Yes,in the snort -2.3.x branch, you will not find the contrib directory. If you need
updated create_mysql file. Then you can download it from the snort CVS at the
following link;

http://cvs.snort.org/viewcvs.cgi/snort/contrib/Attic/create_mysql

Also, you can use the old mysql setup with the 2.3.0. Snort with not complaint
for errors.
