Hi Josh,
Lua support is disabled by default in 1.2.11-6...
/etc/wireshark/init.lua:
...
-- Lua is disabled by default, comment out the following line to
enable Lua support.
disable_lua = true; do return end;
...
After commenting out the second line hello.lua gets executed:
user@host:~$ tshark -X lua_script:hello.lua
Hello tireless maintainers!
tshark: There are no interfaces on which a capture can be done
Cheers,
Balint
