Help with errors running Mabi on Wine please!

Post by colorfulmints »

Every time I try to put the .exe installer file into the terminal, it gives me this error:

Dynamic session lookup supported but failed: launchd did not provide a socket path, verify that org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist is loaded!
Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded.
Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly.
err:systray:initialize_systray Could not create tray window

I have absolutely no idea what that means, and I've searched the internet for fixes, most of which didn't work and others I just couldn't understand because I'm not at all familiar with how to work macs or the terminal or wine. Is there anyone here who could explain how to fix this in simple terms, please?

do you have X11 installed...?

Get the latest XQuartz version installed...
http://xquartz.macosforge.org/
see if that fixes anything.

Yes, I do! My mac has always had X11, and I installed the XQuartz a couple hours ago, too, to see if that'd help anything, but it hasn't changed a thing. :(

have your rebooted since installing XQuartz?

Did you check Console.app (in Applications/Utilities) under All Messages to see if any errors come up related to XQuartz starting?

Can you start up XQuartz manually first before Wine? (maybe just its auto launch is messed up)

Have you tried running Wine directly from a XQuartz xTerm?

Yes, I've rebooted a few times since installing XQuartz.

And I checked the Console.app and there's a lot of stuff in it that I don't understand, but I found a few things talking about the display when i searched X11 and XQuartz. It mentions DISPLAY not being set and some other things about X or something. I can't understand this stuff very well at all, though.

And yes I've tried starting up both X11 and XQuartz before trying wine and neither of those worked, and I've tried using wine straight from the XQuartz xterm and that didn't work either. I still get the same display error.
