Summary: Metatrader installation Product: Wine Version: 1.1.21 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dyvazar@numericable.fr
hi,
i'm a user of Metatrader (MT4) on Linux (ubuntu intrepid & jaunty 32) with last wine 1.1.21.
Even using Winedoors to install Metatrader, there is a lot of non conventional errors: - first, before installing this program, wine folders have to be filled with windows fonts and 2 special dll: MFC42.DLL (like that, all in capital and with a lenght of 995383 bytes) & mfc40.dll - winetricks have to be used too
I send you this url: http://articles.mql4.com/416
where you can follow the rules to install Metatrader on Linux.
Wish this help you (and users indeed)
ps: doing all this do not resolve yet the icons fonts (stay grey but work)

my surprise: you are fast to close this problem. I know that winedoors is not wine and their server is down at time. But it helps on installing this app (metatrader). So, does i must understand that wine is designed to support only games and common apps ?
I do wish not !!!
So, please, lots of users like me are waiting for better support for Metatrader (look at tha apps base).

Install it with Wine, try at least. Than file reports. You could use winetricks to install mfc4 modules.

--- Comment #6 from Jeff Zaroyko jeffz@jeffz.name 2009-05-10 02:57:01 --- Marking invalid since lack of mfc is not a bug. If you want "support" or help please use the forum http://forum.winehq.org. In future please keep one problem per bug report.

No, Wine supports many applications. But we can't support wine doors, and many of your 'bugs' aren't really bugs (the same thing can happen on windows).
If you have actual bugs, please file them.
