Re: Can't read data_log output file (empty)

I'll be waiting for the update.

I'm also trying to add end-of-flow events, is there any specific file I
could look up to use as a model?
I've already set a passive Inspector to listen to a certain event, but I'm
not sure where I should setup the module responsible for publishing this
end-of-flow event.

http_server (the old one) was deleted so you should stick with the
http_inspect (the new one).  Unfortunately, data_log now needs an update.
We will get you something soon.

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to better understand how to handle events inside Snort++ using
data_log inspector as example. But at the moment, I can't really read the
output file because it's always empty for me.

Until now, I did the following changes to snort.lua:

- Added a new line "data_log = { key = 'http_raw_uri' }
- Changed the "http_inspector = { }" to "http_server = { }"
(As recommended here: http://marc.info/?l=snort-user
s&m=147422221322032&w=2)

And ran the command:

"sudo snort -c /opt/snort/etc/snort/snort.lua -R
/opt/snort/etc/snort/samples.rules -r http.cap -A alert_ex --plugin-path
/opt/snort/lib/snort_extra"

The http.cap I'm using is the one located at
https://wiki.wireshark.org/SampleCaptures

What am I missing here?

Thanks in advance,
Ronin.
