I am using snort-2.9.4.6 and yes its pointing to right version of snort
because i only hv one snort folder. If wrong snort folder path is given
then  ./setup.sh gives error of snort directory .

Also please note i m able to see the expected output when i type ./test.sh
būt dpx.c file has those errors.  Both these things r happening always . I
have tried fresh installation of everything 3 times .

 What version of Snort are you using?  Are you sure that setup.sh points
to the correct Snort top level directory?

 If you were able to make it before, something has to be broken in your
environment / setup.

  Hello

 Starting over in a new directory did not help. , facing same issues :


i am unable to compile even the original DPX.C file (without any changes )
.

I am afraid how can i make changes in dpx.c if the original file has so
many errors.
*NOTE: With all these errors in the dpx.c file,  ./test.sh command runs
fine, seems that DPX.C file has been deliberately left with some errors. *

examples option) : *

Thanks Russ

Here are the answers:

2. Nothing changed from #1, i am successfully running ./test.sh
command, at the same time, unable to compile dpx.c with gcc command.
gives the mentioned errors. That is confusing.

3.  Ok i am starting over in a new directory . Will let you know the
results.

Thanks again

I'm not clear on the issue here:

1.  You configured and ran successfully dpx 1.6 with Snort 2.9.4.6;
good.

2.  You can't compile dxp.c.  With what version?  What changed from #1?

3.  You can run test.sh with the errors from #2?? That means you still
have
an old lib you are running.

You need to start over in a new directory and see what you get.  Also,
what
version is now failing?

Subject: [Snort-devel] Unable to Compile DPX.C (original file) (dpx-1.6
version)

Hello

I am starting new thread, i already successfully configured and ran
DPX-1.6
with snort-2.9.4.6 version. but I am slightly confused , since i am
unable
to compile even the original DPX.C file (without any changes ) .

I am afraid how can i make changes in dpx.c if the original file has so
many
errors.
NOTE: With all these errors in the dpx.c file,  ./test.sh command runs
fine,
seems that DPX.C file has been deliberately left with some errors.

Here is the list of errors, (i have configured snort with enable dynamic
examples option) :
