where do I find the machine.cong file for .NET 2.0?

Post by mgh »

Am trying to install Office 2010 using guide in

AppDB.http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... ngId=70071

The instructions say

"Note­: If installing Office Professional Plus, copy a machine.config file from either a .NET 2.0 or Mono install to the wineprefix's drive_c/windows/Microsoft.NET/Framework/v2.0.50727/CONFIG directory. Without it, the installer will fail about 2/3 of the way through and roll back the install.­ ­ (Bug 28486) This workaround is not needed for other editions.

I have done some google searches, but am still confused as to how/where I get this .NET config file. Do I install this program called Mono? This will create a .NET config file somewhere?

Thanks for any help.

OK. Copied .NET config file from Mono, and entire office 2010 pro suite installed with no problems.

So far, only Excel, Access and Word work. What I really want is OneNote. I will look around AppDB for more help on OneNote.
