Absolute n00bie needs help on error mesage

err:seh:raise_exception Exception frame is not in stack limits => unable to dispatch exception.

This is the message I get
I am running wine under lucid puppy 5.1.1 and the wine version is 1.1.43, inside VMWare Player

Is there any way this may be resolved by perhaps some arguments to wine ?
Thanks

This version is WAY OLD. Is there a particular reason that you are
trying to run this version?

no particular reason
if updating may allow me to run my program then I would like to update as well
can you give me any idea on how to do this?
I am a beginner so I'm still learning about these things

Check the downloads page at:

http://www.winehq.org/download/
You need the package for Lucid.

If you need assistance installing Wine in your particular distribution,
first search the forums and then ask for assistance on your
distribution's forum pages. I don't use Linux (right now) to run Wine,
so I would be unable to help you, but there are others that do and might
be able to.

I have seen that page already and couldn't find the link for my Puppy Linux
Anyway I managed to download the tar.bz2 of Wine 1.3 (I think it is a beta version) and after extraction and execution of ./configure and issur=eing the make command, it is currently in the process of compiling Wine and is taking longer than I thought
Anyway I will update this thread if I have any problems later
Thank you for your help

Finally after almost 45 minutes of compiling and using almost 800MB of hard space, Wine build is completed
But how do I use it now?
I thought all I had to do was type wine <filename> and it would work, but it seems this is not the case

sudo make install

This is the way.

I tried typing install but it says "missing file operand"
Puppy Linux does not have the sudo command, everything is root by default

If everything is root by default, then a simple make install should
put the files where they expect to be. However, I'm not familiar with
Puppy, so this may not work properly. Sorry that I cannot provide
further information but maybe someone who is using Puppy can.

thank you for your replys
I have consulted the puppy forums and found a .pet package for Wine so it's working now
Just one thing I don't understand though, when I compiled Wine it took almost 800MB of hard disk space. When I install the same version through .pet package the required space is much lesser
Why should that happen?

The installation creates object files which are linked together into
dynamically loaded files and executables. The distribution file
eliminates them.

I am glad that you found an updated Wine package and that it works for
your needs.

I'm sorry if I am just bothring you, but I have another question

mahaju · Post by **mahaju** » Tue Jul 12, 2011 9:21 am

I tried to run my exe file in this new updated wine (1.3) in puppy and it still shows the same error (although I'm sure Wine is installed properly)
However, I installed Lubuntu in VMWare (and it's so much easier to get Wine in Lubuntu )

and now the same exe file is working easily here, when the wine version is same here (1.3)
So what's up with this?

PS: By the way, how do I edit my post in this forum??

Don't know. This may be a question to ask the Puppy Linux folks.
Each distribution of Linux does things a little different.

You cannot edit posts. See the sticky on the reasons why.
