Rule set not initializing

["Monkey Boy" <hydra291 () hotmail com>]

Greets, I was once able to get the rule set to initialize and filter a 
binary log through the ruleset. I did this by
involing snort from within the rule directory. I then installed snort 1.9.1 
and attempted to do the same. I got
the error unable to initialize rule, rules not found /root/. and so on.
I then went into the snort.conf and changed the var RULE_PATH ./   To where 
the rules were in my drive ie:
/home/don/snort-1.9.1/rules and tried to run it again with the same error, 
--> unable to initialize rules....
If someone could point out where I am going wrong it would be most 
appreciated. The binary file is fine as snort
will process it.
Cheers!
Don
