This error message comes from capture_info.c under the case 
WTAP_ERR_CANT_OPEN for the variable err, which is being called from 
capture_info_new_file() in the same source file, which is probably being 
called from wiretap/file_access.c.  There are numerous reasons 
capture_info_new_file would fail and return NULL; take a look at 
wiretap/.file_access.c and see if any of those could be the problem.  My 
first guess would be a file permissions issue.

What does your plug-in do?  If you can build *the same source tree* 
without your plug-in and it works, then look at the plug-in.  Don't 
compare a downloaded version of Wireshark to your local source tree 
minus your plug-in.
