No log in my Mysql database

Hi,

I'm using Snort with mySql and Acid and i have a problem.

Everything is working well and I have no error message but I have no Data in
my SQL database.

On boot, Snort starts with this command :

/usr/local/bin/snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -i eth0 -D

When i'm testing i kill the process and use :

/usr/local/bin/snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -i eth0 -v

My config file is like this :

output database: log, mysql, user=snort password=bidon dbname=snort
host=localhost (i tested with alert instead of log and it's the same)

When i'm running Snort in verbose mode it display me all packets but it
doesn't log them in my database.
It says no erros and connect well to database and close connection when i
hit Ctrl-C.
But I have Alert : 0, Logged : 0

I really don't understand...

When i run Snort with : /usr/local/bin/snort -l /etc/snort/logs/ (without
loading .cnf file ans in packet logger mode) Snort logs packets in files. (i
have logged = 600 for example)

To resume : packet logger mode : OK / IDS mode : NOT OK !

I saw in discussion groups that lot of people looks to have the same problem
but i don't find any solution ...

Could you help me ?

Thanks

Benoit.
