb]

I'm trying to get Ankhbot R2 to run on wine. I'm on a mac and have it running with Parallels currently, but would like to get it running with less overhead.

The developer said that so long as it had .NET 4.5 that it should work.
I got a wine prefix with dotnet45 installed and was able to successfully install Ankhbot into Application Data (apparently it needs to be there to run properly)

When I run the .exe however, no GUI shows up and I get a repeating:

Code: Select all

err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x7bcaa9a4 "loader.c: loader_section" wait timed out in thread 0041, blocked by 0009, retrying (60 sec)

It uses an Awesomium GUI? i'm thinking that may be getting in the way?

here's a more detailed output. http://pastebin.com/BbANF74f

I have wine-1.7.55

here's a link to the program: http://marcinswierzowski.com/Code/AnkhBotR2/

I'm super new to all this, but apparently at least one person has gotten it running on linux with wine, so I assumed I just didn't know what I was doing. Any help is greatly appreciated

I found an error log in the AnkhbotR2 folder while trying to get it running again.

oh and here's a new output link. I forgot I put an expiration date on the old one. http://pastebin.com/W5eMNgNM


Any help at all is greatly appreciated. I've tried putting in corefonts and msvc100 alongside dotnet45, but I don't think anything is changing.

Thank you

I got it to appear finally!
Putting it on a fresh install of Wine 1.7.55 did the trick.
the newest version of Ankhbot requires vcrun2013

I got 2 major problems though..

1. If I try to run it with the 2nd monitor plugged in, I get a hot CPU and this

2. I get a bunch of weird graphical / font issues without the 2nd monitor plugged in.

lots of screens flashing back and forth. They seem to be flashing based on the cursor blink time.

The Buttons above are invisible or flash into view when I move the mouse to random places.

The other windows (like login window) that open up also have these graphical issues or are plain black.

Has anybody seen these types of problems before? Do you know how to fix them?

Thanks
