hello!

i recently installed playonlinux over the synaptic installation tool. then i installed steam, over the "install" function of playonlinux.

now when i try to start steam in playonlinux, the following error comes:

Running Steam
/Steam/: No such file or directoryPlayOnLinux/wineprefix/Steam/drive_c/Programme
wine: Modul nicht gefunden

i tryed to fix this problem over this command:

gedit ~/.PlayOnLinux/configurations/installed/Steam
the file looks like this:

#!/bin/bash
export WINEPREFIX="/home/johnny/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/Steam"
export WINEDEBUG="-all"
cd "/home/johnny/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/Steam/drive_c/Programme
/Steam/"
wine "Steam.exe" $@

Please Help! Whats wrong?!?

Thank you!

Hello,

There is a bug actually in PoL since Wine 1.1.36. So the best solution is to edit the script's launcher.

#!/bin/bash
export WINEPREFIX="/home/johnny/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/Steam"
export WINEDEBUG="-all"
cd "/home/johnny/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/Steam/drive_c/Programme/Steam/"
wine "Steam.exe" $@


Instead of :

#!/bin/bash
export WINEPREFIX="/home/johnny/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/Steam"
export WINEDEBUG="-all"
cd "/home/johnny/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/Steam/drive_c/Programme
/Steam/"
wine "Steam.exe" $@
