Nook For PC Connection Error

[ray2047]

Just installed Nook for PC 2.5.5.9347. I am using Wine 1.62. OS is PCLinuxOS.

The program runs but when I try to log in I get connection error 1017. A common error it seems from a search even for Windows users but no solutions in what I read. Checking with a search here it seems it should be working but it isn't. Does it work for any one else?

Thanks in advance for any help

If you are using a 64bit linux, you could try to install 32bit openssl lib, see http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... &iId=20818 . If it still wouldn't work, file a bug.

Thank you. Yes it is 64 bit Linux but my repo installs both 32bit and 64 bit Wine however I see only 64 bit openssl lib. I have a 32 bit version of PCLOS in Virtual Box. I'll check if it works in that.

I did get it to work in the 32 bit version of my OS but not without one more problem. Running in 32 bit solved the communication error bur resulted in a 1025 error code. Online answers mostly blamed that code on cookie settings in IE. No no one explained (or even asked) how an IE setting could affect a program not running in IE. Finally found the solution in a, old post on a forum that advised to create a new account from my Nook For PC app instead of using my account created on line.

Hope this helps someone.
