Snort MySQL problem

[Neil Fryer <nfryer () marimba com>]

Hi All,

This is on a Mandrake 9.2 box, MySQL was installed from an RPM and is now
being used for a couple of other things as well, now I compile snort-2.1.0
with ./configure --with-mysql, all goes well no errors, same for make, and
make install.
I modify the snort.conf file, and then check the file using:

snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf

And then I get the error :

database: compiled support for ( )
database: configured to use mysql
database: 'mysql' support is not compiled into this build of snort

ERROR: If this build of snort was obtained as a binary distribution (e.g.,
rpm,
or Windows), then check for alternate builds that contains the necessary
'mysql' support.

If this build of snort was compiled by you, then re-run the
the ./configure script using the '--with-mysql' switch.
For non-standard installations of a database, the '--with-mysql=DIR'
syntax may need to be used to specify the base directory of the DB install.

See the database documentation for cursory details (doc/README.database).

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance
Kind Regards,
Neil Fryer
