CICFLOWMeter does not output anything on directory

[KaranNair97]

Hey there,
I tried running the program by loading a .pcap file and setting an output directory, but no file is generated as an output. I also tried setting the output directory as a .csv file, which gave me no result either. Program Log - "

CICFlowMeter received 1 pcap file

Please help me on how to proceed with this issue, Thanks!

Hey there, according to the winpcap site, the last official WinPcap release was 4.1.3. So you are suggesting to download this and run the process again to get it working?
Because I already have it installed but it is still giving the same error. Please advise.

[RizkyAlmsyah]

yeah i'm using last official and worked

check your logs again maybe you have another problem

Yea I think I do, this is what I see in my log file. Maybe something is wrong with my jnetpcap setup? I am not sure. Pls advise.

This is what I see in the flowmeter. The files are found but they are not being parsed as there is no output.

[RizkyAlmsyah]

Where directory u using? maybe cannot access because directory on admin system.
Or maybe reinstall again

i met the same issue with Ubuntu 20.04 and solve it by follow instruction from #85

Maybe you should check if the service starts up properly. You can use the sc query npf command to check it out. Alternatively, you can uninstall Npcap; WinPcap alone is sufficient.

Hi,
We are pleased to announce that the first version of the Network and Transportation Layers Flow Analyzer (NTLFlowLyzer) is now available as part of the Understanding Cybersecurity Series (UCS) knowledge mobilization program. This Python open-source project has been designed and developed to address many issues encountered with CICFlowMeter. It extracts over 300 features from TCP-based network traffic, tailored explicitly for Anomaly Profiling (AP). NTLFlowLyzer serves as a key component of the upcoming NetFlowLyzer.
