I just downloaded and installed the new wine version (debug too) available for my distro. I decided after your last response to me that I should just wait for a new release.
So I'm running wine 20040716 on Mandrake 10.0 now. I get past everything in the beginning just fine, but the moment I try to connect to a world (saved worlds and quick connect), it crashes. I'm going to try getting the version without debug since I actually ran debug and all it could tell me with mushclient.exe was that it couldn't find the debug msg...which is a really useless error.

Alright, I suppose I can try to just tinker with Wine until something works, or at least I get a similar error to one discussed on the forum.

It is hard to fix that sort of thing if I can't reproduce it. Different versions of Wine, different versions of Linux. Hard to know what the problem really is.

It seems to think it is getting a new connection for each line it receives, for some reason.

Which version of Wine do you have? It might be generating a spurious Windows message. That doesn't happen to me, even when unregistered.

Yes, it shows the response from the MUD. I use open world as I have them previously saved from when I used older versions of MUSHclient in Windows. I tried new world and quick connect and they react in the same way.

When I connect, I get:

Thank you for evaluating MUSHclient version 3.50!

----> This is an UNREGISTERED copy <----

To purchase your registration please visit:
http://www.mushclient.com/fee.htm

For information and assistance about MUSHclient visit our forum at:
http://www.gammon.com.au/forum/

This message does not appear once you have registered.
(The above links can be found under the Help menu)

But I also get this three times after and whenever I send a command:
--- Connected on Tuesday, July 06, 2004, 9:41 PM ---
******
****** UNREGISTERED copy of MUSHclient!
******

When I get it more than once, it seems to depend on how much I receive back from the MUD, but it's not consistent. Like a command that gives me only about three lines would give me the message once, but commands giving me more, like when I look in a room, would give it to me twice or more.

It should only do that when it initially opens the output window. Does it actually show the reply from the MUD, or do you see nothing other than the "unregistered copy" lines?

Do you use "quick connect" or "new world"?

I've installed MUSHclient 3.50 and I did have some problems which the registry info you gave helped. There's one problem now though. I find that every command I send to a MUD returns the same message to me that I get when I connect to the MUD--that I've connected and I'm not using a registered copy of MUSHclient. The command sends just fine to the MUD, but four lines of that stuff can be a bit much. And sometimes it even sends it twice to me. Is there some registry setting to get around this?

Alternatively, and a bit more simply, save between the lines here into a file called "mushclient.reg" ...


REGEDIT4

Note the difference between this and the text above, this has single backslashes, and the word "REGEDIT4" at the start.

Then, in Linux, type this:


regedit mushclient.reg


That should import those registry keys into your Wine registry.

You should be able to test it before you register. :)

There *does* seem to be a strange problem with Wine, in that if you start it up initially you get the "stack overflow" you describe. I can't quite see why, however I have a fix for you.

You need to edit your "registry" and add the following lines.

You will probably have a .wine directory under your home directory, and in there a file user.reg.


  1. Edit the file ~/.wine/user.reg

    One way would be to type this:

    vi ~/.wine/user.reg

  2. Go to the end of the file.

    In vi you can type "G" to do that.

  3. Paste the lines below.

    In vi type "o" (lower-case "oh") to add a new line at the end, and then paste the lines below, and then press the <esc> key to exit Insert mode.

  4. Save your changes.

    In vi type "ZZ" to do that.



Now when you start MUSHclient it should not crash.

You might want to back up your user.reg file before making any changes. eg.


cp ~/.wine/user.reg ~/.wine/user.reg.bak

Ok I have fought with this for a while now... it seems to come up and run just fine but whenever I click on the # it is asking for it just shuts down with this error....
err:seh:setup_exception stack overflow 0 bytes in thread 0009 eip 4039aa8b esp 40641000 stack 0x40640000-0x40740000

I know that I dont have the client registered or anything as of yet.... bad me I know.... but I would like to get it running under redhat before I pay for it since with my MS box I use Zmud instead and I am using this program under advise of a friend on another mud.

Because Wine is a work-in-progress, you may find that under Wine MUSHclient is not as reliable as under Windows. Yesterday, for example, it just exited when I was playing with the colour picker. However I could not reproduce it.

Still, once something works it should continue to work.

If you are using Wine I would recommend saving your changes (eg. after adding triggers) fairly often in case it crashes.

Awesome, now I can finally start my total migration to a Linux distro.

Thanks for the extra work Nick :)
