wine users - Jun 2008 - .msi problem

I'm trying to install an .msi
http://pokebeach.com/content/redshark/Redshark-2.15.msi That's a Pokemon TCG
simulator.

When I try to install it, it says I need Windows Scripting Host and cancels the
installation process. I looked at the FAQ and used msiexec and I also just ran
it normally by associating .msi to WINE.

I'm using Ubuntu Linux 8.04 if you're curious about my OS.

Am I missing something or is this just an incompatibility?

Try using winetricks to install Windows Scripting Host:

Code:
wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
sh winetricks wsh56


Then try installing your .msi.

The installation was a success, however the program will not run! It shows me a
splash screen and then it terminates. Is there anything further I should do?

Open a terminal, cd to the directory where the executable is located, and try
running with the command

Code:
wine program.exe


substituting the actual name of the file for "program.exe." Post
whatever messages appear in the terminal.
