Re: AANVAL or MYSQL question

I got the following(see below).  Aanvaldb was created as part of the install instructions that I followed when aanval 
was installed, snortdb was created as part of the instructions for snort install.  The schema for snortdb was created 
from the barnyard install.  It seems that neither db has any data.  The alert file under eth0 does contain data(see 
below).  It just seems that it is not getting into mysql.  The install instructions that I followed are:

Thanks for your assistance.

How did you setup the database? Was it Aanval or you used the schema file that comes with Barnyard2?

From the command (or your MySQL GUI), login to MySQL:
mysql -u [user] -p
you will be prompted for the password.

type:
show databases;

This should show all of the available database instances. If you know the database name, type:

use [databaseName];
show tables;
select * from [tableName] limit 5;

The above will allow to select the database you specify, enumerate the tables, then query 5 records from a table you 
specify. Look for the "event" table. This is may be different in your case, as I am not familiar with Aanval schema or 
their internal naming conventions.

So,  do I need to be concerned with:
[Description: cid:image001.png@01CF595C.E309FE60]

Also how can I see if the db is getting data into it?

The only error I see is about WALDO.  Not sure if that is an issue or not.

This is a rather warning than error. Barnyard2 will check if the waldo file exists, if it does not, then Barnyard2 will 
warn you about it and create the waldo file for you.

This means that Barnyard2 is up and running and waiting for u2 data to read.

I have just finished installing snort/barnyard/aanval.
I can see that snort is working.  I see messages queuing in the alert file in /var/log/snort/eth0.
Not sure if barnyard is not populating mysql or if aanval is not working.
I got this message in aanval under configuration/snort module settings:
[https://image001.png@01CF5976.5BE8CC30]

I verified that the db is correct as is the user name and password.

I have this in the syslog for when barnyard loads:
