Printing Under Wine

Post by raja_s_patil »

Hi,

I am Trying to Run My Own Developed Application
in Wine. It works Fine as Far as Interface and Screen
Functionality is Concerned. Development is Done
with Delphi 5 under WinXP. All Sources are with me
and I can change/Compile at any time since I got
Delphi 5 working Under wine.

I am Using Printer Spooler API and when Application
tries to print to PDF Printer then It goes in Queue
I can see a Tray Icon where I can see those jobs
with status initially "PROCESSING" and Then "HELD"
I tried to release it but PDF is Not Created.

The CUPS-PDF-LOG has Following Line.

Sat Aug 23 09:19:00 2008 [ERROR] failed to open source stream

I am Using KUbuntu 8.0.4.1 with latest Upgrades
and wine 1.1.2.

Thanks And Best Regards

I saw that error failed to open source stream when I checked a log file from a failed MS office 2007 installation under wine. I remedied it by going into wine and under libraries specifying the remote procedure call library rpcrt4.dll and set the override to run native windows. I don't know if it would remedy your particular problem but maybe something to try.

Printing was broken in 1.1.2 for 64 bit Kubuntu 8.04. Try upgrading to 1.1.3.

Well I use KUbuntu 32 bit and Just upgraded to 1.1.3
I saw that error failed to open source stream when I checked a log file from a failed MS office 2007 installation under wine.

Well I upgraded to wine1.1.3 and used rpcrt4 as native
(Copied from WinXP Partition) but the problem is still there

any other suggestions ?

BTW where can I find more information on Printing
under wine so that I can dig further.

Thanks and Best Regards
