how do I know what the problem is?

I've installed a program through CrossOver, and when I go to launch it the icon appears at the bottom of the screen for a few seconds then disappears. How do I find out why it is doing that? I'd like to know what error to attempt to correct. :)

  1. In CrossOver, choose "programs", "run command" from the menu bar.

  2. Select the appropriate bottle.

  3. Press "browse", then select the problematic programme.

  4. Tick (check) "create log file".

  5. Press "run", then specify where to save the log file.

Thanks for responding so quick! When I try to do this it says it "returned 53" and no log file appears.

edit: Not requesting advice on that error, I'll go through the proper channels for that, but thank you for your help.
