how to install freephoneline.exe from CLI

Thufir · Post by **Thufir** » Thu Jul 01, 2010 2:43 pm

Looking at:

http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... &iId=10591

What are the steps to install this application? Yes, it's a garbage
application, but I'd like to at least give it a go. Looks like msiexec
apparently isn't the right approach. Should that be through wcmd instead?

thufir@ARRAKIS:~/.wine/drive_c$
thufir@ARRAKIS:~/.wine/drive_c$ msiexec /a freephoneline.exe
fixme:msi:MSI_OpenDatabaseW open failed r = 80030050 for L"C:\\windows\

I would suggest you upgrade wine. Also did you ever try to run wine as
root, or with su, or sudo? If so you probably need to delete your wine
prefix. See the FAQ for how to do that. Note that reinstalling wine
will not fix a bad prefix.

Why are you trying to run an exe with msiexec? Run it normally, with wine.
http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#head-f351523 ... 8da63be66f

And as John said, upgrade. 1.0.1 is very old. The installer works fine in 1.2-rc5.

Ah, I tried that first, but thought maybe I had the wrong approach or
syntax. If it works for you, then I need to upgrade

I do not know. The app db said it did not work at 1.1.32 but that is
an old version. Not as ancient as 1.0.1 but still old at that. If I
was at home I would try that but I am at work now.

Have you upgraded wine from your ancient version to the Wine 1.2-rc6
or Wine 1.2-rc5?

It installed without any issue at all on Wine 1.2-rc5. However since I
do not have an account with this service I was unable to test the
application. Running the application I was first prompted with my
account settings.

Oh, I thought it had installed on a newer wine. I'm upgrading my OS
first (takes a long time) then will update wine.

After you do that run wine --version to verify your installed version.
1.0.1 is not good.

Here is what I have
john@jmd0 ~ $ wine --version
wine-1.2-rc5

It installed, at least. I dunno about whether it will work, there's a
dubious message on the wine website about the sound, so I may install
windows2k dual boot (a big hassle, though).

I downloaded the JRE from java.com for windows and ran wine against it.
However, I'm getting a runtime error from the JRE:

I downloaded the JRE from java.com for windows and ran wine against it.
However, I'm getting a runtime error from the JRE:

For me the installer automatically downloaded and installed JRE. The
application was fully installed and it did run to the point that it
was asking for a password. I don't have an account so I was not able
to test.

BTW, I did start with a clean prefix.

It did the same for me, but both of us used 1.2-rc5.

Why are you using 1.1.42? It's not as old as the version you started with, but it's still outdated. Upgrade to 1.2-rc5 or 1.2-rc6.

Use the following procedure to get the latest wine (yes get the beta):

Isn't the latest version a release candidate, not a beta?

I am not sure what ubuntu calls it.

Every release except the final releases is technically a beta. Actually
the development releases are alpha code (they can and may 'blow up'
although everything is done to avoid this.)

Also, much regression testing and work really needs to be done to move
Wine forward.

At the present point, there are over 300 outstanding regression issues
outstanding.

John:

Ubuntu is still calling it a beta under the Wine 1.2 ppa.

The real problem is when a problem happens and a regression test is
called for.
