Adobe Premium CS6

[yuvi]

Has anyone ever tried installing it?

I managed to install Photoshop CS6 and it runs very decently (besides not being able to access installed fonts it's pretty much flawless).

The reason I succeeded is that Photoshop is very popular so a lot of people tried to install it and eventually, some of them succeeded (there are even guides on installing Photoshop CC!). It's pretty amazing how wine is capable of running such a complex software almost natively.

I am, however, in need of installing Adobe Premiere - the video editing software, which is a lot less popular, so less talk anywhere (I googled and googled... but to no avail ).

Trying to install it (CS6 version) - the installer starts and everything is smooth, but it stops mid-way - not due to any wine error, the installer itself says there was a problem with installation and gives me an error summary - which is just a link to the system requirements. So that's... promising, right? I mean, all I need is to make sure I have all the prerequisits...

But reading that list, I I can't tell exactly what's missing. Can anyone help me with this? I would greatly appreciate i

You didn't mention what architecture your OS is or what Wine version you're using. According to the system requirements, this app is only available in 64 bit, so you will need a 64 bit OS and 64 bit Wine. Your Wine version should also be the latest development release. The app also requires Windows 7 or 8, so set the Windows version to one of those in winecfg.

Most of the rest of what's on that page is about hardware. Only you can tell if your hardware meets the minimum requirements.

Keep in mind that even if you meet the requirements, there's a good chance the app still won't work in Wine. According to the AppDB, older versions of this app worked poorly at best, and most didn't work at all. https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager. ... on&iId=128

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I have a 64 bit system, I am using the latest stable version of wine (not the Dev version, though I might install it par your recommendations), and I did configure wine to a 64 bit Windows 7.

I know what the AppDB says, but as I mentioned - Photoshop CS6 works for me despite what the DB said - so I'm ignoring that for now.

[yuvi]

No wait, 1.7 are the beta version so yeah I'm using those already

[yuvi]

What, nothing? Anyone?

[dimesio]

What more do you expect? I've already told you everything that can be determined from the app's posted system requirements, which is all you've given us.

[yuvi]

I expect some help from people who know more than me. If you can't help me, that's fine too, but I'd like to know that.\

I think the hardware is ok, but the installer isn't satisfied for some reason. I would love some help determining how to continue debugging this and making the software install. I'm not a wine or adobe expert. That's all I know. What else can I give you that will be helpful?

Here's the log file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/gqd9rjvug1ktyn0/log.txt?dl=0
The last lines are:

{88d96a05-f192-11d4-a65f-0040963251e5} is msxml6, so you could try installing that. You need it in 64 bit, so you can't use winetricks. Download it from Microsoft and see if the installer works in Wine.

[yuvi]

I installed it (the 64bit version downloaded from microsoft, the install went well), but still got complains that "class {88d969c0-f192-11d4-a65f-0040963251e5} not registered"

[yuvi]

Wait, no, msxml6 it wasn't installed correctly... I'll look into it

[yuvi]

This is the error I get from trying to install msxml6_x64:

You need to run msiexec with wine64, e.g.

Code: Select all

WINEPREFIX=/path/to/wineprefix wine64 msiexec /i /path/to/msxml6_x64.msi

The installer reports success if you do it that way.

[yuvi]

YES!
Thank you. That's one part out of the way.

I now ran the premiere installer again (this time with wine64), again ending with "installation error" and a link to system requirements. Here's the debug log
I was also told that PDAPP program crashed with a serious error - here are the details

I'll keep digging myself, but I'd love all the help I can get

[dimesio]

The backtrace from the crash indicates this is not a clean wineprefix; it shows you are using native gdiplus, dsound, and msxml3. It also indicates that the crash was in 32 bit code.

Reinstall to a clean wineprefix, and when you run the installer, try using wine64 in the command line as you did with the msxml6 installer.

[yuvi]

new wineprefix installation crashes as well. I tried with POL as well, very messy...

You need to install msxml6.

[yuvi]

I did. I installed msxml3 msxml6 amtlib and Xvid. I'll keep trying different combinations... Maybe I need to skip msxml3...

[yuvi]

The really annoying thing is - when I tried installing it with the system wine, it got to around 91% before it told me there was a problem. And here I am opening a bunch of "clean" prefixes, and I can hardly make it even start the installer at all! (it loads and then says "there was a problem to initialize installer")...

[dimesio]

I did. I installed msxml3 msxml6 amtlib and Xvid. I'll keep trying different combinations... Maybe I need to skip msxml3...

Were all those things the 64 bit versions?

[yuvi]

Yes. msxml3 only has a 32 bit version, but I installed it with wine64 (it also crashes if you try installing it with the normal wine)
