Wine 2.0 says it supports Office 2013. How do I actually install it?












24















I managed to get Office 2013 almost to work with Crossover, but not with Wine 2.0. Latest Wine is supposed to support Office 2013, but I find no tutorials how to actually achieve that. So if the statement about support is true, how do I accomplish installing MS Office 2013 to Ubuntu with Wine 2.0?

I installed office 2013 and I used to get a black window after starting it up.
I fixed the black screen by following the solution posted in the WineHQ-Forum.



Here's what I did:



Install Wine and Components



First, install wine 2.1 (might als work with 2.0 'winehq-staging')



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wine/wine-builds
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-devel


Install 'winbind'



sudo apt install winbind


Create Clean 32bit Prefix for Win7



Crete a clean 32 bit prefix and start up winecfg:



WINEPREFIX=~/.wine/Office2013 WINEARCH=win32 winecfg


In the winecfg applications tab select "Windows version: Windows 7"
Close wine config and install winetricks



Install Libraries



sudo apt install winetricks


Then start winetricks for your prefix



WINEPREFIX=~/.wine/Office2013 WINEARCH=win32 winetricks


accept "select the default wineprefix" with OK.
Now, select "Install Windows DLL components" and go and install msxml6



I also installed the cambria font, but that shouldn't matter.



Don't close winetricks just yet, you most likely want to fix the black screen bug.



Fix Black Window



In order to fix the black window that impedes Office 13 to be used, add the HKCUSoftwareWineDirect3DMaxVersionGL new DWORD value 30002 (hexa) to the registry.



Here's how to do this:
In Winetricks select Run regedit and wait for the Registry Editor window to open.
In the folder tree expand HKEY_CURRENT_USER - Software - Wine and create a new key in the Wine folder. To do so, right click, select new-->key and name it Direct3D. Now create new-->DWORD Value, rename the file to MaxVersionGL and set the value data to 30002 (hexadecimal).
Close the Registry Editor window.



It should look like this:
Registry Editor Entries
Close the Registry Editor window.



Close the winetricks window and run installer:



Install Office 2013



WINEPREFIX=~/.wine/Office2013 WINEARCH=win32 wine ~/PathTo/Office2013Setup.x86.exe


From here, the install runs and completes 100%.



Open one of the Office programs of your choice. They mostly work, but I found that the Word Math Typesetting does not work and Power Point may not start as well due to "not enough memory or system resources". So, still room for improvement.

In addition to Philippe's answer I installed the following from winetricks:



msftedit
riched20
riched30
riched32
vb6run


That solved the PowerPoint "not enough memory or system resources" issue and black fields issue

  • I tried wine 3.1 from devel install. winetricks had soem errors installing rich* DLLs. I used newest winetricks from source: github.com/Winetricks/winetricks/blob/master/src/winetricks So I could install all DLLs and it worked.

Install Office 2013 pro 32bit



This solution is tested on Ubuntu 17.10 with wine 2.0.2.



Required Dependencies



We need a clean 32bit wine prefix and some packages.



sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt update
sudo apt install cabextract fonts-liberation winbind wine wine32 wine-gecko2.21




  • 32bit wine installation


  • winbind for some samba functions


  • geckofor internet content popups


  • cabextract and wget for downloading corefonts through winetricks


  • fonts-liberation for the free alternatives to Arial etc.




Note that I also recommend wine-3.0 due to its DirectX11 Support. To install, use



wget https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key
sudo apt-key add Release.key
sudo apt-add-repository 'https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/'

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install wine-stable winehq-stable


Installation Process



The recipie is now upstream on winetricks. We need a clean 32bit prefix for it. If you do not have one, prepend WINEPREFIX="${HOME}/.wine-office2013pro" to the wine commands.



First get the newest winetricks:



wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Winetricks/winetricks/master/src/winetricks -O ~/Downloads/winetricks
chmod u+x ~/Downloads/winetricks


and then use the recipie on a 32bit wine prefix.



WINEARCH=win32 wine wineboot
~/Downloads/winetricks office2013pro


msxml6 is installed due to an incompatibility of libxml.the setup is straight forward.



First start



The installed desktop files are located in



~/.local/share/applications/wine/Programs/Microsoft Office 2013


welcome messagepowerpoint



There should be a welcome messages that connects to the internet (only on wine-3.0) and lets you activate the product.




  • Microsoft Word 2013 will start fine. Although, there are certainly some bugs in it.


  • Microsoft PowerPoint 2013 has some unresolved issues like the black slides. Sometimes it also refuses to start at first. If so, do not press reboot when asked, as it will exit wine.



do not press reboot in powerpoint



Product Activaton



On wine-3.0 activation is possible over the internet.



On wine-2.0the product can be activated via telephone. The phone number is found here. For us, it is 866-421-7141

    +1... Based on this I was able to install and have a working setup (without using the refereed winetricks office2013pro). Created a 32-bit prefix. Then after winetricks corefonts tahoma riched20 msxml6 and HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareWineDirect3D trick, installed using own medium. Even updated to SP1 and installed additional language packs. Everything I've used working properly so far...

  • @Kanchu - very helpful to me, who thought that the black screen problem will not appear during this solution. In order to put it all together, I have summed up all steps in this answer here: askubuntu.com/a/1085219/47206

Okay friends! Here's my answer!



This question was originally asked in 2017-02-03. In 2018-02-17 we already have newer versions of wine.



I posted this answer because I believe it is a solution accessible to more people.



Below is a script for use with PlayOnLinux ( https://www.playonlinux.com/en/ ). It was based on a script created originally by Quentin Pâris (thanks guy! =D ).



To do the installation we need the following resources: wine, winetricks, winbind and playonlinux.



NOTE: winetricks and winbind are usually installed along with wine. To test if they are present use the commands winetricks -V and wbinfo -V respectively!



With contributions from @Naheel and @Philippe .





TO USE THE SCRIPT:



Save the script below to a text file (eg: office2013.bash).



Start PlayOnLinux, open the script file above...



Open the script file.



... , run it...



Run script file.



... and follow the on-screen instructions.

    You are installing msxml6 msftedit riched30 vb6run. Can comment on why? On the winhq site there is a lot of discussion about those packages but I can not reproduce why they are needed. I am putting together some refs to bring clarity to the installation procedure. On my end, only really needed was riched20. I can not understand the edits by Questor for setting Wine-Version to 3.2 during installation and to 2.22 afterwards. For me, installation went fine on wine-2.0. and wine-3.0.

    ok. so i checked the bugreports on winhq. You only need msxml6 in some wine versions prior to a bugfix in libxml2.

  • @ukos About "I can not understand the edits by Questor for setting Wine to Version 3.2 during installation and to 2.22 afterwards", this was done because wine version "2.22" fails with the installer and version "3.2" fails with Office applications. This is what happens on my environment (Linux Manjaro). What specific version did you use of "wine" "3"? Thanks!

    – Eduardo Lucio
    Feb 19 '18 at 13:13

    First, install wine 2.1 (might als work with 2.0 'winehq-staging')



    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wine/wine-builds
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-devel


    Install 'winbind'



    sudo apt install winbind


    Create Clean 32bit Prefix for Win7



    Crete a clean 32 bit prefix and start up winecfg:



    WINEPREFIX=~/.wine/Office2013 WINEARCH=win32 winecfg


    In the winecfg applications tab select "Windows version: Windows 7"
    Close wine config and install winetricks



    Install Libraries



    sudo apt install winetricks


    Then start winetricks for your prefix



    WINEPREFIX=~/.wine/Office2013 WINEARCH=win32 winetricks


    accept "select the default wineprefix" with OK.
    Now, select "Install Windows DLL components" and go and install msxml6



    I also installed the cambria font, but that shouldn't matter.



    Don't close winetricks just yet, you most likely want to fix the black screen bug.



    Fix Black Window



    In order to fix the black window that impedes Office 13 to be used, add the HKCUSoftwareWineDirect3DMaxVersionGL new DWORD value 30002 (hexa) to the registry.



    Here's how to do this:
    In Winetricks select Run regedit and wait for the Registry Editor window to open.
    In the folder tree expand HKEY_CURRENT_USER - Software - Wine and create a new key in the Wine folder. To do so, right click, select new-->key and name it Direct3D. Now create new-->DWORD Value, rename the file to MaxVersionGL and set the value data to 30002 (hexadecimal).
    Close the Registry Editor window.



    It should look like this:
    Registry Editor Entries
    Close the Registry Editor window.



    Close the winetricks window and run installer:



    Install Office 2013



    WINEPREFIX=~/.wine/Office2013 WINEARCH=win32 wine ~/PathTo/Office2013Setup.x86.exe


    From here, the install runs and completes 100%.



    Open one of the Office programs of your choice. They mostly work, but I found that the Word Math Typesetting does not work and Power Point may not start as well due to "not enough memory or system resources". So, still room for improvement.

    Install Office 2013 pro 32bit



    This solution is tested on Ubuntu 17.10 with wine 2.0.2.



    Required Dependencies



    We need a clean 32bit wine prefix and some packages.



    sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install cabextract fonts-liberation winbind wine wine32 wine-gecko2.21




    • 32bit wine installation


    • winbind for some samba functions


    • geckofor internet content popups


    • cabextract and wget for downloading corefonts through winetricks


    • fonts-liberation for the free alternatives to Arial etc.




    Note that I also recommend wine-3.0 due to its DirectX11 Support. To install, use



    wget https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key
    sudo apt-key add Release.key
    sudo apt-add-repository 'https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/'

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install wine-stable winehq-stable


    Installation Process



    The recipie is now upstream on winetricks. We need a clean 32bit prefix for it. If you do not have one, prepend WINEPREFIX="${HOME}/.wine-office2013pro" to the wine commands.



    First get the newest winetricks:



    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Winetricks/winetricks/master/src/winetricks -O ~/Downloads/winetricks
    chmod u+x ~/Downloads/winetricks


    and then use the recipie on a 32bit wine prefix.



    WINEARCH=win32 wine wineboot
    ~/Downloads/winetricks office2013pro


    msxml6 is installed due to an incompatibility of libxml.the setup is straight forward.



    First start



    The installed desktop files are located in



    ~/.local/share/applications/wine/Programs/Microsoft Office 2013


    welcome messagepowerpoint



    There should be a welcome messages that connects to the internet (only on wine-3.0) and lets you activate the product.




    • Microsoft Word 2013 will start fine. Although, there are certainly some bugs in it.


    • Microsoft PowerPoint 2013 has some unresolved issues like the black slides. Sometimes it also refuses to start at first. If so, do not press reboot when asked, as it will exit wine.



    do not press reboot in powerpoint



    Product Activaton



    On wine-3.0 activation is possible over the internet.



    On wine-2.0the product can be activated via telephone. The phone number is found here. For us, it is 866-421-7141

    Install Office 2013 pro 32bit



    This solution is tested on Ubuntu 17.10 with wine 2.0.2.



    Required Dependencies



    We need a clean 32bit wine prefix and some packages.



    sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install cabextract fonts-liberation winbind wine wine32 wine-gecko2.21




    • 32bit wine installation


    • winbind for some samba functions


    • geckofor internet content popups


    • cabextract and wget for downloading corefonts through winetricks


    • fonts-liberation for the free alternatives to Arial etc.




    Note that I also recommend wine-3.0 due to its DirectX11 Support. To install, use



    wget https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key
    sudo apt-key add Release.key
    sudo apt-add-repository 'https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/'

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install wine-stable winehq-stable


    Installation Process



    The recipie is now upstream on winetricks. We need a clean 32bit prefix for it. If you do not have one, prepend WINEPREFIX="${HOME}/.wine-office2013pro" to the wine commands.



    First get the newest winetricks:



    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Winetricks/winetricks/master/src/winetricks -O ~/Downloads/winetricks
    chmod u+x ~/Downloads/winetricks


    and then use the recipie on a 32bit wine prefix.



    WINEARCH=win32 wine wineboot
    ~/Downloads/winetricks office2013pro


    msxml6 is installed due to an incompatibility of libxml.the setup is straight forward.



    First start



    The installed desktop files are located in



    ~/.local/share/applications/wine/Programs/Microsoft Office 2013


    welcome messagepowerpoint



    There should be a welcome messages that connects to the internet (only on wine-3.0) and lets you activate the product.




    • Microsoft Word 2013 will start fine. Although, there are certainly some bugs in it.


    • Microsoft PowerPoint 2013 has some unresolved issues like the black slides. Sometimes it also refuses to start at first. If so, do not press reboot when asked, as it will exit wine.



    do not press reboot in powerpoint



    Product Activaton



    On wine-3.0 activation is possible over the internet.



    On wine-2.0the product can be activated via telephone. The phone number is found here. For us, it is 866-421-7141

Then after winetricks corefonts tahoma riched20 msxml6 and HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareWineDirect3D trick, installed using own medium. Even updated to SP1 and installed additional language packs.

    Okay friends! Here's my answer!



    This question was originally asked in 2017-02-03. In 2018-02-17 we already have newer versions of wine.



    I posted this answer because I believe it is a solution accessible to more people.



    Below is a script for use with PlayOnLinux ( https://www.playonlinux.com/en/ ). It was based on a script created originally by Quentin Pâris (thanks guy! =D ).



    To do the installation we need the following resources: wine, winetricks, winbind and playonlinux.



    NOTE: winetricks and winbind are usually installed along with wine. To test if they are present use the commands winetricks -V and wbinfo -V respectively!



    With contributions from @Naheel and @Philippe .





    TO USE THE SCRIPT:



    Save the script below to a text file (eg: office2013.bash).



    Start PlayOnLinux, open the script file above...



    Open the script file.



    ... , run it...



    Run script file.



    ... and follow the on-screen instructions.

      You are installing msxml6 msftedit riched30 vb6run. Can comment on why? On the winhq site there is a lot of discussion about those packages but I can not reproduce why they are needed. I am putting together some refs to bring clarity to the installation procedure. On my end, only really needed was riched20. I can not understand the edits by Questor for setting Wine-Version to 3.2 during installation and to 2.22 afterwards. For me, installation went fine on wine-2.0. and wine-3.0.

      ok. so i checked the bugreports on winhq. You only need msxml6 in some wine versions prior to a bugfix in libxml2.

    • @ukos About "I can not understand the edits by Questor for setting Wine to Version 3.2 during installation and to 2.22 afterwards", this was done because wine version "2.22" fails with the installer and version "3.2" fails with Office applications. This is what happens on my environment (Linux Manjaro). What specific version did you use of "wine" "3"? Thanks!

      You are installing msxml6 msftedit riched30 vb6run. Can comment on why? On the winhq site there is a lot of discussion about those packages but I can not reproduce why they are needed. I am putting together some refs to bring clarity to the installation procedure. On my end, only really needed was riched20. I can not understand the edits by Questor for setting Wine-Version to 3.2 during installation and to 2.22 afterwards. For me, installation went fine on wine-2.0. and wine-3.0.

      ok. so i checked the bugreports on winhq. You only need msxml6 in some wine versions prior to a bugfix in libxml2.

    • @ukos About "I can not understand the edits by Questor for setting Wine to Version 3.2 during installation and to 2.22 afterwards", this was done because wine version "2.22" fails with the installer and version "3.2" fails with Office applications. This is what happens on my environment (Linux Manjaro). What specific version did you use of "wine" "3"? Thanks!

    • @ukos "You only need msxml6 in some wine versions prior to a bugfix in libxml2" -> Which wine version specifically? Tell me the wine version so I can do the tests.

      That is an unresolved bug (Pretty annoying, too)

    Okay friends! Here's my answer!



    This question was originally asked in 2017-02-03. In 2018-02-17 we already have newer versions of wine.



    I posted this answer because I believe it is a solution accessible to more people.



    Below is a script for use with PlayOnLinux ( https://www.playonlinux.com/en/ ). It was based on a script created originally by Quentin Pâris (thanks guy! =D ).



    To do the installation we need the following resources: wine, winetricks, winbind and playonlinux.



    NOTE: winetricks and winbind are usually installed along with wine. To test if they are present use the commands winetricks -V and wbinfo -V respectively!



    With contributions from @Naheel and @Philippe .





    TO USE THE SCRIPT:



    Save the script below to a text file (eg: office2013.bash).



    Start PlayOnLinux, open the script file above...



    Open the script file.



    ... , run it...



    Run script file.



    ... and follow the on-screen instructions.

      You are installing msxml6 msftedit riched30 vb6run. Can comment on why? On the winhq site there is a lot of discussion about those packages but I can not reproduce why they are needed. I am putting together some refs to bring clarity to the installation procedure. On my end, only really needed was riched20. I can not understand the edits by Questor for setting Wine-Version to 3.2 during installation and to 2.22 afterwards. For me, installation went fine on wine-2.0. and wine-3.0.

      ok. so i checked the bugreports on winhq. You only need msxml6 in some wine versions prior to a bugfix in libxml2.

    • @ukos About "I can not understand the edits by Questor for setting Wine to Version 3.2 during installation and to 2.22 afterwards", this was done because wine version "2.22" fails with the installer and version "3.2" fails with Office applications. This is what happens on my environment (Linux Manjaro). What specific version did you use of "wine" "3"? Thanks!

      That is an unresolved bug (Pretty annoying, too)
