The forum

I tried to install a statistical software (Prism Graph Pad) in Play on Linux. The installation was fine and opening but while opening a new data table I got the following message

"Opened file may be incomplete. Prism XML data schema file may have been deleted or moved.

Missing file: C:\Program Files\GraphPad\Prism6\Prism6XMLschema.xml

To install Prism6XMLschema.xml you need to reinstall Prism.

Do you want to import the file anyway?"

Is there any workaround to make the program working ??? I desperately need this software to work on Linux

You help is much appreciated

Thanks

 

You should go on configure, then click on install components

roll down until you find "msxml3" then install it and will run ok!

Can you tell me if your fonts are loaded correctly....this is my problem with playonlinux!!! Every font is displayed incorrectly!

Z.

You are right about installing the "msxml" component.

 

About the fonts I suggest you to install the component "corefonts", then after testing try to install the others with "font" in their name.

 

 

I wrote this this script but it does not work (read comments inside).
