 Posted: Wed Dec 12, 2007 2:42 pm Post subject: wine cannot install .NET 1.1 [SOLVED] |
 |
|
I'm trying to install Cram Master 7.7 to prepare for the LPI exams.
The cram installer complains about not having dotnet 1.1 and fails.
Then the dotnet installer complains of not having ie5 and fails. 
I have installed ie5 and ie6 using ies4linux.
I tried recursively symlink-ing and then even hard copying the IE files from ~/.ies4linux/drive_c/* to ~/.wine/drive_c
But neither approach works
Does anyone know how to make wine "see" ie5?

So I found this post on our forum and got it working.
Basically, copy the bash script winetricks into your home directory.
Then the script downloads and install mono12 for wine, which takes care of .NET:
| Code: | | sh ~/winetricks mono12 |
Now I just have to find a way to add in MDAC (Microsoft Data Access Component) which the installer is also complaining about.

Ok this solves the problem of the OP:
| Code: | | sh ~/winetricks fakeie6 |
The registry is edited into thinking IE is installed and forever holds it's peace.
...and then
| Code: | | sh ~/winetricks sh ~/winetricks mdac28 |
takes care of MDAC
