[SOLVED] POL says wine crashes while configuring - shows the wrong URL

I have wine 2.2 and 2.6 installed on POL through Tools>Manage wine versions.

I created a virtual 32 bit system and ticked on the check boxes to install a new version of wine and configure wine too.  I selected wine 2.6 installed previously and when I proceed, POL says wine has crashed.

I tried opening wine configuration page by going to Configure button and choosing the virtual drive. But I am only able to click on the wine configuration button. It doesn't open up anything.

[POL_Wine] Message: Running wine-2.7 --version (Working directory : /usr/share/playonlinux/python)
[POL_Wine] Message: Notice: PlayOnLinux deliberately disables winemenubuilder. See http://www.playonlinux.com/fr/page-26-Winemenubuilder.html
/usr/share/playonlinux/lib/wine.lib: line 527: /home/toor/.PlayOnLinux//wine/linux-x86/2.7/bin/wine: No such file or directory
[POL_Wine] Error: Wine seems to have crashed

If your program is running, just ignore this message

I noticed that the third line has an extra / - PlayOnLinux//wine. And there is indeed so such folder as /wine, but on the other hand there is a folder called wine inside /PlayOnLinux. Should it be It should be .PlayOnLinux/wine?

I opened /usr/share/playonlinux/lib/wine.lib hoping to edit that extra / and line 527 says.

$BEFORE_WINE $(POL_Config_Read BEFORE_WINE) wine "$@"  2> >(grep -v menubuilder --line-buffered | tee -a "$WINEPREFIX/playonlinux.log" >&2) > >(tee -a "$WINEPREFIX/playonlinux.log")

I was able to run POL and apps from this system earlier. I had to reinstall the OS and since then the new installation of POL doesn't configure wine. In terminal this is what I get during the error. I used this iso to install - https://forums.bunsenlabs.org/viewtopic … 197#p46197. My POL version is 4.2.5 installed by

sudo apt install playonlinux

Re: [SOLVED] POL says wine crashes while configuring - shows the wrong URL

I tried installing wine:i386 as mentioned here, https://www.playonlinux.com/en/download.html, under debian and POL was able to set up the virtual drive and open the wine configuration window.

However I am just confused as to why. The POL website asks to install wine:i386 only for wheezy user and I am using Jessie.

^ You can remove the BunsenLabs "branding" with this command:

sudo apt purge bunsen-os-release

The system will then identify itself as Debian jessie for any installation scripts.

That didn't help as such when I tried it in a new live system. However I later realized that perhaps it was because the 32 bit architecture wasn't added before installing POL

dpkg --add-architecture i386
apt-get update
