Cannot install using Winebottler, error 'prefix creation exited with error'

Need help! Frustrated! I am new with mac and I am trying to install Cubase 5 using Winebottler. This program runs well on my PC, but since I moved to mac, I want to install it. I was trying to do that using Winebottler, but it keeps saying "Prefix reation exited with error" and "you find a logfile to help with debugging on your desktop". Please help! Any info is appreciated! Thank you!
It shows me following:

Apparently there is a version for Snow Leopard. Not sure if it will work with your newer version of Snow Leopard, but you can contact them and ask.
