When I wrote that guide, ADODB 5.19 had just been released, and I was not
able to get it working with BASE. I can't remember what the issue was, and
my integration notes don't say, but I do  remember that I could not get it
working at all.  5.18 worked great, but as soon as you replaced it with
5.19, BASE would not work at all.

This is why my guide recommended sticking with ADODB 5.18.  If a newer
version of ADODB works for you, then that shouldn't be an issue, I just had
issues getting it working.

I'll be releasing a new guide soon for Snort (both on my blog and
submitting a copy to the Snort team for inclusion in the documents section
of the Snort.org website) which replaces BASE with Snorby (working on
Ubuntu 12, 14, and 15).  Base hasn't been updated since 2013, and while the
latest Release of Snorby (version 2.6.2) is also from 2013, there seems to
be some activity for Snorby that it will continue to be updated.

There doesn't seem to be a good stand-alone GUI for Snort (one that has an
active development community and a reliable tool), which is a bit
frustrating.  I'm looking at moving unified2 data into Splunk, but i prefer
to keep my guide referencing open-source software.

I really haven’t seen anything either that points to a problem with 519
in my testing with BASE, but I could be missing something?



It appears that BASE is not compatible with PHP7, at least with my
current testing, as BASE produced several errors when starting up.  I don’t
suspect PHP5 will be at EOL for a very long time.



Maybe *Noah Dietrich* could give us a clue as to what he found regarding
ADOdb?



Thanks…

*Subject:* RE: [Snort-users] ADODB version and BASE



I've been using ADOdb 5.19 with BASE 1.4.5 for at least a year and have
never had any issues. My use of BASE is pretty basic, but I do use the
graphing extensions. I haven't tried the new 5.20 version. I have also held
off on moving to PHP 7 because I haven't seen anything to suggest that
ADOdb works with anything other than 5.x.

Subject: [Snort-users] ADODB version and BASE



I see there is a new update to ADODB (520). I’m pushing out 518a to
clients, and was wondering if anyone has any information about ADODB 519,
0r 520 be compatible with BASE.



I’ve seen a note from Noah Dietrich in his guided install stating
“Download and install ADODB 5.18 (not ADODB 5.19, it is not compatible with
the current version of

BASE)”, and was dated January 2015, so it was a recent statement. There
was no reason given.



Does anyone have a clue as to why, or what we could be seeing as a clue
that ADODB above 518 is not compatible.



Is anyone using ADODB 519, 0r 520 with any luck in unison with the BASE
console software?



Thanks…
