I'm using last version of metatrader 5 (just updated to build 4040) and I'm using it on Linux (Mint 21.2 Cinnamon) with Wine 8.
The function available under menu View -> Report doesn't work, I get a white page.
Also with the previous build.
Missing some Wine plugin or doesn't work with Linux?

Have you installed Microsoft Edge on that Windows Server 2019 setup?
The WebView2 components are dependant on the Microsoft Edge engine.

Since both your cases seem to be related to Windows Server, it could be that the WebView2 components are also dependant on some other functionality that is not installed by default compared to desktop versions of Windows.
So, I would recommend you manually install the Microsoft Edge WebView2 runtime directly and see if that helps.
Thanks for getting me on the right path.
These are the steps I took to Fix the issue:
1- I configured wine for Windows Version 7 with the command "env WINEPREFIX="[YOUR WINE INSTALL PATH]" winecfg" (check the right WINEPREFIX path to your wine install)
2 - Download the Microsoft Edge package from https://www.microsoft.com/it-it/edge/download?form=MA13FJ If can not install only the Webview2 package
3 - Install the Microsoft Edge package with the command "env WINEPREFIX="[YOUR WINE INSTALL PATH]" wine MicrosoftEdgeSetup.exe"
4 - Restart Metatrader
- Free trading apps
- Over 8,000 signals for copying
