I think that Demetri meant the user created within the DB does not have
all of the permissions to access/change/delete what it needs.  Not
the *NIX user/username.

Yes I got that.  I've checked permissions, every removed the database and
recreated it as my "snort" user, doublechecked permissions, even inserted
manually into the database using psql.  Yet initialization of snort still
fails with the same error on the sensor_id insert.  Am i right to think that
the permissions are ok if i can insert using psql as my "snort" user?  I've
done this many many times with mysql so I understand where permissions could
be a problem.  This does not seem to be the case here.

Ok, that sounds good.  The only other thing I can think of is that with
ACID you need to "initialize" the database through the ACID front end for
the first time.  You haven't mentioned ACID yet but the create_postgresql
is definitely connected with the ACID project.

If you haven't configured ACID yet, there is still some work to do.
Follow Roman's howto on snort.org.

HTH.
