Hi,

Scenario:

I have a stored .pcap file of Wireshark.

i am converting .pcap file into a text file using tshark in linux environment (fedora 9)and storing it with all information extracted from the .pcap file by using following command

tshark -nr /root/scripts/Test_id.pcap -T text -V > /root/Desktop/test.txt


but getting following exception while converting:

Unhandled exception ("proto.c:46 65: failed assertion "DISSECTOR_ASSE RT_NOT_REACHED" ", group=1, code=4)
Aborted


and process of conversion Aborted .what to do?
Thanks

The examples I've found use -V and -r

tshark -V -r capture.pcacp > capture_to_text.txt

Did adding the -r work for you?

I have tried that also but same problem persists.

Interesting. Have you tried updating your system, or whatever is calling proto.c ?

I can't find anything on that error, I can't recreate it - sorry!
