--- Comment #3 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net 2010-08-21 12:51:08 --- Hello Sonja,
the console output:
--- snip --- wine: Install the Windows version of Mono to run .NET executables --- snip ---
basically tells the application requires an installed .NET Framework (version 2.0 to be specific). This can be done using 'winetricks' script which automatically works around some problems and installs the required prerequisites.
Make sure you don't install any other software in your WINEPREFIX (http://wiki.jswindle.com/index.php/WINEPREFIX). Many problems arise when people install multiple apps and games into same WINEPREFIX resulting in breakage (components might interfere with each other badly).
To install .NET 2.0 using 'winetricks' (http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks): Get the script:
--- snip --- $ wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks --- snip ---
Install the .NET Framework:
--- snip --- $ sh winetricks dotnet20 --- snip ---
I downloaded a demo version "basic edition" from here: http://www.homeschooltracker.com/download_basic.aspx and tested a bit.
If your app complains about "missing database components" on startup you need additional 'winetricks' steps to install required Microsoft database components:
--- snip --- $ sh winetricks mdac28 jet40 --- snip ---
After that steps the app started and seemed to work flawlessly at first glance...
Regards
