Error installin Mono (Timezone related)

Post by renatov »

Hey guys, I'm running Wine 1.7.17 on OpenSUSE 13.1 and I'm having a hard time trying to install Mono. When I first opened Wine, it said it was installing Mono, but I think it failed because when I try to uninstall mono with winetricks, it says Mono isn't installed. So I'm followin this guide. I download wine-mono-4.5.2.msi but it's giving an error message about my timezone I guess:

Code: Select all

$ msiexec /i wine-mono-4.5.2.msi 
fixme:storage:create_storagefile Storage share mode not implemented.
fixme:ntdll:find_reg_tz_info Can't find matching timezone information in the registry for bias 180, std (d/m/y): 16/02/2014, dlt (d/m/y): 19/10/2014
What should I do?

Sounds like you didn't install the openSUSE wine-mono package, which is the easiest way to install wine-mono, though it does suffer from bug 35413.

To do it manually, just put wine-mono-4.5.2.msi in /usr/share/wine/mono and Wine will find and install it when it creates a new wineprefix. It won't do that for existing wineprefixes, so unless you have something installed that you can't reinstall, delete the wineprefix you have and recreate it after installing wine-mono.

There is no wine-mono package on my OpenSUSE repositories, but I have the package mono-complete installed, which is a metapackage for a lot of other packages related to mono. I'll put the msi file in the directory you suggested.

I'm on openSUSE. There definitely is a wine-mono package in the Wine repository. http://download.opensuse.org/repositori ... .1/noarch/

Wine-mono is not native Mono, it is Windows Mono modified for Wine. The "mono-complete" package does not include it.
