HowTo / Notes

HOWTO

Make sure you operate on a clean WINEPREFIX (~/.wine)!


Prerequisite installation by using 'winetricks' script

Winetricks will take care of all needed installation prerequisites and work around some problems. Follow the instructions in the link to install it.

$ bash winetricks -q dotnet20 dotnet40

To work around some bugs you additionally need:

$ bash winetricks -q corefonts


Winbind component

Winbind component

Make sure you installed 'winbind' component with your distribution package manager.

This is needed for the -Zi option of the compiler, and other mechanisms that handle 'PDB' (Program Data Base) files.

Debian:

$ aptitude install winbind

Fedora:

$ sudo dnf install samba-winbind*.x86_64 samba-winbind*.i686

VC Express web installer exits silently during download of prerequisites

That's bug 34943 - use following recipe to work around.

$ bash winetricks winhttp

/home/yourlogin/.wine is not owned by you / (Permission denied)

Never run wine as root (su, sudo)! Wine doesn't require to be run as root!

You will screw your WINEPREFIX and possibly other things up. If you have run Wine as root you need to:

$ sudo rm -rf ~/.wine


and then run winecfg to set Wine folder structure back up. If you used winetricks script as root you might also need to:

$ sudo rm -rf ~/.cache/winetricks/


Again: Just run wine as regular user and all should be fine.

Setup has encountered a problem while trying to copy $shtdwn$.req

This is Bug 9158. Only happens with online-installer version (not retail from .ISO image). Use the following workaround in console:

$ _SFX_CAB_SHUTDOWN_REQUEST=1 wine ./vcssetup.exe
The application requested process termination through System.Environment.FailFast

If you encounter the following message/failure on startup:

fixme:shell:URL_ParseUrl failed to parse L"PresentationFramework.Aero"

fixme:advapi:RegisterEventSourceW ((null),L".NET Runtime"): stub

fixme:advapi:ReportEventW (0xcafe4242,0x0001,0x0000,0x00000401,(nil),0x0001,0x00000000,0x3296b8,(nil)): stub

err:eventlog:ReportEventW L"Application: Updater.exe\nFramework Version: v4.0.30319\nDescription: The application requested process termination through System.Environment.FailFast(string message).\nMessage: Unrecoverable system error.\nStack:\n at System.Environment.FailFast(System.String)\n at MS.Internal.Invariant.FailFas"...

fixme:advapi:DeregisterEventSource (0xcafe4242) stub

This is bug 32323.

You are missing 'winetricks corefonts' recipe.

Fonts in IDE look ugly

Try to enable subpixel font smoothing using 'winetricks':

$ bash winetricks fontsmooth=rgb
Visual Studio 2010 seems to freeze on startup

Actually it's not a freeze but a popup/dialog hidden behind the splash screen.

You press "ENTER" (while keeping the splash in focus) to continue.

Hangs in installs
by Don Woodhouse on Thursday May 22nd 2014, 15:03
Correction the hangs seem to be a little more than stuck wizards, but must be minor since no substantial error message is generated. The hangs can be reduced greatly by doing without .NET 3.5, and only installing dotnet20(with sp2?) and dotnet40. This, however, will mean being able to target only .NET 4.0 with your applications. Using 3.5 seems to complicate matters right in the install process. Possible would be to install without 3.5, then add .NET 3.5 later, once more of the subpackages have initial functionality. You will not be able to use the existing winetricks dotnet35 scripts for this.
Plain compiler works fine
by Martin Storsjö on Tuesday May 7th 2013, 17:06
If the executables (and headers and libs) are copied out from an existing installation (on real windows), the plain compiler (cl.exe and link.exe) work just fine, even if the installer (and perhaps IDE) don't work.
