Hi, how can i run a app using wine from commandline ?im using ubuntu. i have tryed just typing appname.exe in shell but gett error Code: Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded. Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly. Thanks[/code]
Is your application was installed in Wine? Or you just launching it from different media/folder? If it's installed in Wine, then go in shell in that directory: Code: cd / cd home/username/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/AppFolderName then type Code: wine appname.exe
Thanks Alex. that .exe does not require installation its just an executable that runs on systray.. can you please guide me thanks
So, run it just from the folder containing this file. Do you now how to browse your folders from the terminal/console? What guidance or help do you need exactly? :)
LOL, yes i do know that.. the .exe is siting in the ubuntu desktop i have just tryed to cd to desktop and run "wine asd.exe" and it just gave me this.. Code: Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded. Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly. err:systray:initialize_systray Could not create tray window Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded. Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly.
BTW, if i run it by double clicking the exe, it works fine.. its just that i cannot run it from shell (making script to launch it). sorry for the double post as no edit option.
See the reply. I can see GUI, but fonts are absent, only "?" - symbols everywhere. )
