BUG #2
If you have seen a message like this:
"Error starting program: The WININET.DLL file is linked to missing export
SHLWAPI.DLL:StrNCatA."
then this bug fix is for you.
The problem:
Windows applications look for Dynamic Linking Libraries (DLLs)
first in the system folder, then in the application folder. My DLL files,
located in the program directory, are the last place the program looks, not the
first, as I intended.
The solution:
Simple (recommended)
-
Remove the DLL file WININET.DLL from the Arachnophilia program directory. Put
it somewhere safe.
-
Test Arachnophilia. If it works, halt. Pour wine, rejoice.
Intermediate (takes more time)
-
Go to the
Arachnophilia Home Page
and download the WININET.ZIP file, unpack it, and place its contents into your
Arachnophilia program directory. This should solve the problem. If it does not,
please tell me at my
message page.
This should solve the problem, until I can make my program search for DLL files
in a different way.
If you apply these remedies and one succeeds, please tell me at my
message page.
Also, recent releases intentionally have older DLL files, in an
attempt to
solve this problem by brute force.
