Debugging Windows Apps under Wine / Crossover Office.

[jxfish2]

I placed a previous post under CAD applications on Linux...

I am using a really nice CAD/CAM application designed specifically for Windows...

However, I am running Crossover Office and Wine under SuSE Linux 9.1 Professional...

I can install this Windows CAD/CAM application using the Crossover Office Interface for Unsupported Applications...

Again, it appears to install correctly, with no errors generated...

However, when I attempt to start it, my system thinks about it for 30 seconds, then just quits trying...

I don't see any errors in /var/log/messages, nor can I find a specific error log for wine...

Any help in debugging this application startup would be greatly appreciated...

If I can get this Windows Application to run on my Linux box, it will be the last thing I need, in order to "de-commission" my Windows box...

I already have everything else I need, already running on my Linux box...

TIA

I would use truss or strace and see what these programs
have to say about the failure. You may need to save the
op to a file for later.
See man 2 ptrace and man 1 strace.
