Your Wine version is old; upgrade to the latest development release. If the problem persists, post terminal output. http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log

http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#run_from_terminal

Clicking the link "How should I start Windows programs from the command line?" in the section of the FAQ that I already linked you to would also have taken you directly to the same information.
