Wineprefix

[mikon29]

Hello,

i try to set 32 bit wineprefix but fails:

Code: Select all

[josy1982@fedora Programme]$ WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine winecfg
wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\wineboot.exe"
err:process:start_wineboot failed to start wineboot, err 2
fixme:msg:pack_message msg 14 (WM_ERASEBKGND) not supported yet

anybody an idea?

sounds like your wineprefix is messed up... did you delete ~/.wine and let Wine create it by itself?

Then do the following:

WINEPREFIX=$HOME/wine32 WINEARCH=win32 wine winecfg.

You can set this in your environment by exporting the two variables:

export WINEPREFIX=$HOME/wine32
export WINEARCH=win32

Before running any program that requires a 32 bit Wine Prefix.
