[Winpcap-users] pcap_open_offline returns "bad dump file

[Narayanasamy, Raja M]

Thanks Guy Harris. That worked. I converted to pcap file using editcap
tool and now my application is able to parse. 


Warm Regards
Raja

Then it's *not* a pcap file, and libpcap/WinPcap can't read it.

You could try saving it from Ethereal in pcap format, or use editcap to 
translate it to pcap format:

	editcap -F libpcap {input file name} {output file name}

and then try to read the pcap file.
