Hi,

I am trying to run a windows application in redhat using wine.
but it is throwing the error like,

Application is tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded.
Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly.

any help in this is really appriciable.

thanks,

Hi, i have a iso file of windows 7 which on mounting to a virtual
machine(UBUNTU MACHINE) gives all the files of iso which contains
setup.exe.
I am trying to launch this setup.exe using wine. but it is throwing me the
error as below.

Windows was unable to create a required installation folder.
Error code : 0x8007007A

any help on this by today itself is highly appreciable.

thanks,

Am I to understand that you're trying to install Windows 7 on Ubuntu using Wine?

That is never going to work, if so. You would be better off looking at VirtualBox or similar virtualization software. Otherwise, you'll need to set up a dual boot,

Otherwise known as an Upgrade disk.
One. it is against Microsoft's EULA, to use this media for an original install.
Second, Wine will not allow you to install Windows.

The solution: Go out and get an original install media.
