Installing .msiexec file
Installing .msiexec file
Hi. Newbie here. Read that Wine 1.2 will run .msiexec files and the
way to install it is as user in terminal window: cd Desktop, then type
msiexec /i filename. Is that right or should I do something else?
Thanks. Bob

This is what I got from cd to the desktop and then followed your
instructions as you can see. What is next? The program is a video
conferencing and the full name is ispq9.msi and it's on the desktop.
Thanks again. Bob
benjie1@benjie1:~$ cd Desktop/cd to the dir where you downloaded the file. If that's ~/Desktop, cd there, otherwise cd to that other dir.
That command should be good. If it doesn't work, wine start filename.msi works too.

The output indicated that the file did indeed run (there's some actual Wine output there), but something somehow failed when Wine tried to run the installer.
I don't know what, though... I did a Google search on that last line and it only came with unsolved forum threads. You could go to bugs.winehq.org and file a bug about this (but make sure you search around if someone else didn't report something similar first).

Thanks. Will look around a then maybe file a bug like you said. That
won't solve the problem however. Still won't be able to install it I
guess. Thanks Bob

Installing .msiexec file
Hi Vitamin. I did try to run it as user in Ubuntu 10.04 and the
installer never opened. I will paste the terminal output here from both
ways I tried to run it. Also, I have a Solitaire game here (exe file)
and you experts told me to get the installer to work, set the emulator
in wine to Win 98. Did that and it's fine. Will that matter with the msi
file. I'm trying to run ispq9.msi which is on the Desktop. It's a video
conferencing program. Here's the terminal output as user. Thanks Newbie

Re: Installing .msiexec file
It will matter if the app requires a newer version of Windows, which is likely. Set it back to XP and see what happens.Bob Benjamin wrote:I have a Solitaire game here (exe file)

Windows versions can be set on a per-app basis in winecfg. Add your solitaire game to the Applications tab, select it, and set the Windows version just for that game. Keep the default global setting as XP, because that works best for most apps.
Installing .msiexec file
Thanks dimesio. The solitaire is fine with win 98 but tried XP
with the .msi file and get no installer at all no matter what I do. A
bit discouraging since I read that wine will run the msi file. Thanks
again. Bob

Forgot, it's from NanoCorp and I sent the link previously. As
far as the name goes, I think it's called "I speak to you" or something
like that. They have a trial version. Could that be tried by you experts
in Wine to see if the installer will come up. I cant get it at all. I cd
Desktop, then msiexec /i ispq9.msi Have sent the terminal output of
that command to you earlier. Thanks again. Bob

Installing .msiexec file
More info. In Wine, clicking Drive_C brings up a box with "files of
type" and a drop down arrow. The only files there are .exe and .exe.so
Nothing else drops down. No .msi. Adding the ispq9.msi doesn't help.
Wonder if this means Wine doesn't accept or know about the .msi. If this
is a dumb question. it's because I'm a Newbie and really just guessing.
Tks for the help and patience! Bob

I downloaded the file and got the same results as you. File a bug.

OK Will do. Any chance that it would work in Fedora fc 13?
