DreamWeaver MX

[JohnnieG]

I am running PCLOS2007 with pre-loaded Wine. I finally tried loading MacroMedia Studio MX. FireWorks runs fine, Dreamweaver will not open. Upon installing, there was a message that Dreamweaver required some file. I cannot find that message again.

Any suggestions?

Many thanks.

before posting here,
1. upgrade to latest wine
2. make sure you have read the FAQ and the AppDB entry for the app you want to use.

Since my last post, I have downloaded the most current WINE and read the APPS DB. This version of WINE works very well on my PCLOS2007. I have successfully loaded Photoshop, MS Office and Macromedia MX Studio.

In the Apps DB there are conflicting reports on DreamWeaver. It does not work on my system. Tips, pointers, etc most welcome.

You said it asked for some file. What file is it? Can you run this program from the terminal and attach complete terminal output? Note: don't forget to change directory to where the program is. Ex:

Code: Select all

cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Macromedia/
wine flash.exe

Thank you, Vitamin. I will try to do that this evening after work for you. The file that it calls for is "MDAC" I downloaded the file from MS via my Windows running in dual boot, but was unable to load the file in WINE.

You might need to install mdac28 - see http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks :

Code: Select all

cd ~
wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
sh ./winetricks mdac28
