Dreamweaver CS3 on linux

Ok, i spend 4 hours to manage and run dreamweaver...

here is a screenshot again.. running full dreamweaver.



First download Dreamweaver portable from Here

then from wine open browse c:\Drive and create in program files folder "Adobe"

inside adobe folder create another "Adobe Dreamweaver CS3"

after that copy dreamweaver.exe (the file you download) in dreamweaver folder.

thats it. create a shortcut to execute from desktop...

Hi its not work for me. It says.
Archive: /home/zeybek/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Dreamweaver CS3/Dreamweaver.exe
Zip file size: 326428567 bytes, number of entries: 17801

warning [/home/zeybek/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Dreamweaver CS3/Dreamweaver.exe]: end-of-central-directory record claims this
is disk 17801 but that the central directory starts on disk 35808; this is a
contradiction. Attempting to process anyway.
error [/home/zeybek/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Dreamweaver CS3/Dreamweaver.exe]: missing 7266102408 bytes in zipfile
(attempting to process anyway)
error [/home/zeybek/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Dreamweaver CS3/Dreamweaver.exe]: attempt to seek before beginning of zipfile
(please check that you have transferred or created the zipfile in the
appropriate BINARY mode and that you have compiled UnZip properly)

what is the problem.

Is working. Install winetricks and will work.
Try to install MS Visual C++ 2005 or vc6 or both.

It doesn't work for me, it's a waste of time this tutorial.

I have installed all the vb6 components, when I lauch the .exe file it's pop up a series of errors.

Maybe make small video tutorial like about 1/2 minute - put it on youtube - You will help us more.

Are you people stupid?

You need to change the permissions within "Properties"

Completely waste of time, i downloaded the file and tried to work through the instructions. Couldn't get it to work at all, what does this mean : then from wine open browse c:\Drive and create in program files folder "Adobe" ?

hi, does this works even for other CS * and other adobe apps? i tryed with PSD cs2 and Dreamweaver 8... no way!
PSD is in spanish (it seams to fail loading english) and dreamweaver showes strange errors. does the apps have to be in ./wine/c/programms... ? coz mine is in /home/io/Adobe/psd.

thanks

PS: sorry for my bad english

Excellent !
Works just fine, do not forget to set the properties of the file (Permission tab) to "allow executing file as program"
cheers
