Ableton Live 10 installer won't launch

Post by deusnovus »

After setting up the Ableton Live (Application) bottle within Bottles, going through the Install Programs menu, choose the latest setup.msi file, I get this error upon executing the Ableton Live via Terminal:

Code: Select all

wineserver: using server-side synchronization.
wine: RLIMIT_NICE is <= 20, unable to use setpriority safely
002c:err:wineboot:process_run_key Error running cmd L"C:\\windows\\system32\\winemenubuilder.exe -r" (2).
Application could not be started, or no application associated with the specified file.
ShellExecuteEx failed: Path not found.
I'm on Fedora 38 and the Ableton Live version is 10.1.43 (64-bit). Any suggestions would be really appreciated, thank you.

The error message indicates that setup.msi cannot be found.
I don't know how to fix this in Bottles. According to the manual you could use:

Code: Select all

bottles -b bottle_name -e /full/executable/path
With Wine you can use:

Code: Select all

cd "/path/to/setup/directory/"
wine msiexec /i setup.msi
# or
wine start /unix "/path/to/setup.msi"

Thank you for your help. I think it might be a Bottles bug, cause launching with the command line above (with or without Terminal enabled) doesn't do anything nor can I get an error output, since Terminal also doesn't launch. Very bizarre, I was able to launch this file seamlessly through an older Bottles version.
