I am trying to start a taxonomical application under Ubuntu (http://delta-intkey.com/win32/delt32.exe)

if I run the following command the application starts:

Code: Select all

WINEDEBUG=+relay,+seh,+tid wine delta.exe &> /tmp/output.txt

if I then open a new database (or open an existing one) the application stops at the following line:

Code: Select all

171954 0009:Ret  KERNEL32.GetACP() retval=000004e4 ret=2004083d

171962 0009:Ret  user32.SendMessageA() retval=000000bf ret=005ac510

I do not understand what it i trying to do or what is it waiting for. Any tips?

First, upgrade to the latest development release; 1.3.8 should be out today. If that doesn't fix it post plain console output, without any WINEDEBUG channels.

I downloaded the app; winetricks riched20 enables it to open the sample file. I didn't test beyond that; tested in 1.3.7.
