#1 Re: Installation » Wine 64-bit Prefix on Devuan 5 (daedalus) » 2024-09-23 21:54:12

Thanks for the prompt response, Altoid and delgado! And, thanks for the welcome to the community! I am still feeling no love from my machine.

I attempted the solution from the reference post recommended by Altoid:

 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine64/ WINEARCH=win64 wine64 ~/Downloads/Toontrack/Toontrack_Product_Manager_WIN/'Windows 10'/'Toontrack Product Manager Installer.exe' 

Response in terminal:

 wine: created the configuration directory '/home/gerald/.wine64' 
 wine: '/home/gerald/.wine64' is a 32-bit installation, it cannot support 64-bit applications. 

I then tried adding the i386 architecture as recommended by delgado:

 sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 

And then:

 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine64/ WINEARCH=win64 wine64 ~/Downloads/Toontrack/Toontrack_Product_Manager_WIN/'Windows 10'/'Toontrack Product Manager Installer.exe' 

Response in terminal:

 wine: created the configuration directory '/home/gerald/.wine64' 
 wine: '/home/gerald/.wine64' is a 32-bit installation, it cannot support 64-bit applications. 

Do you know anything else that I can try?

Apparently wine64 runs, because I can call it in the terminal and receive a response, such as:

 wine64 --version 

Response in terminal:

 wine-9.0 

I just can't get Wine to build a 64-bit prefix. I've attempted multiple internet searches (had actually seen the one recommended by Altoid but just didn't run the entire code) and can find no solution. That is why I turned to the Devuan community hoping that some of you who are much more prolific in Linux than I can help. I'm frustrated. Anything else I can try?

I am running 64-bit Devuan 5 (daedalus). I verified the 64-bit architecture using the terminal command:

 dpkg --print-architecture 

I received the response:

 amd64 

I am attempting to load a 64-bit Wine prefix.

I installed Wine 9.0 Stable 64-bit (wine-stable-amd64) using the Synaptic Package Manger. I see the wine64 executable in the /opt/wine-stable/bin/ directory.

In the terminal I attempted to create a 64-bit Wine prefix:

 WINEARCH=win64 winecfg 

However, I receive the following response in the terminal:

 wine: created the configuration directory '/home/gerald/.wine' 
 wine: WINEARCH set to win64 but '/home/gerald/.wine' is a 32-bit installation. 

Can someone please help and tell me what I am doing wrong? I am still somewhat of a Linux noob.

Thanks in advance!
