Installing K-Pacs under WINE

[martijnbangor]

Hi,

I would like to install K-Pacs (www.k-pacs.net) under WINE. If I open the K-pacs installer ("Installer V1.6.0 English.exe"), I receive the following error:
wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\Installer.exe"

I am using the latest version of Ubuntu & Wine. Any idea what the problem might be?
I'm new to Ubuntu & have not used WINE before (so there is a big chance of me making a stupid mistake)

Thanks,

Martijn

Exactly what version of Wine? The one that ships with your distro is not necessarily the latest. If it's older than 1.1.44, upgrade.

How exactly are you trying to run the installer? Follow the directions here: http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#run_from_terminal

Hi Dimesio,

Thank you for your help!

I tried everything you suggested, but it still didn't work. However, I changed the name of the installer from "Installer V1.6.0 English.exe" into "test.exe". This solved the problem.

I can now start K-Pacs. However, it immediately stop since I receive the error:
"An error occured during program initialization. Please check, if your system complies with the system requirement (see readme.txt)"

Any ideas/ suggestions?

Thanks,

Martijn

The following information is from the K-Pacs readme.txt

"Minimum requirements:



· Intel Pentium III 800-MHz processor

· Windows 2000/XP/NT 4 or later

· 256MB of available RAM

· 50 MB of available disk space

· Monitor Resolution 1024x768 pixel

· Mouse"

I do have much more RAM (6 GB), much more HDD space, etc. Do I need to set this anywhere in WINE?

Thanks,

Martijn

Here's a tip you might not know: type in the first few characters of a file in the terminal, then press tab to properly autocomplete your line. It never fails.

Hi DaVince,

That is very helpful! I installed K-Pacs with that comment. However, I do get exactly the same error message when starting K-Pacs.

However, since I run the installation from the terminal; I noticed the following error:


C:\users\martijn\Temp>rmdir "H:\Downloads\"
Directory is not empty

C:\users\martijn\Temp>del C:\users\martijn\Temp\uis6318.bat
Sharing violation

Any suggestions? Or has this nothing to do with the error message when I start K-PACS from WINE:
"An error occured during program initialization. Please check, if your system complies with the system requirements"

Thanks,

Martijn

Does anyone else have a brilliant idea?

"winetricks jet40" might be a more comfortable way to install the missing libraries.
