Solaris 11 open exe file by wine

[tsuisou]

I have a question about how can I open some exe file in Solaris OS? I have tried to install wine from this blog, but I found only old wine version to solaris 5.11. I think the file is too old. I use Solaris 11.

I used that commands

Code: Select all

# bunzip2 Wine-1.1.2-solaris-5.11-i86pc.pkg.bz2
# pkgadd -d ./Wine-1.1.2-solaris-5.11-i86pc.pkg

Everything run
After

Code: Select all

/usr/local/wine/bin/wine --version
wine-1.1.2

next

Code: Select all

/usr/local/wine/bin/wine PathToSomeFile.exe 
err:process:start-wineboot failed to start wineboot, err 1359

and the system is restarted

It seems wineboot does not work properly. Either package you have installed is broken or it is incompatible with your version of OS. Not sure why your system restarts, wineboot does not restart whole OS, it just simulates Windows reboot within single Wine prefix. Anyway, Wine 1.1.2 is about 7 years old, it is ancient. It's better to run recent Wine version unless you have very good reason to use older version. However, for unusual OS, you probably have to compile Wine yourself (you may encounter some challenges though).
