[NinjaTrader] NinjaTrader 7 under Wine

Big Mike · February 9th, 2010, 02:42 AM

Has anyone had any success installing NT7 with Wine?

My laptop is running Linux Mint 8, 2.6.31. Wine v1.01 it seems (might look for a newer version).

A regular run of setup.exe fails after prompting for the installation directory (C:\Program Files\NinjaTrader 7). I also tried downloading the .msi directly and running it:
wine msiexec /i NinjaTrader.Install.msi ALLUSERS=1

Code:

Installed Mono 2.6.1 for Windows under Wine.

Re-ran the msiexec, got this exception and the setup crashed

Looks like winetricks might be needed and the experimental dotnet35. Before I go much further I am wondering if anyone else has got it to work...

Mike,

I successfully tweaked MetaTrader 4 and quite a few Windows-based FX platforms (e. g. HotSpotFx) to run on Linux (specifically, Foresight Linux) using Wine, some two years ago; but I did not succeed in tweaking NT.

When I got my MacBook machines over a year ago, I was also able to tweak MetaTrader 4 and HotspotFx to run natively on my MAC OS X using Darwine (a variant of Wine for MAC OS X); but again, I could not succeed in tweaking NT.

From my experience and understanding, NT may not be tweak-able to run on Linux or MAC OS X because NT depends on .NET to run. Even Mono did not help my tweaking process.

I'm currently having a look at this. You may wish to have a look at it too.

You might want to check out Cedega, and Crossover.

I haven't tried them, but I've heard their a lot more user friendly than Wine.

CrossOver cannot run .NET (see this), and it is a commercial product. Cedega is for games.

Hmm. Well, I upgraded to Wine 1.2 and installed winetricks, then installed dotnet35 via winetricks. It crashed on the final step. Now nothing runs at all, NT7 setup won't even launch.

Guess I need to figure out how to uninstall that and try again.

On my Foresight Linux with Wine, I'm able to get the NT 6.5 splash screen displayed, and "Loading server side config files" seems to be successful, but the splash screen disappeared a few seconds of displaying "Loading custom assemblies"; and this is where I'm stuck for now (see screenshot on the left).

The screenshott on the right shows the various Windows apps I successfully installed on my Foresight Linux, with the followings successfully running

ATC FX Pro - MT4
HostspotFxr
ICTS-Wintrader
FXCM Trading Station II
MetaTrader 4 Alpari UK - MT4
FxPro MetaTrader - MT4

The other Windows apps such as NT and VT Trader were successfully installed but do not run.

I'll keep on tweaking-on on NT.

Big Mike · February 11th, 2010, 05:18 PM

According to this, you should be able to get further.

I'll try uninstalling dotnet35 and wine 1.2, and re-doing it and see if I can get further on NT7.
