Ms Word 2010 cannot register to wordprcomess.

Post by azangr »

Hi Everyone.
Thank you for the gr8 emulator you have given me. I have petty much configured it to suit my needs but this one , escapes me completely.
I want to use word 2010 as my blogging client for my wordpress blog(s). I ve used it before (when I was on Win7) and presently in my ubuntu 12.04 LTS running playonlinux 4.1.8 and wine 1.5.3.
Now Word complaints that it cannot register to my blogs. I m sure that Wine can communicate with the internet using my outlook 2007 email client ( enslaved into using it).Btw Outlook 2010 crashes when trying to fetch/read the IMAP emails. it D/Ls the headers nicely but crashes on open.
Is there a lib or another setting I need to adjust or add to the winecfg?
Currenlty my DLL overrides are
*msvcr80 (native,builtin)
*msxml6(native)
*riched20(native)
*urlmon(native, builtin)


Any help/input is welcome. Thanks in advance

The failure to register blog accounts is a known bug: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25509

As for everything else, your Wine version is old and the script POL uses to install Office 2010 uses unnecessary and unsupported overrides. If you want help here, reinstall to a clean wineprefix using the latest development release of plain Wine and following the instructions in the AppDB.
