Sandbox Error Running Wine Live

Post by winepunk »

Again, I have another program that will not run Live with Wine, but if I run it as root it does run. It seems as if this "Running Live" issue is being ignored, although Running Live is a common feature with many Linux distros and is one great security environment vs. Running off hard disk. Yet having to run as root to get apps going in Live environment is occurning with more apps as I try them out.

This time I get "Failed to open, find, or create Sandbox directory". How can I fix this issue? (my other issues have not been solved by the pros and Im forced to do this that the faq sys not to do). I dont want too run it as root. But I need to run it Live.

Who can help me?

Really? The only 'live' packages I can find for Fedora or in the
rpmfusion and atrpms package libraries are:

live555 - a set of libraries for streaming media from
www.live555.com.
live-cd - for making bootable Linux CDs
liveice - an icecast streaming client
lives - a video editing system
liveusb-creator - for making bootable Linux USB memory sticks

and there are no packages with 'running' in the name. None of these are
sandboxes. They can all be used without Wine because of course they're
native packages.

Where did you say this 'Running Live' thing comes from?

URL please.

Don't make more duplicates of your post.
1. Your setup is broken.
2. You should not run wine as root.
3. If Wine works for you on regular install, see (1).

Closing topic.
