Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] wireshark GUI vs tshark

Jaap and Chris

I am running this on Win XP service pack 2.
I am using wireshark Version 1.2.4 (SVN Rev 30978).

The test.pcap file has been around for a while...so chances are it is not corrupt. It never crashes using the GUI...it just crashes and gives me that pop up when I run it with that tshark command.

This is about all the information that I can provide....unless you can think of something else that you need..??

Thanks,
Brian

Hi Brian,

Thanks for including the error report. It in itself doesn't tell anything,
other than that a problem was detected. That's why Chris asked you some
more questions on the whole situation. Maybe we can help you further when
you look into them.

Thanks,
Jaap

I have attached the error this time....sorry about that. :-)

I get this error when I run with tshark using the following command:

tshark -nr test.pcap ip.dst==x.x.x.x
But when I filter in the GUI ... I have no problems.

Thanks,
Brian

My first thought was, "I guess you forgot to include the error." :)

In addition to the error, you might want to include some Wireshark
version information, what OS you're running on and any other
information
that you think might be relevant.

By the way, I tried a similar tshark command using Wireshark 1.2.4 on
Windows XP SP3 with no problems.  Maybe you are running an older
version
of Wireshark with a known bug that has been fixed, or maybe your
test.pcap file is corrupt or exposes a Wireshark bug, in which case a
bug report might be in order with the attached test.pcap file included
so the core developers can analyze the error and find & fix the bug.

Wiresharkers

When I use my dissector with the GUI... everything works fine. The pcap

file that I load comes right up with NO problems. I can filter (ip.dst==x.x.x.x) with no problems.

But if I try to open that same pcap file with tshark using the
following
command:

tshark -nr test.pcap ip.dst==x.x.x.x
The files appears to start loading.. then I get the following error.

Any thoughts..??

Thanks,
Brian
