Try native msxml4; the easiest way to install it is with winetricks.

Code: Select all

wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
sh winetricks msxml4

ooops, spoke too soon :(
it now logs me in but I still get - fixme:shdocvw:WebBrowser_Stop (0x15ef78)
when I try to view a market, and then it repeats at every refresh. (which could be because the market as not loaded). It's supposed to run on :- Operation system: Windows 98/Me or Windows NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista.

It's not working fine, It's not loading the markets.
It looks like betfair website with all the markets on the left side. when I select an event such as a horse race, it should show the field in the main window just like betfair. But it doesn't, and then every 3 seconds I get the "fixme:shdocvw:WebBrowser_Stop (0x15ef78)" 3 seconds is what the refresh is currently set to.
error from console is:-

fixme:toolhelp:CreateToolhelp32Snapshot Unimplemented: heap list snapshot
fixme:toolhelp:Heap32ListFirst : stub
fixme:toolhelp:CreateToolhelp32Snapshot Unimplemented: heap list snapshot
fixme:toolhelp:Heap32ListFirst : stub
fixme:shdocvw:PersistStreamInit_Load (0x167458)->(0x1b9048)
fixme:shdocvw:OleControl_OnAmbientPropertyChange Unknown dispID -1
fixme:shdocvw:WebBrowser_Stop (0x167458)
fixme:shdocvw:WebBrowser_Stop (0x167458)
fixme:shdocvw:WebBrowser_Stop (0x167458)
fixme:shdocvw:WebBrowser_Stop (0x167458)
fixme:shdocvw:OleObject_Close (0x167458)->(1)

This is the first time I've used wine, so I'm not too sure what to do. I've already added fairbot to the applications in wine config and tried different os's. under libraries I added a new override for shdocvw which put me back to where I started. so I've disabled that and reloaded msxml4. I don't think it's far away from working and I don't want to mess it up completely. So any help would be appreciated. :)

When you added the override for shdocvw, did you also copy a real shdocvw.dll to Wine's fake windows\system32 directory?

ah, no I didn't. So I've done that now. I copied it from a up to date win xp drive. now I get this:-

wine "c:\Program Files\FairBot\FairBot.exe"
fixme:shell:StopWatchMode () stub!
fixme:shell:SHCreateShellPalette stub
fixme:wininet:InternetSetOptionW Option INTERNET_OPTION_RESET_URLCACHE_SESSION: STUB
fixme:toolhelp:CreateToolhelp32Snapshot Unimplemented: heap list snapshot
fixme:toolhelp:Heap32ListFirst : stub
fixme:toolhelp:CreateToolhelp32Snapshot Unimplemented: heap list snapshot
fixme:toolhelp:Heap32ListFirst : stub
wine: Call from 0x7b844f90 to unimplemented function shlwapi.dll.IConnectionPoint_InvokeWithCancel, aborting
fixme:wininet:InternetSetOptionW Option INTERNET_OPTION_END_BROWSER_SESSION: STUB
fixme:wininet:InternetSetOptionW Option INTERNET_OPTION_RESET_URLCACHE_SESSION: STUB
fixme:shell:DllCanUnloadNow stub

It seems the more I do, the worse it gets :(

I'm not using Fairbot, but does the howto in the link above still work? Also Fairbot probably should get an AppDB entry, afaict there's none yet.
