I have the Crossover Office implementation of Wine on my Linux 9 system. I've installed off of my CD of AB 1.4d with no errors during install. I've installed the 2.2c upgrade with no errors during install. However, when I try to start the program I receive an error "Failed to prepare product launch."

I'm attaching the portion of the user.reg file relating to AB. The key is obfuscated, but is otherwise verbatim. Please let me know if you see any anomalies that would cause the problem.

Thanks,
Ray

That's funny, I was just going to try to install it here in the same
setup... on a 2.4.20-8 kernel box with the latest version of
Crossdress... errr Crossover Office.

What version of crossover did you try it with?

I get precisely the same error with all the different builds of WINE that I've
tried. It seems like something related to the licensing, but I can't for the
life of me figure it out.

I just tried and I got the same error as well... I think it's more
then likely related to the checksum that army builder does for the
licensing that's causing the problem.

Has anyone gotten it to work through wine?

I am using RH9, 2.4.20-8 kernel. Crossover is version 2. I used to use 1.2 but it would not install correctly under the new version of RedHat.
