RE: Question about MSSQL

["Michael Steele" <michaels () silicondefense com>]

Erek,

 

There were issues with the release version of Snort 1.9.0 and MSSQL. It
did require compiling a new version of Snort from the CVS tree to fix
the problem. If you can possibly wait a few days for the official
release of Snort 1.9.1 then that will fix your problems. If not drop
back to the 1.8.7 (last compiled version) and use that, then update when
1.9.1 is officially released.

Before you update to 1.9.0.... 
I don't think your problems have to do with an outdated version of the
schema. The errors you mention sound like the ones in the binary of
1.9.0, and I'm not aware of anyone who has gotten it to work in this
fashion without editing the source and recompiling. 

I had no such errors with previous versions. Make sure the binaries are
compiled for MSSQL (and not MySQL as well.)

One word:  UPDATE 

1.9.0 [0] is out and 1.9.1 is coming 'real soon now'.  Some of the
errors that you are having are due to your schema being an older
version. You'll need to update your schema to the current version.
Since you're not using it yet, I'd suggest blowing away the DB and
starting over.

Cheers!
