Crossover on Elementary OS Freya

I was able to download CrossOver fine and everything, but when I try to register it an error comes up saying "registration failed". I'm using CrossOver version 14.1.3. Does anyone know why this is happening?

I am currently using Elementary OS Freya which is just another Linux distro.

Thanks for any help.

EOS does not include gksu as part of the default install, and you are probably running from clicking the icon so you probably aren't seeing the console message that it wants you to run a command as root to register the install.

Or you have network issues. Maybe a missing proxy?

I'm not sure as your error message is a little vague and any events surrounding it have been left unexplained.

Try running crossover from a terminal once and see if there is any helpful output that might say what the issue is.
