[SOLVED] Installing Eve Online with Wine

Question

I followed this guide: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager. … &iId=25823 in an attempt to install Eve on wine. However, when I try to run the installer.msi file, the install window appears, but the buttons to continue are greyed out. The only button that is not greyed out is the cancel button, and I am not able to press it. It seems like the installer is frozen. When I try to run wine installer.msi, I get:
[d0ublemur@LinuxBox ~/Downloads/EVE_OFFLINE_INSTALLER_FILES]$ wine EVE_Online_Installer_Full_899716.msi
wine: Bad EXE format for Z:\home\d0ublemur\Downloads\EVE_OFFLINE_INSTALLER_FILES\EVE_Online_Installer_Full_899716.msi.
[d0ublemur@LinuxBox ~/Downloads/EVE_OFFLINE_INSTALLER_FILES]$ fixme:ole:RemUnknown_QueryInterface No interface for iid {00000019-0000-0000-c000-000000000046}
And when I run wine start installer.msi, I get:
[d0ublemur@LinuxBox ~/Downloads/EVE_OFFLINE_INSTALLER_FILES]$ wine start EVE_Online_Installer_Full_899716.msi
fixme:ole:RemUnknown_QueryInterface No interface for iid {00000019-0000-0000-c000-000000000046}
fixme:exec:SHELL_execute flags ignored: 0x00000100
[d0ublemur@LinuxBox ~/Downloads/EVE_OFFLINE_INSTALLER_FILES]$ fixme:ntdll:NtLockFile I/O completion on lock not implemented yet
I'm running wine-1.7.44.
I'm not sure where to go from here. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

Ok, so I tried the command in the howto like Lone_Wolf suggested, and it gave me the output:
[d0ublemur@LinuxBox ~/Downloads/EVE_OFFLINE_INSTALLER_FILES]$ wine EVE_Oline_Installer*.exe
wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\EVE_Oline_Installer*.exe"
[d0ublemur@LinuxBox ~/Downloads/EVE_OFFLINE_INSTALLER_FILES]$ fixme:ole:RemUnknown_QueryInterface No interface for iid {00000019-0000-0000-c000-000000000046}
I thought that the "Eve_Oline_Installer" was a typo so i tried
wine Eve_Online_Installer*.exe
and the same thing happened:
[d0ublemur@LinuxBox ~/Downloads/EVE_OFFLINE_INSTALLER_FILES]$ wine EVE_Online_Installer*.exe
wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\EVE_Online_Installer*.exe"
[d0ublemur@LinuxBox ~/Downloads/EVE_OFFLINE_INSTALLER_FILES]$ fixme:ole:RemUnknown_QueryInterface No interface for iid {00000019-0000-0000-c000-000000000046}
