MetaEditor does not load

Post by din99 »

Since 1.1.38 i cant open it, tried with latest 1.1.41 too:

Having troubles to start MetaEditor:

- from Mt4 clicking on icon : try to open for a few seconds then silently close

- from console:

oem@dub:~$ wine metaeditor
wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\metaeditor.exe"

of course path is wrong, should be:
/home/oem/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/MetaTrader

- into the path above: double clicking on terminal.exe start Mt4 but clicking on MetaEditor.exe does nothing (same rights for both)

Don't understand what's happen.

Yes, the path is wrong, so navigate to the directory and start it from there, or run it with the full path in the command line:

wine "C:\\Program Files\\MetaTrader\\metaeditor.exe"
or
wine "/home/oem/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/MetaTrader/metaeditor.exe"

I cannot see where in your first post you say typed, into a terminal
wine "/home/oem/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/MetaTrader/metaeditor.exe"

You said no such thing. Read your own post.
