Subject: [Wireshark-dev] Problems building installer on Windows 8

 

Hi,

 

I have downloaded the latest code for wireshark to build on a Windows 8 (64 bit) machine.

I am building an x86 version and  can build all stages up to

nmake –f Makefile.nmake packaging

At this point it fails with an error:

Internal Compiler Error: Installers shell constants are different than uninstallers

Fatal error U1077:  makensis.exe

 

Any ideas why this step is failing?
