Riverbed Modeler (formerly OPNET)

Post by PolarOrbit »

I have used OPNET IT Guru Academic Edition on Ubuntu virtual machines using Wine for years in a class I teach. Recently Riverbed bought OPNET and released a new version called Riverbed Modeler. This new version runs under Wine but suffers from a couple quirks. First, when using File | Open, the Open dialog box appears but the spinning wheel busy icon runs continuously so you can't use the mouse to select a file or click a button. However, you can tab to items and click enter to execute so the dialog box is working but the mouse pointer is not. Second, when you generate a plot none of the numbers show up (either on the axis or in the pop up box when hovering over the plot line).

I would appreciate it greatly if anyone has some suggestions for resolving these issues. The file open problem is a nuisance but the lack of numbers on plots makes the application mostly unusable.

Wine version? If it's not the latest development release, upgrade. If the menu problem persists, post terminal output. http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log

For the font issue, if you don't have the MS corefonts and Tahoma installed, try installing them.

I'm using Wine version 1.7.28 and MS core fonts and Tahoma are already installed. I can't attach terminal output from my current location but I see some suspicious lines such as:

fixme:msvcrt:MSVCRT__wsopen_s : pmode 0x01b6 ignored
fixme:msvcrt:__clean_type_info_names_internal (0xc153044) stub
fixme:msvcrt:MSVCRT__wsopen_s : pmode 0x01b6 ignored
fixme:ole:RemUnknown_QueryInterface No interface for iid {00000019-0000-0000-c000-000000000046}

I'll see about attaching the actual output file as soon as I can.

Thanks
