Greetings,

I'm having trouble with POM.

Computer: MBP 14" M1 Pro running Monterey 12.2.1
POM: 4.4.3

 

I installed a very simple 64-bit windows program using the 'Install a non-listed program' option. For the virtual drive, I selected the '64-bits Windows Installation' option. This works perfectly and I am able to successfully install the program. The program installer has an option to 'launch now' once the install is done, and if I select this option the program starts and runs perfectly.

 

Once the install is done and I try to start the program I get the following error:

Error in POL_Wine
Starting 64-bit process FastLogEntry.exe is not supported in 32-bit virtual drives

 

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling (deleting the virtual drive each time) several times with the same result. This seems like a bug since I choose the '64-bits Windows Installation' option during installation. Why does it say I have a 32-bit virtual drive? The only way I can get my 'FastLogEntry.exe' program to work now is to remove it and reinstall it / select the 'launch now' option from the program's installer. Once I exit the program, it will not run again and throws the above error.

 

Any assistance with this would be appreciated. I am very happy that the program seems to work perfectly in POM and hope there is a solution or work-around for this error. I did not expect that I would be able to run this 64 bit windows program on an M1 Mac, so this was a nice surprise - well done POM team! 

 

Thank you,

Josh

Update: I ran POM from Terminal and selected the option to use a different version of Wine. When it comes to the screen to select the version of Wine, the only available option is 'System', and in Terminal I see this:

 

[POL_SetupWindow_checkbox_list] Message: checkbox_list answer: Use another version of Wine

find: /Users/myusername/Library/PlayOnMac//wine/darwin-x86/*: No such file or directory

 

I verified that the path does exist, but there is nothing in the darwin-x86 folder. OK, do I need to install a different version of Wine? As stated in my first post, the Windows program that I want to run does work using whatever the 'system' version of Wine is, but only during the install process. Once the install is complete, I get an error when trying to run it.

 

Here is another error ('Bad CPU type in executable') that might be the cause of my problem - this happens during the install of my program:

 

[POL_System_SetArch] Message: POL_ARCH set to x86on64

/Applications/PlayOnMac.app/Contents/Resources/playonlinux/lib/wine.lib: line 896: /Applications/PlayOnMac.app/Contents/Resources/playonlinux/../unix/wine/bin/wine: Bad CPU type in executable

 

And this:

 

[POL_Wine_PrefixCreate] Message: No version specified. Using system version ()

[POL_Wine_PrefixCreate] Message: Creating prefix ()...

[POL_Wine_PrefixCreate] Message: Setting WINEARCH to win64

/Applications/PlayOnMac.app/Contents/Resources/playonlinux/lib/wine.lib: line 964: /Applications/PlayOnMac.app/Contents/Resources/playonlinux/../unix/wine/bin/wine: Bad CPU type in executable

 

Now, with my program installed if I go to 'Configure' and then enter the 'wine versions manager' screen, there are no versions listed in either of the columns. Here is what I see in Terminal:

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

So, this might be a different problem but it looks like some kind of SSL cert problem is keeping POM from getting the list wine versions. I am able to open the URL just fine in a browser: https://phoenicis.playonlinux.com/index.php/wine?os=darwin

 

Next I will research if it is possible to manually install another version of wine and see if this can resolve my problem.

So

After some reading and google searching, I figured out that this version of POM only supports the 'System' version of wine, which is 32-bit. Also the ability to install different versions of wine is broken. Hopefully this is fixed in a future release!

macOS 10.15+ does not longer support 32bit.

Therefore, we are forced to execute a special wine version that runs 32bits program with 64bits wine binaries. Only few version support this

MacBook Pro, Apple M1 Pro

macOS Monterey 12.4 (21F79)

 

My reply is bit old, may be this will someone else.

I downloaded the 32 bit version of the installer. 

Thankfully Notepad++ people still makes both versions.

Then I installed it as a program that I downloaded and it worked.

This is the version I installed.

https://github.com/notepad-plus-plus/notepad-plus-plus/releases/download/v7.8/npp.7.8.Installer.exe

Another issue I noticed is that once installed, Notepad++ cannot see any files inside ~/Documents.

I even gave Full Disk Access in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy tab > Full Disk Access (on LHS list) > Add PlayOnMac.app to the list off allowed apps using the plus button

In the end created my own ~/MyDocuments folder and using that for files I would edit with Notepad++
