Hi all,
I need to install Webload on my Linux machine.
The following is the link from where i downloaded Webload exe :-http://
www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/Other-Internet-Related/WebLoad.shtml

Since it is an exe i tried to install Webload using Wine.But the error
it displayed was of some missing dlls.MFC42 was one of the dlls.After
downloading the above dll and running the WebLoad.exe im still getting
an error. The following is some part of the error message:-

11537: assertion failed "(*(const char*)_DBUS_FUNCTION_NAME) != '_'"
file "dbus-connection.c" line 2877 function
_dbus_connection_read_write_dispatch
wine: Call from 0x12654ea to unimplemented function MFC42.DLL.6571,
aborting
wine: Unimplemented function MFC42.DLL.6571 called at address
0x12654ea (thread 0009), starting debugger...
Unhandled exception: unimplemented function MFC42.DLL.6571 called in
32-bit code (0x7bc38d4c).
Register dump:


Could anybody please help me in installing WebLoad.
Thanks

It looks more like the mfc42.dll you are using has the wrong version.
Try to use a different (usually newer) one.

The M$ DLL Help Database lists what versions are available:

You also need MFC40 for this app, or you get the following errors
during install:
err:module:import_dll Library MFC42.DLL (which is needed by L"C:\
\windows\\system32\\Odometer.ocx") not found
err:module:import_dll Library MFC40.DLL (which is needed by L"C:\
\windows\\system32\\Ss32x25.ocx") not found

I would be very careful downloading MFC42 etc. from random places
on the net, you might get the wrong version. I got the app to start
working;
here's my recipe:

cd ~
rm -rf .wine
wget http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks
sh winetricks vcrun6 mfc40 msxml3
wget
http://internap.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/webload/WebLOAD_Open_Source_Full_Installer_8.0.5.018.en.exe
wine WebLOAD_Open_Source_Full_Installer_8.0.5.018.en.exe
cd ".wine/drive_c/Program Files/WebLOAD"
wine bin/WebLoad.exe (and click OK when the dialog box comes up)

To get past the text services crash, do

cd ".wine/drive_c/Program Files/WebLOAD"
wget
http://media.codeweavers.com/pub/crossover/office/support/richedit30.exe
cabextract richedit30.exe
winecfg (and in the Libraries tab, add override for richedit20)
wine bin/WebLoad.exe

I filed http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8596 with this info.

Hope that helps. This is a complex app, and you should expect more
trouble
later. Please report back with a recipe to reproduce the problem when
it does...
