.exe install shield dont finish

Post by Schebi »

Hello,

I'm new in forum and also at using wine.
I have an older macbook pro with ElCapitan and want to run Creo-Elements-Modellingsoftware.

Now i installed xquartz and wine 4.0, downloaded the .exe and doubleclicked on it.
The .exe will start the installshield.
After that a window appears that it stopped without full installation and i have to finish with start the installshield a second time.

Nothing happens, always the same window and i dont know what is my failure.

Thanks for helping me!
Regards from Austria,
Schebi

First the current Wine-Stable is 4.0.1

Second don’t launch via double clicking and expect it to work, you need to launch the “Wine Stable” application, then a new terminal window will open, now type;

Code: Select all

wine /path/to/my/program.exe
An actual real example on my system would be;

Code: Select all

wine /users/gcenx/downloads/setup.exe
Now while your trying to run the installer it will give you a lot of information, now when it crashes you wan to copy all the information from Terminal into a text document and attach here so we can look over it and possibly offer advice on how to get the application working.

Just double clicking won’t give any debut information meaning nobody. An even try to help you, unless they are famialiwr with the application already.

Hello Gcenx,

thanks for your answer, but at trying this, the same problem comes out.

On Debian Linux I get the same error, but I can get to the activation window with:
- Wine 4.9
- 32-bit Wineprefix
- winetricks dotnet20sp2 wsh57

I’m not sure I was going to say so what @jkfloris said but it didn’t work for them so I’m not sure without testing it myself.

I would have thought what’s you have done would have gotten it working strange
