This was visited in the archives about 3 years ago with subscribers saying that it works, but I don't believe them. I can't even get it to install.
When I run wine d:\setup to run the Installshield from the CD, it starts up OK but very early on in the piece it takes a dive with: The setup program could not retrieve the volume information for drive (C:\windows\temp\IXP000.TMP\). System message: Access denied . This message is then followed by 3 more messages, the only difference being (C:\), (C:\) and (C:\windows) in turn. I don't believe the last line as I have everything in my wine filesystem set as a+w,a+r and owned by myself After these error messages I get: -2147024891: Internal error in Windows Installer and then: 1607: Unable to install Installshield Scripting Runtime OK, so perhaps I should be trying to use an installed system, but how do I know what files I need in my various parts of the wine filesystem? I really need to get this one going as it is the last link in getting a client totally off M$ and onto Linux 100%. Everything else is doable with OS apps except for MYOB (I know about SQL-Ledger, I use it myself, but I am trying to make the change appear as minimal to the client as possible).
