Solaris 11 open exe file

I have a question about how can I open some exe file in Solaris OS? I have tried to install wine, but I found only old wine version to solaris 5.11. I think the file is too old. I use Solaris 11.

I used that commands
Code:
# bunzip2 Wine-1.1.2-solaris-5.11-i86pc.pkg.bz2

# pkgadd -d ./Wine-1.1.2-solaris-5.11-i86pc.pkg

Everything run

After

Code:
/usr/local/wine/bin/wine --version
wine-1.1.2

next
Code:
/usr/local/wine/bin/wine PathToSomeFile.exe 

err:process:start-wineboot failed to start wineboot, err 1359

and the system is restarted

There's no such thing as "Solaris 5.11". But it seems, from your post, that you got it working anyway.

I would recommend, in the absence of any answer here, that you Google specialised Wine forums. It seems like Wine is working, but taking exception to the binary you are trying to run with it.

Run "uname -r" on a Solaris 11 install and you get "5.11".

Indeed, but that means SunOS 5.11, not Solaris 5.11. The package the OP found is seven years old and predates Solaris 11 by three years. It was built for OpenSolaris.

@Tsuisou I would recommend to rebuild Wine from the current sources but there is a risk for this to be complex and to require code fixes. If you want to run Windows binaries on a machine running Solaris 11, the easiest way is to install VirtualBox and a Windows guest in it.
