[SOLVED] WoW and arch64 bit

nixIT · 2011-05-29 04:27:06

Hello all,

I've successfully ran WoW in Arch32, and I've recently upgraded my rig to and installed Arch64. I followed the wiki in installing wine, including the 32bit libraries.

I used the same install of WoW, an when i run it:

WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=/mnt/gamedata/games/.win32-wow wine wow.exe -opengl

I went the login page, entered my WoW credentials and I get a message:

"There was an error logging in. Please try again later..."

I copied my WoW directory to my windows partition and rebooted.

This time I booted into windows 7 64bit, and launched WoW. Logged into Wow and was able to play just fine.

Any idea why I can't run it on Arch64?

Did you install lib32-libldap from the [multilib] repo?

multilib/lib32-libldap 2.4.22-3 [installed]
    Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) client libraries (32-bit)

After-thought here... but just to make sure, you should also have the lib32- equivalent of your graphics driver libraries installed...

Mine would be:

multilib/lib32-nvidia-utils 270.41.19-1 [installed]
    NVIDIA drivers utilities and libraries. (32-bit)
