Wine + Debian + utorrent

[s05]

Hi guys, complete Linux noob here... I've got a seedbox running utorrent. Recently there was a crash of utorrent and since then I have not been able to reopen the program. I have updated to utorrent 1.8 using:

wget http://download.utorrent.com/1.8/utorrent.exe

When I go to open utorrent now using:

wine utorrent.exe

It comes up with the installation screen rather than just opening as a stand alone program like it has in the past. If I then click install, the screen disappears and I get loads of crap in the command line window:

Code: Select all

s05@ks300565:~$ wine utorrent_1.7.7.exe
fixme:msvcrt:__lconv_init  stub

and then it just keeps repeating that.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks again.

When running from the terminal, first cd to the directory where the exe is located.

Why are you using the exe for 1.7.7 when you say you have updated to 1.8?

I was trying an older version of utorrent to see if it made any difference. It didn't.

I tried changing directory to the correct one, and I don't think it's made any difference. Any other things I might be doing wrong?

Try a fresh install to a clean wineprefix.
