Hi, Wireshark,

I use wireshark version is 2.0.1 now.

When send a RACH Preamble (msg1), fill length = 0, wireshark appeared: exception occurred.(other mib,sib is ok).

I reference: https://wiki.wireshark.org/MAC-LTE.

need to update code? I always think the issue is my own configuration parameters. I used Windows Installer (64-bit) 2.0.1, OS is windows 7 64bit. How to operate, I get code does not work.

thanks, regards

Please see my updated first reply. The screen capture from the wiki was taken before the exception issue you are seeing was introduced

Wait a few hours and you should have a new Windows 64 bits pre release of Wireshark 2.0.2 here: https://www.wireshark.org/download/automated/win64/

You should take an installer that is v2.0.2rc0-34-g1b4997c or later.
