Still not working. The configuration is the default i downloaded from
snort.com. I only changed the HOME_NET and EXTERNAL_NET variables and

You've got a typo on every line!  (see below)

With those fixes I can run either lines 1 and 3 or lines 2 and 3 through
snort -T.

If that doesn't fix it, send your conf.

Is it possible that you have multiple detection statements?

grep detection snort.conf

Hi,
I'm running Snort 2.8.5 on Ubuntu linux and i'm getting this error
when i
start Snort (snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf):

"Detection: Search-Method = AC-BNFA-Q
ERROR: /etc/snort/snort.conf(273) Config option "detection" can only
be
configured once."

I did not change anything near line 273, so i don't know why is this
happening. Can you help me?

Thank you,
Adam Szabo
