Summary: wine config [wine] "Path" not working ? Product: Wine Version: 20040716 Platform: Other OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: blocker Priority: P2 Component: wine-binary AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: mike_parlett@btopenworld.com
MY WORLD------>
System Linux Redhat 9 ( fully up to date kernel gcc/libs etc ) wine from CVS version -- Wine 20040716 New config file from distribution No old software lurking this is a new clean Linux instalation Wine installed with no Windows partition ie stand alone ------------
THE PROBLEM ---->
I have used older versions of wine for some time with few problems. I am now trying to use the latest from CVS ( aug 2004 ). It compiles and installs. Indeed notepad etc run no problem. I used wineinstall as a normal user and su'd for the installation. I have confirmed that wine is using my ~/.wine/config file by corrupting it and seeing errors ( as expected ). The problem starts when I try to add Path's to the "Path" entry in Section [wine]. Here is a snip from the file --->
[wine] "Windows" = "c:\windows" "System" = "c:\windows\system" "Temp" = "e:\" "Path"="c:\windows;c:\windows\system;c:\lotus\organize;e:\;e:\test;f:\" "Profile" = "c:\windows\Profiles\Administrator" "GraphicsDriver" = "x11drv" "ShowDirSymlinks" = "1" ;"ShowDotFiles" = "1"
<---------------
All directories are define in dosdevices with soft links as recomended and all are accessable.
I am attempting to Lotus organizer the command line is
$ wine org5.exe The result is wine: cannot find 'org5.exe'
If i use the full path list ie:
wine c:\lotus\organize\org5.exe
Then it starts... however I need to add some other Paths for the program to work. If I add them to the config file they are ignored.
This is not peculiar to organizer any program on its own path will fail.
I have tried exporting WINEPATH no help Of course I have left the linux enviroment Path alone
I have googled, searched wine HQ read all the README I can find including the sgml stuff and find no real refferance to this. So either its a new bug or I am thick. I dont mind being called thick etc if someone knows the answer
Thanks in Advance
