Hello

 

If anyone is facing the issue of not being able to locate unistd.h file in scanner.c file , just copy a blank unistd.h file in

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\include\sys

Directory. No need of changing anything in the fparticular file as that file is being automatically generated in build process and everytime

You make distclean the same problem will be reproduced during the build process

 

Thanks

Hemant

Hi

 

One more thing If I launch the application from C:\wireshark-1.0.0\wireshark-gtk1 or  C:\wireshark-1.0.0\wireshark-gtk12 it works fine but not from C:\wireshark-1.0.0\ which is the root directory and where I actually expected the application to be  correctly build.

Can you please shed light on this aspect ?

 

Thanks in advance

Hemant

Hi

 

Thanks!! for the input. Actually c:> utils executables were being utilized rather that cygwins so I removed the utils paths setting in Path variable.

Also I removed the include Unistd.h file statement in scanner.c as it was giving error, I believe it is not required on Win32 platform.

So finally after all this It worked and I was able to successfully build the wireshark exe in wireshark1.0.0. folder.

 

But now on launching the application it says that it is unable to locate wiretap-0.3.1.dll though it is present in the following locations:--

 

C:\wireshark-1.0.0\wiretap

C:\wireshark-1.0.0\wireshark-gtk1

C:\wireshark-1.0.0\wireshark-gtk2

 

Can you please tell what I need to do to overcome this?

 

Thanks

Hemant

Hi,

 

Looks like you'll need to update your cygwin installation.

 

Thanx,

Jaap

Hello

 

I tried to delete and setup again but it again fails with the same message.

So I downloaded all the required libraries from the link http://anonsvn.wireshark.org/wireshark-win32-libs/tags/2008-03-17/packages/

and instead of doing setup I went for the build with the command

 

nmake -f makefile.nmake setup

 

but now it fails stating the following:----

 

 

Wireshark is ready to build.

c:\util\gnu\bin\touch.EXE: unrecognized option `--reference=Makefile.nmake'

Usage: c:\util\gnu\bin\touch.EXE [-acfm] [-r reference-file] [-t MMDDhhmm[[CC]YY

][.ss]]

       [-d time] [--time={atime,access,use,mtime,modify}] [--date=time]

       [--file=reference-file] [--no-create] [--help] [--version] file...

NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'c:\util\gnu\bin\touch.EXE' : return code '0x1'

Stop.

 

 

I don’t know why touch.exe in util/gnu fails to recognize the –reference option. It says

It identifies –r or –file option , so I want to know where should I make change in one of the build files

so that  touch.exe is able to recognize and build process can move ahead.

 

Can you please shed some light on this issue?

 

Thanks in advance

Hi,

 

Seems like a budged download. Can you open the zipfile by yourself? Otherwise just delete it and setup again.

 

Thanx,

Jaap

Hello all

 

I am a new user of Wireshark1.0.0 and an setting up my build environment on WindowsXP.  I  have followed the instructions as mentioned in the Developer user guide

and everything was working fine until I encountered this problem.

When I run the command

 

nmake -f makefile.nmake setup

 

it results in the following error after it has unpacked a lot of package.

 

 

****** user-guide-24665.zip ******

No HTTP proxy specified (http_proxy and HTTP_PROXY are empty).

The problem is related to unpacking if user-guide zipped package and before I can do anything the build fails and the remaining zipped package

Necessary for compile while using the command “nmake -f makefile.nmake all “  are not downloaded and intalled.

 

Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance
