Hello,

 

Found a problem in latest wiresharks, version 1.6.1 onwards. Version 1.7.1  cannot convert 6LowPan IP traffic packets into pdml file. Using version 1.5.0 (I used wireshark-win32-1.5.0-Gridmerge-35104-20101202) and before works fine.

I have a saved pcap file, if opened with wireshark 1.5.0 and before versions, I can export file into pdml. But with version 1.7.0, it cannot export. This is easily reproducible and I’m going to file the bug with the pcap file.

 

Using wireshark GUI to export to pdml file:

 

 

Using tshark:

 

 

Wireshark version used:

 

Version 1.7.0-OFLYNN-1
