Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] Troubles to compile version from sources (Win)

[De Salvador Luca <Luca.DeSalvador@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would like to add a small dissector for some debugging, despite my little
knowledge of compiling under Windows environment.

I have followed those good instructions in README.win32
I compile with MS Visual C++ Version 6 (althought I have MSVC .NET on this
machine as well, but instructions and licensing do not allow it).

As a first step, I tried to compile sources with no modifications.

I have downloaded all necessary packages through wget  ("nmake -f
makefile.nmake setup" command). I have Perl and Pyton installed too.
It seems to compile and link properly (I obtain all .exe files).
At the end of building procedure (building html manual?), I see this output
on screen:

 tethereal.exe -G | perl doc\dfilter2pod.pl doc\ethereal-filter.pod.template
> doc\ethereal-filter.pod

and then in a second I get this error in a separate window:
      Application failed to initialize (0xc0000022)
 

Then if I try to run these binaries:
 ethereal.exe
 ethereal-gtk2.exe
 tethereal.exe
I get the same error.

I have found nothing through searching in previous posts or FAQs.
Do you have any suggestion to fix it?


Thank you for your help and time!
