Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Build error: NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'sed'

[<Timothy.Cook@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

To begin with,

 

From the output listed it looks like your using a flavor of Visual Studio 2005 (VS 8.0).  It is still recommended to use VS 6.

I have not tried using VS 2005 to build Wireshark.  I know that some developers on the "Wireshark-dev" list have successfully built Wireshark with VS 2005.  I don't remember if there are any special settings for the VS 2005 build.

 

I've kept my VS 6 installed just for Wireshark!!

 

Sorry I can't provide any insight.  Your problem does sound familiar. I know that it's been discussed previously.

 

Tim

Hi there,

I’m trying to build Wireshark on Windows XP. The first time I tried it worked fine, but after that every time I try to build the source I get an error. It’s the same error as Alex Diaconou talked about in http://www.mail-archive.com/wireshark-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg07445.html . You replied in that topic that he should setup his build environment like in the developers guide. I did that the first time already, but the problem occurred. Have you got any idea what will solve my problem?

Thanks in advance,

Joost van Zoest
