Hi, I am attempting to install wine 20030408 on a fresh install of RedHat 9. All goes well until the step where the default registry entries are meant to be installed. At this point I get the following error message: wine: chdir to /tmp/.wine-darrenh/server-302-69ba2: no such file or directory Registry install failed I am installing using the wineinstall utility in the tools directory and this is a wine-only installation. The directory in question definitely does not exist. The wine check utility also gives the install a clean bill of health (except for the registry of course). I am new to wine, am I missing something obvious here? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Advitech Pty Limited 1 Elizabeth Street, Tighes Hill NSW, Newcastle, Australia PO Box 207, Mayfield 2304 NSW, Australia Phone +61 2 49616544 Fax +61 2 49693530 http://www.advitech.com.au ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ NOTICE - This message contains information intended only for the use of the addressee named above.

It looks as if you have no /tmp directory, or else permissions are wrong for it. maybe you skipped installing the filesystem- rpm? have root try umask 0 && mkdir /tmp chmod o+t /tmp and try regedit winedefault.reg again. Note regedit will only work with a winedefault.reg that is accessible by a configured wine drive, so you may have to copy it from the wine source to some other place where regedit can get at it.

Wouldnt that be a NPTL issue instead ?

In fact the /tmp directory is as I believe it should be: world-writable + sticky thanks anyhow.

Jackpot! That seems to have been the problem. The wineinstall script does not specify this configure flag by default. I don't know why my installtion would require it and others not. May be worth some further investigation. thanks, Darren Sylvain Petreolle <spetreolle@yahoo.fr> 11/04/2003 01:45 PM To: darren.hennessy@advitech.com.au, wine-users@winehq.org cc: whitnl73@juno.com Subject: Re: Registry problems with RedHat 9 Wouldnt that be a NPTL issue instead ?
