I have snort+MySQL+ACID installed and partially working.  Snort is
logging
everything into the database.  The problem is with viewing the alerts.
Yesterday I was able to click on say Unique Alerts and it would show me
the
Alerts.  Now if I click on Unique Alerts: 12, nothing happens.  It knows
about the alerts but it just isn't showing them.  This happens with
everything.  Am I missing something here?

Thanks,

Hi Chris,

Perhaps just make a Shift-Reload on your browser.
If you make a "mysql -u root -p" dirrectly ans query your snort database,
what
are the results ?
Are there any changes before and after the problem ?
It's not very clear your problem, can you give us more details.

I will try to explain it better.
Snort is logging alerts correctly into the database.  The alerts are there
and I can see them.  Acid also can see them.  For example:

Sensors: 1
Unique Alerts: 13  ( 7 categories )
Total Number of Alerts 4822

Source IP addresses: 63
Dest. IP addresses: 5
Unique IP links 64

And so on.  Here is the problem.  When I click on "13" to view the 13 Unique
Alerts, ACID doesn't show anything.  It has the headers and stuff.  It's not
a blank page, but it doesn't show any of the alerts.  I can't drill down
into anything.  I am using Netscape 7.0 if that matters.

Thanks,
Chris Romano

OK, thanks for the description.
Effectively, Netscape7 is a very bad choice . It's my idea. You should use Mozilla. Netscape is finished!!! If it's a PHP problem, you can increase the level of debug in the file "php.ini", section "Error handling and logging". Another important thing, ACID and snort are on the same box or different ones ?
