RE: No mysql support error

["Harper, Patrick" <patrick.harper () phns com>]

Make sure you have the location of the libraries in the ld.so.conf, then run ldconfig

Make sure that is the right location for the mysql files (for the snort ./configure)

How did you install mysql?  Did use RPM, Source, or was it with the OS?

If you downloaded it was it the full source? And if RPM's what RPM's did you install?

Depending on these answers I have seen it say Yes during the configure, and then have this error.

Subject: [Snort-users] No mysql support error

Hello,
I can't seem to get snort to start.  It appears to start, but immediately dies.  I have entered " snort -c 
/etc/snort/snort.conf " and I get to following message:

Database "mysql"   Support is not compiled into this build of snort

I compiled it from source and I used the -with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql flag.  I also see the message "checking for mysql 
...yes" output from .configure.

Does anyone have a clue what could be the problem?  Or if not, are there any other debug tools I could use to track 
this?  Would be nice if snort had a -debug flag so you could see where it fails during startup.

Thanks


John
