PHPRunner 5.2 using Wine in Ubuntu...

Hi all,
I'm having a hard time running PHPRunner 5.2 using Wine in Ubuntu. Most things work when I add IE8 to Wine, but when I get to events the program crashes. I suspect Wine is missing some MS tools.
I know PHPRunner was not meant to run under Wine, but it would be great if this could work!
Thanks,
Bert

If you have a Windows XP license, try VirtualBox or VMware and it will work.

Thanks, VirtualBox and XP work. I can even get MySQL under XP use the master database under Linux via a shared folder.
There is one issue however: I cannot get the PHPRunner FTP to work. It freezes after 10-20% of the files. Generating the files on the XP HDD doesn't make any difference. Still looking for a solution.
FYI: Under Ubuntu 10.04 & Wine 1.3.1 beta PHPRunner doesn't even start anymore. (odbc32.dll error...)
