The Master Genealogist 7.01.000 on Wine 0.960

Can someone please help interpret.

This is my attempt to install The Master Genealogist 7.01.000 on Wine 0.960 without using winetricks to install dcom98.

The wine AppDB entry is here:
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... &iId=10500

On a plain
Running the installer tmg7setup.exe with wincfg set to win98
give the following information in the terminal:

Code: Select all

me@me-desktop:~$ wine "C:\tmg7setup.exe"
fixme:shell:IShellLinkA_fnGetPath (0x148948): WIN32_FIND_DATA is not yet filled.

me@me-desktop:~$

Running TMG7 for the first time gives the following information

Code: Select all

me@me-desktop:~$ wine "C:\Program Files\The Master Genealogist v7\tmg7.exe"
fixme:font:get_nearest_charset returning DEFAULT_CHARSET face->fs.fsCsb[0] = 00000000 file = /home/me/.wine/dosdevices/c:/windows/Fonts/Foxfont.fon
fixme:system:SystemParametersInfoW Unimplemented action: 4132 (SPI_GETDROPSHADOW)
err:ole:TLB_ReadTypeLib Loading of typelib L"oleacc.dll" failed with error 2
me@me-desktop:~$

This is as far as TMG7 goes without following the how to in the wine appdb.

Can anyone point me in the write direction and interpret the above info, please.

Thanks

That is not correct. You need to "cd" into that directory first.

Wow, what an extensive howto!

I just tried doing a plain vanilla install with no settings, and got a
wineserver
assertion failure on exit! Filed http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12866

When I get a chance, I was going to but got distracted by the
wineserver assertion
failur.

The Howto is based on Ian's trials. I have just expanded on TMG7.
I look forward to when TMG7 can run on wine with no special settings or work arounds.
