RE: JPGRAPH/ACID/$ChartLib_path ????

I think that the problem you are having is that your httpd isn't parsing
the php pages right.  I'm not too familiar with ACID yet, but if it runs
on the default Apache, then you might have a version conflict.  If
you're running Apache 2.0 or later, there are known compatibility issues
with php4.  Every recommendation I have seen is to downgrade to Apache
1.3 and then install php4.  I would imagine that things should do better
then.  I haven't actually tried this to solve the problem, but I have
experienced the same problem with other php stuff (i.e. forums).
 
Good luck.

Subject: [Snort-users] JPGRAPH/ACID/$ChartLib_path ????
 
Folks,
 
I'm at a loss here. I have installed ACID, Snort, MySQL, JPGraph etc.,
etc., and all necessary files necessary for me to view graphs within my
ACID console. 
 
Everything is working fine, with the exception of being able to graph
the alerts in ACID. I have followed all the documentation to no avail
yet. According to what I have read, once all necessary and updated
versions of the necessary programs/files are installed all that is
needed is to change the $ChartLib_path to reflect the jpgraph
directories ( $ChartLib_path="../jpgraph/src"; ) in the acid_conf.php
file in the ACID directory.
 
Even though I have done this all I get is ASCII text where the graph is
supposed to show up. Ok, what could I be doing wrong. Supposedly the
jpgraph.php file does not need much, if any, editing. I left the cache
settings at their defaults, which is what looks like the only thing that
would need editing and maybe the path to where GD is supposed to be,
which I also left at its default. 
 
Could anyone shed any light....I'm totally in the dark with this one.
I'm exhausted from searching google and all the archives out there.
 
The help will be gratefully appreciated.
