That message isn't the root of your problem, I bet.

http://www.winehq.com/site/documentation has info that might help you.

The most common way to proceed is to figure out where the crash
by turning on more verbose logging with --debugmsg options; see
http://www.winehq.com/site/docs/wine-user/command-line-options#CONFIG-PARAME...

Also, there's a way to use Visual Studio's debugger with Wine remotely,
but I can't see where that's documented.  (Hey, can anyone who knows
how to do this point us to the doc?)

Also use winedbg

- Make sure you have MyApp.pdb next to the MyApp.exe that you are 
running under wine.
- start winedbg # winedbg MyApp.pdb
- When the app crashes and you are at the debugger prompt. do a "bt" for 
back-trace. it will show you where your at.
- Inspect source code to figure what is wrong.
- I bet it is something with DLLs / OCX's missing. Also try to replace 
builtin DLLs with native ones. Specially OLE stuff.

- I wish there was A DLLs list that would say. What dlls must run 
builtin what are 1/2-1/2 and what are better native.
It is trail and error for now.
