Issue with installer of an app !

Post by vincen »

Hi,

I try to install in Wine 1.6 NetLinx Studio application from AMX. During install it tries to install also vcredist_x86.exe included in installer but it fails as it looks for it in a temp directory that doesn't exist ! I installed separately these runtime by downloading them from Microsoft website but installer still wants to install it. How to avoid this issue ?

Thanks

You could try creating that directory and putting vcredist_x86.exe in it before running the installer.

Sorry forgot to mention it but I tried that without success :( tried both directory with complete name and the short 8 characters version but no luck :(

Try installing it with winetricks before installing your app.

Upgrade Wine to 1.7.12, and if the problem persists, post terminal output.

Hi,

I'm having the same issue, wine version 1.7.27

The installer fails during the installation of vcrun2010 with this error msg :
Cannot execute the external program C:\users\pstp~LGU\Temp\VSTU~AVN\vcredist_x86.exe
The terminal outputs a single line :
fixme:shell:SHChangeNotify ignoring unsupported flags: 2001
Thanks!

You must be using an old version of winetricks. Upgrade.

It's not listed under applications; it's listed under dlls.

Winetricks' GUI menu is worse than useless. It's easier to use the command line.

Code: Select all

sh winetricks vcrun2010
