Winebottler prefix creation exited with error

Hi okay.
I am running OSX 10.6.2 (Snow Leopard).
I have X11 2.3.4
I have installed the latest WinebottlerCombo 1.1.35 (includes Wine)

I have a pc file with .exe on the end it will put software into my mac version of DAZ Studio.

I had this working when I had 10.5.8 installed, but then I had to go and mess things up.

When I open my exe file the window opens up:
You are about to install a Wine file
What would you like to do with it?
•run directly in users/michelle/Wine Files
•Convert to simple OSX Application bund with Winebottler.

(I’ve tried both)
the first one run directly… (this is the one I used previously) when I click go, nothing happens

When I choose the 2nd Convert to simple OSX…
The WineBottler opens. I leave all presets and click install, Save As new name click save -> I get the install bar, then it stops and I get this message (everytime)
Prefix creation exited with error (you find a logfile to help with debuggin on you desktop.

I’m posting the report just incase someone can read it:

Have you hunted down the fix yet?

I believe it’s making some calls to the web to install fonts that Internet Explorer uses, the website it calls is down. I think at least…have you had any luck with this?

since posting this…
I’ve got winebottler working.
It only seems to work on older files tho (dont know why)

How?

How did you get it working eventually?

How did you get it working eventually?

Well… It wasnt that it didn’t work.
I kept trying different installers (I’m relentless)
and then all of a sudden some started to work.
I noticed it was the older ones that I was trying to open worked. I had been trying newer ones they kept giving me this message.

Are you trying to install poser software also?

Ie6

By older installers you mean, older revisions of Winebottler like Winebottler 1.1.34 and 1.1.33?

No I’m just trying to get IE6 running.

No I’m just trying to get IE6 running.

No older versions of the pc’s installer software.
I don’t this I’m going to be of any help to you.
If you were trying to open Poser stuff I’d have talked you thru.
The software I was opening is really just a matter of unpacking it, it doesnt
really install any working software.

Have you seen this thread tho?

I have the answer!!

To install an .exe you need to open package contents of Winebottler in finder, click on «Contents»
click on «MacOS»
click on «Winebottler»
when it opens search for «vc» in the search field
tick the one that says «vcrun6»
then select your install file and click «Install»
Works for me atleast

Works for Metatrader 4 when I selected these four..

Hi! I know this is a fairly old thread, but does anybody have any tips for using Winebottler to install PC games on Mac? I keep running into some snags, while attempting this. I try convert the game installer EXE to a «simple OS X application bundle» and it starts installing and gets stuck halfway. Sometimes it finishes, if I click on the unfinished app icon, that appears on the desktop and then the game’s startup window appears. It tries to finish installing the game and updates, but keeps quitting unexpectedly, so I can never actually get the game to open. After trying to reopen it a few time, I get an error message, telling me I need to start over. I don’t know anything about coding, or programing, but if anyone has any tips that could help me get this game working, I’d really appreciate it.

Check out PlayOnMac. It uses Wine, but it has scripts for all the special Wine settings you need to get games and programs working. Here’s a link to their site: https://www.playonmac.com/en/supported_apps-1-0.html

FWIW I was installing a game and got served «»Setup was unable to find (or could not read) the language specific setup resource dll, unable to continue. Please reboot and try again.»» which on some googling seemed like a file permission issue. So instead of just using the installer option (default) I used the 3rd option «This is an actual program, copy it and all files in same fiolder» and then everything works as expected!

Hi, I just received a medical record CD (x-ray, MRI images etc.) which can only be opened and run by pc (win machine). I use mac with wine.app and winebottler.app installed. When I load the CD and try to open it, the program starts to run, show the home page (hospital pic), and show the diagnostic results… but no images in the viewer! I try to create an app bundle for the CD and it completes the app. And I run the app to get the same thing — no images can be seen! I didn’t check any winetricks when creating the app. Are there any I need to check? I don’t know the name of the CD program, but the command file should be: «DCSSTART.EXE» Thanks for help

try kpacs (pacs is picture archive), its free , it will read the cd. maybe the default cd view is not compatible with wine or video card , however thats just the frontend, the images will be there in DICOM (hospital standard) or they will be in jpegs(computer images). open the file to insure there are other files besides the image viewer software
