Hi,

The program does require a PostgreSQL database.  However, it does not have to
be the Windows version.  Indeed, previous versions of this program have worked
fine for me under wine with a native Linux SQL server, and the option to do so
is even documented on the application's website.

So, I download the version of the application installer marked 'without
PostgreSQL'.  I'm currently encountering this error using Beta 19 of the
software, which is the latest version, although the same issue came up with the
past couple betas as well as Build 3, the latest stable release.  I have tried
it on a clean wine prefix.

The program does use Armadillo software protection, but previous versions did
too, and worked fine.  Actually, some people had problems, others didn't --
apparently there's a race condition somewhere -- see
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13178 .  For the people who did have
problems with it, it failed relatively gracefully with an error message; it
didn't just hang.  Anyway, it seems to get beyond that and into the normal
application start up before freezing.

Thanks
