similar to: write file permission errors

hello all, I have been trying to run MS Windows and Excel under wine. They are about the only two remaining dependent Windoz apps The error they produce relates to write permissions. However that does not seem to be the root issue. Other apps, such as Notepad, seem to be able to write without issue. What is currently required in way of wine config to satisfy Word and Excel? Thanks in

Wine .12 on fc5 does not build well. .configure shows several dependancies missing. Can anyone identify the packages that sypply the following: xorg-x11-devel _popen, _pclose, lwp_create mingw32-dlltool Thanks, Dan

All, excel.exe is still broken on the latest wine 2.11 with the mscreate.dir error on excel start up. the system is win98 so dcom98.exe is loaded. Is there a work around. If so where is it documented? I have tried to install the dcom95 version but that errors. Thanks, Dan

The system is FC4 and the wine version is 0.9.5. The condition is wine produces a rapid string of errors when attempting to open an application. The original error is lost. I have tried redirecting by changing the redirecting '>' with both '1>' and '2>'. In any event the original error is lost out of the buffer and redirection does not work. How can the full

The system is FC5 and wine is the latest .17. There are two users configured on the system, A and B. They are configured to be as alike as possible. Diff of set output shows only the expected differences. Wine is built from CVS. winecfg is configured to the same profile with only the appropriate user path names changed. The problem is wine works well for one of the users and not well at all

Hi, I am trying to eliminate all remnants of Windows 98 on my system, but for my job I need to be able to run Reachout 8.42 Enterprise (from the now defunct Stac). Has anyone tried to run this from Linux with wine? Or are there any fake RO clients for Linux? Once I get over this hurdle, I can free up the space on my Win98 partition finally! Thanks, Philip

Hello, Has anyone succeed to install Internet Explorer with wine-20041019 ? For what I have seen from winehq it should be possible but I have not succeeded. Which dlls and which config must I have ? I have tried with ie5 and ie6. I suspect I must have some native dlls but I do not know which and which config must I have. Olive

Office Depot ran a deal with a Cruzer Micro 512MB (actually, around 488MiB) for about $20 after a rebate I may not see for months. I saw the ad yesterday and stopped by pretty well first thing this afternoon to snatch one up while they were still there since I've been having to make do with two 256MB drives to hold all the data I neded since one drive couldn't hold enough (though I must

Good day! I am GUI-challenged, and proud of it, but I would like a bit of help. When I start netscape (picked from an Earthlink CD) it raises a message box that says (this is picked from --debugmsg +text and folded for mailing convenience): trace:text:DrawTextExW L"Error: temporary directory E: does not exist. Please enter a new directory in the preferences box.", 99 , [(0,0),(264,0)]

I believe I have followed Gour''s instructions to the letter for compiling wxwindows, ruby and wxruby. Indeed all of the compilation stages have worked flawlessly, however when I try to ruby any of the samples I get an error dialog "This application has failed to start because wxmsw241d.dll was not found ...."

There are a lot of apps without maintainers, and there might be users of those apps who would be willing take a few minutes to post bits of useful information in a wiki, but don't want the responsibility of being a maintainer. Sure, they could just post info in a comment, but user comments are

All, Excel 2000 does not run under wine. The error has been consistent for 10 wine releases or more. The system is FC7 with all the upgrades installed. The error is consistent with both locally built wine and with package rpm versions. The other parts of office, word, etc run successfully. This is a fresh install of excel.

Hi all, I want to use MS Office apps under Linux (RH 7.0) without always rebooting my system to Windows so I just installed Wine. Installation gave no troubles. MS Word, Excel, Ppt all start but after a few seconds, they hang. Ie. MS Word starts, the cursor blinks three times in a new document and then nothing. The Office programs are installed on the Win98 partition. Anyone knows what I might

All, I am testing with the wine 2005 release. The release notes state config file control has been moved to the registry and that winecfg is active. winecfg does not seem to recognize dll overrides. Has anyone else seen this? If so were you able to work around it? Thanks, Dan

I seem to be running into a problem where I am trying to rsync from a source directory that lacks write permissions (i.e. r-xr-xr-x). Presumably this is because rsync creates the directory on the destination, then sets the permissions to match the source and then tries to sync the contents of the directory, which it cannot of course lacking write permission in the directory. Is there a way to

Hi, I'm currently writing my fourth book about Linux, for the french editor Eyrolles. The book will cover Linux server basics for pros, and it will be based on CentOS 7. I have a quick question to those of you who use either Windows 10 or Mac OS X as their everyday desktop system. How do you write a bootable CentOS USB disk using either Windows 10 or Mac OS X ? I've googled this, of

Using WINE 20010323 under a stock Mandrake 7.2 system. Word 2000 seems to work but won't save files. If the file exists, it just says, ``file exists'' [OK]. If you save anywhere fancy like ``My Documents'' it says this is not a real filesystem location [OK]. If you specify a drive and path (h:\filename.doc) it tells you that this is an invalid filename, please check it [OK].
