I try to install a Windows program on Ubuntu. This program needs .NET40.
Afaik I have two options:
I use
wine
, installwinetricks
and withwinetricks dotnet40
and everything with win32-architecture (because dotnet40 only installs on 32bit). After successful installation viawine Setup.exe
and trying to start the application withwine Program.exe
I get strange error boxes so I tried the second way.I install mono.
If I try to call
mono Setup.exe
I'll get:Cannot open assembly 'Setup.exe': File does not contain a valid CIL image.
and somewhere else I read that it isn't possible to run setups with mono. Is there a way to run the setup with mono?
I call
Setup.exe
withwine
which works and afterwards I try to start the installed program withmono Program.exe
. But now the program doesn't find its required resources. Is there a possibility to tell mono where the installed files are placed?
