Hi,
CAn you give me more idea where to add "-Lpath-to-the-mysql-library -lmysqlclient"under ./configure? Please advise.
Where do you have the mysql library files installed on your system. Snort requires the mysqlclient.sl library. In the snort-2.3.2 configure file Line no : 6533 you can find a line as " LIBS="-lmysqlclient ${LIBS}" Here, compiler searches for mysqlclient library at /usr/lib. Since you have them installed at some other path, you are getting these errors. So you need to tell explicitly to compiler where they are found . This can be done by exporting the flags as below export LDFLAGS="-L/path/where/mysqlclient/lib/ispresent/" Or simply edit the configure file at 6533 Before: " LIBS="-lmysqlclient ${LIBS}" After:" LIBS="-l/path/of/mysqlclient/in ur machine/ ${LIBS}"
Hope this helps -- Senthil Prabu.S ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: NEC IT Guy Games.
