Attempting and failing to wine an exe

Post by kkoch »

Hello,

I'm trying to run an .exe installer using wine on my Mac. I have spent hours installing everything required, used cd to navigate to the file, and I just can't seem to figure out why it's still not working.

I type in the command wine (installer name).exe and it sends out the following message:

fixme:exec:SHELL_execute flags ignored: 0x00000100
fixme:exec:SHELL_execute flags ignored: 0x00000100
fixme:exec:SHELL_execute flags ignored: 0x00000100
fixme:exec:SHELL_execute flags ignored: 0x00000100
fixme:exec:SHELL_execute flags ignored: 0x00000100

I have no idea what this means. I've seen that others get this message when something has gone wrong, but this is all I get. I don't get any actual error message -- well, I'm guessing this means something is not working, but it never explicitly states that it's done working by opening a new command line or anything.

Any help or guidance would be much appreciated. It's frustrating that I've spent so long trying to get a simple installer to do what it's supposed to do. I haven't seen an error message quite like mine on other posts.
