The Tournament Director 2 won't run

Post by bun.tu »

Hello there,

I'm using "The Tournament Director" for my job, and i'd like to use it at my ubuntu-machine at home as well.

You can get the software at http://www.thetournamentdirector.net/download.html (free 30 day-trial)

It installed without problems, but when i tried to use it, nothing would happen. - I copied the necessary "mshta.exe" into the "system32" directory of my wine installation, now when i try to run TD.exe i get:

Code: Select all

fixme:process:RegisterApplicationRestart (L"\"ms-its:TD.lib::/directorFS.hta\"",0)
fixme:mshtml:RunHTMLApplication 0x1000000 (nil) "\"ms-its:TD.lib::/directorFS.hta\"" 10
I'm using ubuntu 8.04 and wine 1.1.5 without any modifications.

Has anyone had more luck with this software?

Thanks a lot in advance!

The download page you linked to says explicitly that Internet Explorer 6 or greater and Windows Media Player 7 or greater must be installed for this app to function.

It says WMP is only necessary for the sounds. - And i guess it needs the mshta.exe - part of Internet Explorer. It's used to run compiled .hta webapps.

But just to be sure, i installed IE6 on my ubuntu, the error-message didn't change. - I used a script specifically made for ubuntu, but i'm gonna try the one from the link you gave me as well and see if there's a difference.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Edit: OK, turned out to be the very same script i used for installing IE6 - so no difference.
