Running EA under Ubuntu
« on: February 09, 2011, 10:04:52 am »
I'm running EA under linux (Ubuntu 10.10).  The application is working well.  I have a repository sitting in a PostgreSQL database that I'm trying to get to.  Using the instructions on http://www.sparxsystems.com/support/faq/enterprise-architect-WINE.html I have tried to connect to that repository.  I have installed the postgresql 32-bit driver.  I have verified that the driver works (i'm able to test the connection in the ODBC editor as well as the Data Link Properties in EA).  However, when I attempt to go to the repository I get an error "The program EA.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience."  The only issues during the install are:
1. winetricks allfonts fails on Euro-fixi (can't connect)
2. winetricks dcom98 doesn't install ("Installing dcom98 is no longer needed or useful with modern wine.")

I've tried with wine running as windows98 and windowsxp.  Neither seems to work.  Any ideas?

I'm using the exact same scenario with the exception that I use a MySql db as my repository. Everything works fine (followed the instructions).
