this is difficult to answer if you don't say where the problem
is...

But as far as I remember was there a problem with the database. If
the database runs on the same host as the sensor then it is likely
that snort (or barnyard?) is trying to use the unix domain socket
to communicate with the database. 

Normally SELinux will block this access, you have to permit it.
Or you can try to connect the database via the network socket...

And no, I do not use SELinux...

Best regards
