Run time error '5'

MarcoV · Post by **MarcoV** » Tue Jun 02, 2009 3:47 am

Hi all,
I need to run a scuba decompression software on Linux(Ubuntu). I downloaded the software free trial version from
http://www.andihq.com/pages/mainpagev3.html
and tried to run it with Wine. All seem to work fine (autosetting, etc like in windows) but when the software should start to work the software window disappears and appears a window error saying

Run time error '5'
Invalid procedure call or argument

Could anyone suggest/give me an help please?
I'm only a 'user' not an expert so if someone could help me keep it more simple possible, please

What version of Wine? If it's not the latest (1.1.22), upgrade and see if that fixes it. If the problem persists with the newest version, run the app from a terminal and post whatever messages appear (if long, use pastebin).

Thank you. It's not the latest version of wine, it's 1.0.1. I've to ask to a friend how proceed to update it, using my Ubuntu distro.

Try 'winetricks dcom98'. Only make sure you install this program and use winetricks on a separate WINEPREFIX!

dcom98 is less and less compatible with Wine and will most likely break anything else you have installed under Wine.

I have installed dcom98 with winetricks in WINEPREFIX=~/.winetest , but when i try to install GAPsetup.exe it fails:

File bug in Wine bugzille, of course that does not guarantee it will be fixed anytime soon.

Of course one thing you could try is installing it on Windows then copy all files, and possibly all registry keys it added over to Wine. Keep in mind this tends not to work for apps that deposit files and registry entries all over the place.
