Do you see the line saying "Application tried to create a window" ?
So, it's not a console application, when it tried to create a window. It cannot
be run on a system without proper X server setup (of course it can be remote,
but the app requires it). Another line saying "Could not create tray window"
just seconds, what has been said.

Another point, already answered by oiaohm, is, that you probably don't need
event log viewer on Linux using wine.
