Cannot see any interface while running jpcap

Q: I cannot obtain the list of network interfaces or cannot capture any packets. Why?

It may be because you don't have administrative privileges, which are required to run Jpcap-based applications.

On Windows 2000/XP, your account should be in the Administrator group.

On Windows Vista, even if your account is in the administrator group, you still need to use "run as administrator" option. To use the option, right-click the application icon, and choose "run as administrator". If your application is command-line based, you need to open Command Prompt by using "run as administrator" option, and run your application within that Command Prompt.

On Linux/UNIX, you need to become a super user by using 'su' command , or use 'sudo' command to run Jpcap-based applications.

Filter packets through jpcap

//Open an interface with openDevice(NetworkInterface intrface, int snaplen, boolean promics, int to_ms) JpcapCaptor captor=JpcapCaptor.openDevice(devices[index], 65535, false, 20); captor.setFilter("tcp && src port 6000", true); It'll filter all the TCP packets with source port number 6000. So, all we need to do is pass the parameters and use logical and, or operators.

redis server went away

It feels really awkward to see " redis: uncaught exception: Redis server went away " when it was working and suddenly this message bumps up. I faced the same situation while accessing php redis but I guess it's more generic one, more related to redis. So, here are possible solutions that I am able to find and highlighting the one which really did work for me. 1. /usr/sbin/setsebool httpd_can_network_connect=1 By default, SELinux does not allow Apache to make socket connections. So, enable the connection. 2. Try to stop the redis server and restart it again. either of these two should work: a) redis-cli b) redis server 3. There might be issues with switch, try to use different switch.
