logging to MySql....stumped

Hello,

Now that I've gotten some help in editing configure.in in Barnyard to
work with MySQLServer 4.0....it's up and running and seems to be doing
its job.  It's no longer producing any errors however, it doesn't look
like it's actually logging to ACID.  I've run a few port scans and snort
is picking up the scans and creating alert and log files.  ACID is not
displaying the result however.  Here's my command line and data when
running barnyard:

barnyard -c /usr/local/etc/barnyard.conf -f /var/log/snort/snort.log -s
/usr/local/etc/snort/sid-msg.map -g /
usr/local/etc/snort/gen-msg.map -w /var/log/snort/waldo.log -L
/var/log/snort/barnyard/barnyard.log &

Yes..i know running the database user as root is bad...it will change,
but i really want to get this working.  Anyone else out there have
anything to offer on this problem?
Does ACID post it right away or will it take some time after the scan?
