Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Missing dumpcap when building 3.1.1

[Tom Bentley <t.j.bentley@xxxxxxxxx>]

Great, that worked and I can now capture, but only when running wireshark under sudo. I tried things like setuid dumpcap root or setgid wireshark (existing group for the distribution version of wireshark I also have installed), but those didn't seem to work. Is there something else I need to be able to run it without sudo?

Thanks!

Have a look at cmake's output. It will say something about libpcap (whether is found or not). If it's found, you can compile dumpcap with ninja/make dumpcap, just to be sure it's compiled. However a straight compilation command should do its job.

Hi,

I downloaded and built wireshark 3.1.1 from the website. When I run/wireshark the gui appears, but there in the "Capture" pane it says "No interfaces found". Furthermore (maybe related, maybe not) I had expected `dumpcap` to be in the run directory, but it's missing). So I'm wondering how I managed to mess up the build and what I need to do to fix it.

Many thanks,

Tom
