I tried rebuilding the RPM with wireshark 1.4.1 and the problem persists. Recompiling with --without-zlib fixes it. Searching for the phrase "File contains a record that's not valid" on the Internet yields more information about this problem. wireshark-1.4.1-2.fc15 with disabled zlib is landing into rawhide soon, I'll update F14 in few days (I'd like to see proper fix though). wireshark-1.4.1-2.fc14 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 14. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/wireshark-1.4.1-2.fc14 I give up, I haven't found any solution other than disabling zlib :(. wireshark-1.4.1-2.fc14 has been pushed to the Fedora 14 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update wireshark'. You can provide feedback for this update here: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/wireshark-1.4.1-2.fc14 wireshark-1.4.1-2.fc14 has been pushed to the Fedora 14 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
With wireshark-1.4.0-2.fc14.x86_64, Wireshark stops capturing packets shortly after I start a simple capture ("port 80" on eth0) and starts printing messages like this repeatedly in the window from which I started it: 13:02:26 Warn Error "File contains a record that's not valid" while reading: "/tmp/wiresharkXXXX14jNPE"
