Ethereal-users: Re: [Ethereal-users] Ethereal crash when opening trace files...
Andre,
I tried to follow the steps you described in your email, but I cannot
reproduce the crash you experience:
- Captured a trace, saved under c:\foo\test
- Quit Ethereal
- Restart Ethereal
- Load trace c:\foo\test
- Save as c:\foo\test.enc as Network Associates Sniffer (dos based)
- Quit Ethereal
- Restart Ethereal
- Load trace c:\foo\test.enc (no problem)
- Load trace c:\foo\test (no problem)
My trace was quite small (about 400 packets)...
Running Windows XP Pro SP2. Ethereal version 0.10.11 (custom build).

Hi,
Since I installed ethereal version 0.10.11 I’m experiencing a strange
behavior and I want to know
if I’m the only one. ( ethereal windows version 0.10.11 running on
Windows XP Pro SP1)
Some would try this and tell me if he is experiencing the same as me ?
1 – Open a trace with Ethereal
2 – Save it as Network Associate (DOS based) format with the same
filename as the opened one but add extension .enc
3 – Try to open any trace in that directory. Ethereal should crash to
windows.
4 – Work around. Copy the trace to another directory and it will open
successfully.
For me it looks like when saving in Network Associate format, this
change some permission or
I don’t know what in the directory that make ethereal to crash.
Please let me know if you experience the same as me or not.
Regards.
