Hi Richard,

A couple of weeks ago someone I don't remember who (sorry) explained me that I needed to install mysql-devel also. I 
worked perfectly. And when I compiled I used ./configure --with-mysql

  Subject: [Snort-users] Compiling Snort for MySQL


  All,
   
  I need to recompile snort for use with mysql but I keep getting the same error message when I recompile:
   
  ERROR: Unabel to find mysql headers (mysql.h)
   
  When I installed mysql I installed the mysql RPM.
  I am compiling as so: ./configure --with-mysql=/var/lib/mysql
   
  I have the snort database set up and populated using the contrib file create_mysql. I confirmed the database and the 
tables are present.
   
  All help is greatly appreciated.
   
  Thank you in advance.
   
  Richard
