Hi all,
I am not able to save the capture file.
 First I open wiresahrk with the root password.
And after i capture,
1) I give the filter as "http  && tcp.port eq 80"  
2) While saving  I click on the  "Displayed"
3) I save  the file on desktop
This I am doing in linux.
How ever even thogh the files gets saved on the desktop,
i cant still open the file. I get the error message as " couldn't display /home/prashanth/desktop/file123.
Please help with what may be wrong in this scenario and what actually is the way to save the file.
Regards,
Prashanth
