Found something interesting - VC redist installer was failing to install in Win2000 with an error which related to not having the Windows Installer 3.0 (or 3.1) package installed, which is a requirement for the vc runtime redist.
I'll run up a quick test on a machine that's generating the error and include the installer in the wireshark installer to see if that fixes it. believe the vcredist_x86.exe is failing with something like a 1723 error where a required dll is missing. cheers Scott "Greg Bell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] This is what I get when I try and run my wireshark build on Windows 2000. It works fine on Windows XP and 2003. My build is based off the 0.99.6 release source. One thing I noticed was that when trying to install the Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable (during the Wireshark install), it gave a "Error 1723. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package...". Is there any compatibility issues with this and Windows 2000? Someone had this problem before, but it seems no solution was found: [Wireshark-dev] Error: wireshark.exe is not a valied Win32 application http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev/200706/msg00123.html Also, the Windows 2000 "problems to avoid" in http://wiki.wireshark.org/BuildingAndInstalling I don't understand. I'm using Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition, Platform SDK Server 2003 R2, and C-Runtime redistributable for Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition (vcredist_x86.exe) for the installer. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks! Greg Looking for a deal? Find great prices on flights and hotels with Yahoo!
