Actually its not like that when you are talking wine. HagssFIN first needs to try again, today 4 years later wine has had many changes, its already v5 iirc. Second, he didn't try running it, its simply the installer that was failing. Sometimes people install it in a virtual machine and copy it out to see if wine can run it (recreating registry entries as needed, helps so sniff what the installer is actually doing). Third, if the dev cooperates, he can simply tell what components it uses/expects, ie. what was written with. In the event that this depends in a "service" (daemon), it gets complicated.

An open source solution is always better, for subtle things like these.

PS: The whole point of wine, is being able to run programs "only build for windows Os"...

You could try asking in the Awesome Miner thread to see if anyone is using it with wine and ask what components it needs.
No, it won't work awesomeminer is only build for windows Os except for awesomeminer remote agent for linux.
Read this someone already ask it from here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.17783987

Minerstats is the best option if you are going to monitor them in linux.

I was using Windows 10 and Awesome Miner to monitor my Ant miners, but decided to swap to Linux Mint and run a full NODE. I have tried to run Awesome Miner using WINE with no success. I have Minera running on a Raspberry PI, but it only does reporting for local miners.

Any Thoughts would be Appreciated.

Did you try this? rig-stats

I also know someone using Zabbix with custom scripts for S9s

You can also use a virtual machine, Virtualbox or similar, install a minimal windows to only run your favorite app and nothing else.

To make it work with wine you would need to find out what this program is expecting. Maybe you could get some help from the developer. There are many things in wine that don't work out of the box, but with a simple winetricks command you just add the component its expecting and then it works (ie: .NET, Visual C++, etc).

Since there is no entry for "Awesome Miner" in the wine app database. this means you would need to find out by yourself (and make a new entry). Since this is a paid program ideally it should have a proper Linux port, but i guess there is no demand and Linux users use something else.

Awesomeminer is the one of the best tool to monitor ASIC but the problem they don't support linux OS they have awesomeminer remote agent(Linux) but only support GPU mining rigs.

Check minerstats it seems that they also support Linux OS to monitor your miners online they have free 5 devices to try. This is the only alternative for Awesomeminer.

You can find their official thread from here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/minerstat-mining-monitor-and-management-mining-os-windows-asic-1772780
