Sometimes Linux cracks me up [Laughing]
Just writing this to have it documented in case someone tries to do what I did.
I could execute my application and connect flawlessly to the MySQL database via MyODBC/unixODBC. But it turns out if I created a shortcut on the Desktop and tried to run the app from there, it wouldn't connect to the database!
It turns out when ran from a shortcut, the exports environment variables are not considered by Gnome!
So if you want to create a "shortcut" on your Desktop to run the application on AMD64, you have to actually create a script file instead that looks like this:
Code:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/odbc/libmysqlclient-i386
export LIB_ODBC_DRIVER_MANAGER=/emul/ia32-linux/usr/lib/libodbc.so.1.0.0
cd /home/username/.wine/drive_c/myapp/
wine myapp.exe
And then configure it to run with SH.
