Running PGO for Yahoo under Linux?

[mconsidine]

... and the second question.

As noted in another post, I would like to be able to access the PGO database/files on a Linux system.  I have been trying to get the program setup using PlayOnLinux/WINE on a Linux Mint 18.1 (Ubuntu) install.  There appears to be an issue with files related to .NET

Has anyone been able to get PGO to run on Linux in some way/shape/form?

Thanks again,
Matt

Would it be easier to use the PGO SQLite database with some sort of Database viewer in Linux?

There is a Linux version of SQLite Studio (which I use on a PC)

Hi Wilson,

Thanks for the reply.  I think what you describe is the way to go.  I provide some feedback once I get that set up.

Now onto your other reply ...

Wilson,
I got SQLiteStudio installed on Linux but don't see how id
pull a .Sql dump file in set up a database to browse.

I know this isn't an saline forum, but could you give me a brief outline of how you use it to view pho Sal dump files?

Many thanks for the steps or a pointer to a tutorial.  Google is not helping me.

You don't need to do a dump.

You can view the PGO SQLite database directly.

The SQLite database with the messages is ygroups.db3

It will be in the PGO install folder which is :

C:/Users/<your_user_name>/Appdata/Local/PG Offline 4/

Once located you can start SQLite Studio and choose Database--> Add a Database.

You are presented with a dialogue which will let you browse to the PGO database and add it to SQLite Studio.

After that you can use the tools in SQLite Studio to browse the database.

Cheers,

Wilson.
