Hi, Latest Wireshark 2 initialization hangs if my personal preference file "decode_as_entries" has following line: decode_as_entry: ethertype,16400,(none),IPv4 Wireshark 2 initialization hangs at phase "Loading module preferences". Error: Unhandled exception at 0x01285EE9 in Wireshark.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000000. change_dissector_if_matched(gpointer item, gpointer user_data) { ... if (strcmp(lookup->dissector_short_name, dissector_handle_get_short_name(handle)) == 0) { Where 1st parameter has dissector_short_name "IPv4". This is a fresh re-build w/o any plugin. P.S. WS 1.12 is good with this pref file. Any hints, or maybe a fixed available for this? Thanks, Jack asked 03 Jan '16, 15:16  JackaJack |

Thanks for reporting the issue. I filled bug 11958 and proposed a fix. Edit: patch is now merged, it will be available soon in the nightly builds. answered 04 Jan '16, 06:30  Pascal Quantin edited 04 Jan '16, 12:40 |
There's been some recent changes for the Decode As functionality, what version of 2.x are you running? If it's not the latest, please try that first, else if it's the latest, please raise an entry on the Wireshark Bugzilla. answered 03 Jan '16, 16:29  grahamb ♦ edited 03 Jan '16, 16:29 |
