MetaTrader

What works

Metatrader 5 32bit (build 1525 27. Jan 2017)

The following is working:

- Installation

- startup

- strategie-tester

- metaeditor

I have not seen any bugs yet

Clean wine installation with clean "$HOME/.wine32"-prefix was used.

In order to get the latest wine 2.0 (staging) binary for LINUX MINT (Ubuntu) I had to add the winehq repository:

udo dpkg --add-architecture i386

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wine/wine-builds

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-staging

(for more details: https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu  )

Only gecko and mono were automatically installed at first winecfg start.

Nothing else needs to be installed.

In order to get the 32-bit Metatrader 5 installed on a 64-bit Linux/wine system do the following:

1. create new 32-bit only wine-prefix:

WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine32" WINEARCH=win32 wine wineboot

2. execute mt5setup.exe-installer:

WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 wine mt5setup.exe

3. run the termin.exe programm:

WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 wine terminal.exe

What does not

The 64bit-Version seems not to work yet or needs some special settings/DLL-overrides.

Installation is successful (mt5setup.exe is always 32bit) but when you try to start your terminal64.exe executeable you get a popup error with the following message:

"A debugger has been found running in your system.

Please, unload it from memory and restart your program."

Has anyone an idea how to solve this issue?
