I am trying to install windows apps and run them but every time I do I get a "serious error" no error number but this is what comes up on the terminal screen:
Could someone please help.

There should be a bit more. What you posted earlier had the formatting
foobar'ed, and it's hard to read.

To tell you the truth I don't even remember how I got that error.

I tried to cd to it but I couldn't get it right. I just dragged the modo.exe file into the terminal. I will try again.

I hope this is what you needed.

You can see how I had to try different things to get it to work. I am not much of a coder.

Run this:

Code: Select all

cd /home/shawn/.wine/dosdevices/c:/ProgramFiles/Luxology/
wine modo.exe

kd0afk · Post by **kd0afk** » Wed May 13, 2009 9:29 am

I tried the code you posted and this is the return:

shawn@shawn-laptop:~$ cd /home/shawn/.wine/dosdevices/c:/ProgramFiles/Luxology/wine modo.exe
bash: cd: /home/shawn/.wine/dosdevices/c:/ProgramFiles/Luxology/wine: No such file or directory
shawn@shawn-laptop:~$

This is the path to the directory where modo.exe lives:

/home/shawn/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/Luxology/modo 302

Sorry to be so dense about this but like I said, I am not much of a coder, but I'm learnin'

I keep trying it but I think it's the space between "Program" and "Files" that is causing the trouble. I tried putting in an underscore, typing it in as one word and other things, but nothing helps.

Put quotation marks around the entire path.

I keep trying it but I think it's the space between "Program" and "Files" that is causing the
trouble. I tried putting in an underscore, typing it in as one word and other things, but nothing
helps.

You can do the following:

"C:\Program Files\Program Directory\program name.exe"

so that the line looks like:

WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.wine_prefix_example wine "C:\Program Files\Program Directory\program name.exe"

This should run the program in the Prefix you installed it into.

Thanks for the help. Too bad it wasn't a quick fix though. Bugzilla is down for the moment. I will file the bug when it comes up.
It must be a bug with wine though because the same error comes up on every program I try to run in it.

Notepad works but that's it.

What other programs have the same error, then? Does notepad show that
crash as well?
