Could some pls tell me if it is possible to start wireshark 1.7 ( dev version ) from command line with multiple interfaces specified ? I could start a capture from a single interface from command line but not multiple interfaces. I tried these but nothing worked For the above wireshark started but displayed some error information for dumpcap that “–t option is invalid.” But i did not specific “-t” in the command line. Some pls tell me what the issue is ?? thanks in advance asked 10 Jan ‘12, 22:47  v j edited 11 Jan ‘12, 00:09  Guy Harris ♦♦ |
One Answer:
Unfortunately, there was a required change made to dumpcap.c after 1.7.0 was released, so you will need to download and build one of the more recent automated sources in order for this to work, or you could manually apply the change to the 1.7.0 dumpcap.c file yourself. answered 11 Jan '12, 11:21  cmaynard ♦♦ edited 11 Jan '12, 11:22 |
To quote Michael Tuexen’s answer when the same question was asked on the wireshark-dev mailing list:
I will ask some additional questions:
Did you build this from source, or is it the 1.7.0 release from the Wireshark download page, or is it one of the automated builds?
If you built it from source, did you modify it?
If you built it from source, are you running it from the build directory or from a
make install?dumpcap -t throws invalid option error.
I built wireshark from source
No I did not modify the code
i am running it from build directory
