I've run nmake -f Makefile.nmake setup with out any errors. When I run nmake -f Makefile.nmake check_libs I get: ERROR: The contents of C:\wireshark-win32-libs\current_tag.txt is (unknown). It should be 2011-06-27. Wireshark is ready to build. Then when I run nmake -f Makefile.nmake all I get this error: ERROR: The contents of C:\wireshark-win32-libs\current_tag.txt is (unknown). It should be 2011-06-27. ? Wireshark Libraries not up-to-date ? ? Do you need to run nmake -f Makefile.nmake setup ? NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'exit' : return code '0x1' Stop. I have configured the Config.nmake for my compiler and have followed all the directions. Im trying to build this on windows using visual studio express 2008. asked 11 Dec '11, 17:54  smithc edited 12 Dec '11, 02:44  grahamb ♦ showing 5 of 6 show 1 more comments |
One Answer:
Like the output indicates, you need to run answered 12 Dec '11, 18:32  cmaynard ♦♦ I have the same problem Tried using the "setup" but I get the same output How can I solve this? Thanks, Armando (05 Jan '12, 14:02) avr989 thanks, I just ignored the error and run the setup, then I closed the cmd and opened it again. Then I followed again steps 2.2.6 thru 2.2.8 and everything went just fine. (05 Jan '12, 16:53) avr989 |
Where are your libraries stored? Is it C:\wireshark-win32-libs-1.6 or somewhere else?
yeah, it's in C:\wireshark-win32-libs-1.6. I got Wireshark to compile in WinXP, but I still can't get it to compile in Win7.
There should be a file called current_tag.txt in there. What is its contents?
The contents are 2011-06-27. Thats whats confusing. Maybe its looking somewhere else for current_tag.txt?
You state that your libraries are in "C:\wireshark-win32-libs-1.6" but the error message says the setting for libraries is "C:\wireshark-win32-libs". Which is correct?
@graham: Whoo, why did you have to spill the beans ;)
@smithc: Graham may be onto something here. Are your path settings in config.nmake in order? Or, did you define WIRESHARK_LIB_DIR yourself?
