PlayOnLinux v2.0
----------------
Checking python : [ Ok ]
Notepad++: line 4: cd: /home/anubis/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/NotepadPlusPlus//drive_c/Program Files/Notepad++: No such file or directory
wine: could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\
otepad++.exe": Module not found

that's normal because the path is NOT

/home/anubis/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/NotepadPlusPlus//drive_c/Program Files/Notepad++

but

/home/anubis/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/NotepadPlusPlus/drive_c/Programmi/Notepad++

anubis@linux-pc:~/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/NotepadPlusPlus/drive_c> ls

What version of wine are you using ?

(You are not in the right section)

why wrong section... it looks like a bug or not?

anyway.... 0.9.53

I think you have to edit the script launching notepad++ ( $HOME/.PlayOnLinux/configurations/installed/Notepad++ )


You have just to change the direction of the directory opened
cd "/home/user/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/NotepadPlusPlus//drive_c/Program Files/Notepad++"
become:
cd "/home/user/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/NotepadPlusPlus//drive_c/Programmi/Notepad++"

I think it is because you have an Italien version of wine. In french or in english, it is "Program Files"

infact..works

By the way, why are there two slashes between "NotepadPlusPlus" and "drive_c"?

I have this same problem, because Wine respects my systems locale settings and playonlinux does not. This prevents the launcher from working, and also breaks some install scripts.

PlayOnLinux really needs a way to specify paths like "Program Files" and "Application Data" (on my computer, the names are "Programfiler" and "Fellesfiler".

I suggest that you scrape the system.reg file in a shell file that gets .source'd by all install scripts:
PROGRAMFILES="drive_c$(grep -e \"ProgramFiles\" system.reg|tr -d \"|tr = /|cut -d/ -f2 -|cut -d: -f2)"

This will give a relative path like "drive_c\\Program Files"

Hi, im from Argentina, sorry for my english...

i have the same problem installing M$ Office 2003 Spanish Version,
POL keep searching " Program Files " but the CD install it in " Archivos de Programa ".

A Script could correct this problems...? sounds easy.
thanks for all...

we will work on a solution as soon as possible, stay tuned

It should be marked as SOLVED.

Thanks a lot, this is REAL support.

Same issue here. I have a spanish version of openSuse. programs install themselves in the ARCHIVOS DE PROGRAMA directory and the scrip calls PROGRAM FILES

Play on linux version 3.something .. sorry the about button don't work
OpenSuse 11 x86_64
wine 1.1.0
game Diablo 2 installed yesterday.(game works changing directory names)

I second that: "I think you have to edit the script launching notepad++ ( $HOME/.PlayOnLinux/configurations/installed/Notepad++ ) "

VeauX, you should try the same thing.

Go to $HOME/.PlayOnLinux/configurations/installed/ folder and edit your scripts (i.e. change Program files to Archivos de programa).

SOLVED
Any questions, PM me.

No issue I did that and it worked like a charm. Just mentioning this as a bug because it should simply not happen... doing it each time I install somehting new is not the solution of that bug, just a countermeasure. The root cause is not solved.

Since PlayOnLinux 3.1, this problem is solved.
