[SOLVED] wine doesn't work with cron

Issue

I cannot for the life of me get wine to work with cron. It just straight up doesn't work. I get this error each time:

wine: '/' is not owned by you, refusing to create a configuration directory there

Note, I am running under the correct user (not attempting to run the command as root).

Does anybody know how to fix this?

Additional information, the cron entry looks something like this:

01 01 * * 1-5 username cd /prog/location; ./wineprogram.exe

EDIT2: wineprogram.exe is command line only, it does not pop up any windows, i know the cron user has no x11

Solution

Specify the $WINEPREFIX that would be used as that user.
