winecfg crashes after fresh install

[Pauly1]

On Yosemite 10.10.2, mid-2010 iMac
Fresh install of Homebrew, Wine, wget, zenity & Winetricks.
ran winecfg and got the following:

bash-3.2$ winecfg
err:process:__wine_kernel_init boot event wait timed out
err:module:import_dll Library ole32.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\windows\\system32\\winecfg.exe") not found
err:module:import_dll Library ole32.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\windows\\system32\\winmm.dll") not found
err:module:import_dll Library winmm.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\windows\\system32\\winecfg.exe") not found
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"C:\\windows\\system32\\winecfg.exe" failed, status c0000135
bash-3.2$

I checked and the two dll's are in ".wine/drive_c/windows/system32"

Perhaps relevant, perhaps not, when I first did a clean install of Yosemite, I installed Homebrew, Wine, wget, zenity & Winetricks and things were working until I installed Python 3. Python 3 broke Wine, I don't know why but it did. I removed Python 3, cleaned everything from the cellar (uninstall_homebrew.sh) and cleaned out any PATH references to Wine or Python. My current .bash_profile is limited to (export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin). I waited for a couple of SPs, and am now trying again.

I have no idea what to try at this point.
Any suggestions would be welcome.

Thanks.

Try this:

Code: Select all

$ wineboot -s -f
$ wineboot -i

And if it does not work, try this:

Code: Select all

$ wineboot --update

Be sure that no wine process is loaded before running those commands.

err:process:__wine_kernel_init boot event wait timed out

This is the query I made on google.

Thank you for the suggestions.
I tried them all and all that terminal would tell me was "command not found". I figured that something was deeply wrong with the wine install, removed everything wine related and started over. Now at least winecfg works but installing zenity is turning out to be a monster. "brew zenity" doesn't seem to work with the 29-11 wine release on Yosemite and I'm having to download and ./config - make - make install a lot of individual pieces. I've gotten msgs about missing gnome-doc-utils, intltool, libglade and others. All this for a winetricks gui. It's very frustrating. Please tell me there's an easier way.

Use the command line for winetricks. Its GUI is terrible anyway.

FYI, winetricks is a separate project; the place to report problems with it is http://winetricks.org.
