Hi all,

SVN 32686
I get the same error (column-utils.c:879:???) running TShark on:
64-bit Windows 7, build 7600
64-bit Windows Server 2008 R2, build 7600


SVN 32692 and higher (the latest version I tried is SVN-32727):
Unable to capture with Wireshark and TShark, because "The capture session
could not be initiated ()" on:
64-bit Windows 7, build 7600
64-bit Windows Server 2008 R2, build 7600
Windows XP Service Pack 3, build 2600

$ tshark -D
1. \Device\NPF_{E859D76E-155B-4512-ACB6-B1B2A07914DB} (Intel(R) PRO/1000
MT Network Connection)

$ tshark -i 1
Capturing on Intel(R) PRO/1000 MT Network Connection
tshark: The capture session could not be initiated ().

Please check that "\Device\NPF_{E859D76E-155B-4512-ACB6-B1B2A07914DB}" is
the proper interface.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Subject: [Wireshark-dev] tshark (Windows) not working

Hi All,

I can't get tshark to work anymore. I get this error:
E:\wireshark-src\wireshark-gtk2>tshark -i 2
Capturing on Intel(R) 82567LM Gigabit Network Connection
**
ERROR:column-utils.c:879:???: code should not be reached

E:\wireshark-src\wireshark-gtk2>

It seems to be related to the changes related to the timestamps which Stig
has been working on. Is anyone else facing issues?

I am on revision 32686.

Thanks,
Abhik.
