Hello folks,

the attached backtrace says different:

--- snip ---
System information:
    Wine build: wine-1.6.2
    Platform: i386
    Host system: Darwin
    Host version: 13.0.0
--- snip ---

The old JRE5 updater app works fine here in clean WINEPREFIX.
It detects an outdated JRE version and suggests upgrade/download which of
course doesn't work because Sun's servers don't exist anymore.

Upgrading WINEPREFIXes created by very old Wine versions _might_ work, but in
various cases a reinstall of the app into fresh WINEPREFIX, created by the new
Wine version is needed.

Just to be clear: Wine upgrade (the Wine installation itself) is not the same
thing as upgrading WINEPREFIXes (where your Windows apps are installed to).
Both go along: a Wine upgrade will also force update of all prefixes when you
try to start the apps.

Again: install your app in fresh WINEPREFIX created by recent Wine version.

Regards
