TextAloudMP3.exe: Missing DLLs

[julianvb]

2014-12-07

After I downloaded TextAloud into my Linux Mint 17 computer last night, I ran winecfg and winetricks. I subsequently entered the following command to learn to use wine and immediately saw missing-dll errors on the screen. As I am having a very strange cut-and-paste bug with my computer, I can't post the original screen message without flooding my post with tons of garbage. Listed below are the names of the missing dlls, which I haven't been able to find in my Windows XP computer.

$wine TextAloudMP3.exe

bass.dll, basmix.dll, bassenc.dll, basswma.dll, tamousehook.dll

I can't really help much with the Wine questions, but the dll's you mention are part of the TextAloud install. In a normal install, these dll's are located in the same folder as TextAloudMP3.exe

The old DLL problem has just gone away after I found the DLLs in a directory in Linux Mint 17.

But, if I try to run 'wine TextAloudMP3.exe' from my home directory or from where the DLLs are located, I see new errors. I am showing one error message below and hope some TextAloud users can glean meaningful information from it. I wish I could attach the other longer error messages here.

fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x10ddc68,0x00000000), stub!
err:seh:setup_exception_record stack overflow 1472 bytes in thread 0044 eip 7bc4050f esp 00230d70 stack 0x230000-0x231000-0x330000

Many thanks again.

I tried this myself, I was seeing exactly the same error. TextAloud was also displaying a GDI+ exception, so on a guess, I installed the gdiplus package using winetricks:

$winetricks gdiplus

That solved it for me, I'm able to use Wine to run TextAloud now.

Hi. The easiest way to solve this problem its download missed .dll library file from http://fix4dll.com/msvcr120_dll I had the same problem and solved it in such way. Sure, you'll make it, this is quite easy. Good luck.
