my understanding is that by default, the snort output logs are in the directory 
/var/log/snort... does this directory exist and have the necessary permissions 
for snort to write the files there?

or maybe you have altered the output directory in your config to point directory 
/var/log and permissions are not allowing it there?

what do your output options look like in your snort.conf?
