I don't think I'm alone when I say you have been the first in a long
time to end up on my ignore list. You have exhibited all the qualities
of a troll, well executed even. I'm fairly comfortable in recommending
to others that they place you into the same category.

I wish you luck on your journey but have to elect to no take part in
you getting where ever you think you are going.

It's a very strange bug.  It only exists on your system.

We've been using base for as long as it's existed, and our copy has never
had that bug.

Step 5: Verify that base can login to the db and read the alerts
its working - but when i clear the data tables on base browser gui, no
new data is being recorded.

OK.  Base does nothing more than to display what's in the database.  So,
if  you empty the tables of data and no new data shows up, base is doing
its  job.  The problem lies elsewhere.

i noticed that if i restart the services, or
restart apache2, it will start displaying again... kinda odd, i would
have to restart anything,, wonders if base is really the right solution
at this point, or, maybe there is a switch to flick in it

In order to do fruitful troubleshooting, you have to take one step at a
time.  Restart one service.  Does base start displaying alerts again?
Then  that service is the problem.  If you restart several services and
base  starts displaying alerts again, you have no way of knowing which
service is  the problem.

Your problem sounds like one that used to occur with barnyard2 - lost
connections to the database - but it's hard to tell without knowing
which  service restarts the alerts.

Look at the timestamps and sizes on the snort logs.  Is it continually
logging?  When the log files turn over, does the new one grow in size?
