Help with Fluenz on wine
Help with Fluenz on wine
I switched to linux and there is no native linux app for Fluenz language program.
I installed my dvd to wine and it loads fine but I have to login to connect first before the lessons are available.
It says "No Internet? It appears you are not connected to internet. You need to be online to continue. Come back when you are up and running."
All my other Internet programs are working in wine, so I'm not sure how to get it working.
Is there any way to check a log or debug information to see what it needs? I am fairly new to wine so sorry about my lack of knowledge.
I do see a lot of libraries in the installation directory.
Does wine automatically use these or do I need to move them to another directory? Most of them are QT5 libraries. Is there a way to install QT5 support?
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
Found out how to activate logging in Fluenz itself and here is a section of the log which may explain why the network connection is not working.
Can any gurus interpret this logging output for me?

Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
What wine version are you running?
A wine log would be more useful, I guess.
Is there a free trial?

Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
Hello and thanks for the reply. I am using wine-stable 3.0.1ubuntu1 from the Linux Lite 4.2 distro.
There is no trial that I am aware of but here is the install iso. It installs fine, but cannot connect to the Internet to validate login credentials. Without credentials it can't be used any further so it's not a problem to post it and anyway the problem is before that anyway.

Also, here is the log and debug trace for the Fluenz program. Thanks for the help!

Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
I get the exact same issue on my windows machine. I'm afraid I can't help here, since there is no visible wine error.
Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
Do you mean a native Windows machine? It does require Windows 10. It works perfectly on my Windows 10 drive. It is only under Wine on my new Linux installation that it doesn't connect. I have wine configured to run this app as Windows 10, but no luck.

Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
Ok, it works on my Win10 machine. It never said it requires Win10, so I used by Win7 machine - where it does not work. It appears to use some Win10 functions, please open a bugreport for this issue if there is none yet.

Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
Created a bugreport here: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46402
Also mentioned a workaround, in dns_do_query you can force res_query to always use T_A as DNS type.

Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
Oh thanks for the workaround. How do I set the dns_do_query to force res_query to always use T_A? Could you give me the steps to do that?DarkShadow44 wrote:Created a bugreport here: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46402

Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
Do you know how to build Wine from source? You need to for the workaround, I attached a patch at the bugreport.
Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
No, I've never built it.DarkShadow44 wrote:Do you know how to build Wine from source? You need to for the workaround, I attached a patch at the bugreport.
Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
Does it matter which source version I compile to patch? I don't see a source download in my package manager so I assume must download from somewhere. My distro Linux Lite has 3.0.1ubuntu1.

Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
For info on how to build wine, see https://wiki.winehq.org/Building_Wine. A simple 32bit build is fine.
Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
Could you send me a binary with the changes? I am not too good with compiling programs. I can send you a paypal donation for your work.
Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
Following the wiki I downloaded the source from git, but when I run the dependency check
I get
So I ran ./configure by itself and get:

Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
installed libc6-dev-i386 and it moved configure past the error.
But then I get:
But then I get:
Can find a package for 32-bit Xlib in my distro. Any suggestions?configure: error: X 32-bit development files not found. Wine will be built
without X support, which probably isn't what you want. You will need
to install 32-bit development packages of Xlib at the very least.
Use the --without-x option if you really want this.

Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
Attaching a binary to work around the issue.
Just drop the dll inside the zip into ".wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Fluenz/bin/", or wherever you installed it. Should fix the issue just like that.
Let me know if it works.

Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
Thanks, but it still says not connected to internet.
Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
I copied to drive_c\windows\system32 also but no luck. I went to winecfg to add an override for the dll for Fluenz and tried all options but no luck.

Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
You put the dnsapi.dll right next to Fluenz.exe ?
Can you try to update to wine-3.21 and check again? Because 3.0.1 doesn't work for me either.

Yes, I will try that. Thanks again.
Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
Ok I followed the instructions here: https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu for Ubuntu 18.04 and set it up with which installed wine-4.0-rc4 (Staging). Is that ok? I couldn't find a way to make it install wine-3.21.
I set my wine prefix and arch with: and installed wine-mono when it asked.
I used and it listed wine-gecko (32-bit) 2.47 under programs so I manually installed the 64-bit version with .
Then I mounted the Fluenz.iso and installed it. Before running I copied over your dnsapi.dll to the Fluenz install directory. Now I could login!
However 2 problems. When the program is run and I log in, it prompts for an update to the program. It starts to download and the progress bar gets about 90% done and then the program closes. Here is the debug log for this problem.

Next, if I skip the update, I can choose a lesson. It downloads the lesson fine, but when I select it to view the media it says:
Here is the debug log for this problem.

I also tried all the steps above with a clean win32 prefix and had the same results. Thanks for you help with this.
Code: Select all
sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-staging
I set my wine prefix and arch with:
Code: Select all
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine WINEARCH="win64" winecfg
I used
Code: Select all
wine control
Code: Select all
wine msiexec -i ./wine_gecko-2.47-x86_64.msi

Sure, good enough.timbuck2 wrote:wine-4.0-rc4 (Staging). Is that ok? I couldn't find a way to make it install wine-3.21.
For the update, you could try making a win32 WINEPREFIX and running "winetricks -q ie8".
For the video, this is probably due to mfplat.dll. You could try a native dll from a win7 machine, but not sure how that would work out... I can't test since I don't have an account.
Re: Help with Fluenz on wine
Ok, I will try that about ie8.
It does require windows10. Should I get the mfplat.dll from there or windows7? I have both native operating systems on my machine alongside linux.

You can try, but not sure if that just works.
