Mapped network drive in wine.
Mapped network drive in wine.
First sorry for my bad English.
I have a Windows software that needs to access a mapped network drive in Wine complains that he does not view the network drive (it needs to see this: / / server / folder).
I tried to map the network drive using explorer.exe of Wine, but when I access the menu in "mapping the network drive" complains the error: "No network drive."
I looked around the internet and not found the solution, somebody knows how fix this?
I use the Ubuntu 9:04 with Wine 1.1.21.

If you are attempting to access UNC formatted drives, Wine does not do this, directly. You can map in Wine to a lettered drive, the results from Samba.I have a Windows software that needs to access a mapped network drive in Wine complains that he does not view the network drive (it needs to see this: / / server / folder).
This is not supported, yet.I tried to map the network drive using explorer.exe of Wine, but when I access the menu
in "mapping the network drive" complains the error: "No network drive."

Re: Mapped network drive in wine.
Mount it using samba then point Wine there mapping one of the drives to that mount in winecfg.petter wrote:I have a Windows software that needs to access a mapped network drive in Wine complains that he does not view the network drive (it needs to see this: / / server / folder).
If you can't convince this app to use disk instead of UNC path, then it might or might not work:
Code: Select all
mkdir -p ~/.wine/dosdevices/unc/server
ln -s /mnt/server_folder ~/.wine/dosdevices/unc/server/folder
If you are *ONLY* using Wine to map the network drive then this is not necessary. You can just map the drive with the mount command. Something like this would do the trick (assuming the directory /mnt/windows already exists):
Code: Select all
mount -t smbfs -o username=Administrator,password=yourPasswordHere //server/folder /mnt/windows
Thank you all for the reply, I already have done the following in my fstab I have the server mapped as follows:
Thus, in Wine I can open and use the files from the server without problems.
The major difficulty is that my ERP (which can not be changed) search some files (such images, text, etc) using the path:
Wine And obviously he is not in this way.
But if there is no way, anyone know any other app for Linux (Ubuntu) I can run this ERP and finally banned from my Windows computer?
Very thanks for help me.

Not yet, but keep on checking back. Look through Wine's BugZilla to see if you can find a bug related to the use of UNC paths in Wine. Create a bugzilla login and vote for the bug.Wine And obviously he is not in this way.
I don't think you gave us the program name, but you search the Web you might find a Linux based replacement.But if there is no way, anyone know any other app for Linux (Ubuntu) I can run this ERP and

You are very welcome. Sorry that we do not have a solution for your problem today.Very thanks for help me.

my erp is also build on Oracle. Fortunately the paths have not been defined in the individual objects like fetching logo. instead everything is available in application folder. I mapped that application folder as a drive in wine and run the erp, but it is not fetching those files.
then i copied whole application on \home and everything is working smoothly. now its impossible for me to copy application to each and every desktop computer in order to use ERP from wine.
I seek guidance in this regard

Sorry to revive the topic, but I found the solution of the problem for this type of network mapping in Wine, just follow the link http://www.viamais.net/blog/?p=1361 and see the solution.
Tested and seems to work 100%.
Thanks to everyone for help.
