that one could be easy, just add /usr/ccs/bin to your PATH and export and off you go! if you do not have ar then you must dig for the appropriate package SUNWtoo i believe -----Original Message----- From: Grejda, Eric [mailto:EGrejda () county allegheny pa us] Sent: Thursday, September 18, 2003 6:50 AM To: Snortty Cc: snort-users () lists sourceforge net Subject: RE: [Snort-users] How to upgrade from Snort 1.9.1 to 2.0.1 Please .... Your problem's right here: #make error reported: r cru libspo.a spo_alert_fast.o spo_alert_full.o spo_alert_smb.o spo_alert_syslog.o spo_alert_unixsock.o spo_csv.o spo_database.o spo_log_null.o spo_log_tcpdump.o spo_unified.o spo_log_ascii.o spo_alert_sf_socket.o make[3]: ar: Command not found ^^ Either you don't have the ar command installed (unlikely seeing as how you mentioned compiling an earlier version of Snort) or it's not in the path of the shell you're building Snort from (more likely). Do a `which ar` to see if you've got it available. If not, figure out where it is and put that directory into $PATH. Looking a bit more closely at your message, the command `r` is being used when it should be `ar`. Was that an error in cutting-and-pasting of your terminal or is that an actual glitch in the Makefile? -- Eric Grejda -----Original Message----- From: Snortty [mailto:cwcwcwg () yahoo com] Sent: Wednesday, September 17, 2003 1:53 PM To: Erek Adams; Snort-users () lists sourceforge net Subject: Re: [Snort-users] How to upgrade from Snort 1.9.1 to 2.0.1 Please.... Erek, Thanks for the prompt reply. Still, not so sure yet about the upgrading steps. I tried (without touching existing working snort 1.9.0) # gzip -d -c snort-2.0.1.tar.gz |tar xvf - # cd snort-2.0.1 #./configure #make error reported: r cru libspo.a spo_alert_fast.o spo_alert_full.o spo_alert_smb.o spo_alert_syslog.o spo_alert_unixsock.o spo_csv.o spo_database.o spo_log_null.o spo_log_tcpdump.o spo_unified.o spo_log_ascii.o spo_alert_sf_socket.o make[3]: ar: Command not found make[3]: *** [libspo.a] Error 127 make[3]: Leaving directory `/root/snortfile/snort-2.0.1/src/output-plugins' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/snortfile/snort-2.0.1/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/snortfile/snort-2.0.1' make: *** [all] Error 2 then. #make install Then, #snort -V still shows Snort Version 1.9.0 is running... Do I need to remove/uninstall the existing 1.9.0 before install 2.0.1? and HOW to uninstall snort if needed in the right way? Thanks a lot in advance.
