Re: AANVAL or MYSQL question

["Gierczak, Stan" <SGierczak () presencehealth org>]

Sorry, this is where you are losing me, I think.
What I believe the answer is that barnyard2 is being run as a service.  The executable that was created is from the 
install guide at 
http://wiki.aanval.com/wiki/Community:Snort_2.9.2.3_Installation_Guide_for_Ubuntu_12.04,_with_Barnyard2,_Pulledpork,_and_Aanval
Step 12 under the barnyard section.

Do not have a Waldo file.

Below is a snipped of the syslog.

This looks good. What is your barnyard2 command and is it being directed to the unified2 directory? Does that directory 
contain the waldo file?

Ok. Can you reply to my second question?

Did you run this against snortdb:

select * from even limit 5;

What did it return?

What is the db connection string in your barnyard2.conf? (remove private data).

Shouldn't the Database Name point to Anaval's own database(aanvaldb)? From the your previous post there seems lots of 
tables that Aanval depend on.

That was from aanval  configuration/snort module settings.

where are you seeing that? what application are you looking at?

some thoughts:

do you have spaces in the database name?
do you have mixed-case characters in the database name?
what OS is the database running on? some are sensitive to mixed-case filenames...
