Re: Trouble in the Barnyard

the output you show from ./configure looks correct (the line that
shows "*checking
for mysql... yes*" is what you're looking for).

after you run: ./configure --with-mysql --with-mysql-libraries=/usr/
lib/i386-linux-gnu (note you don't need to run this as sudo), are you
running *make* and then *sudo make install*?

I would try moving the current barnyard2 binary (navigate to the banryard2
folder, then run *sudo mv barnyard2 barnyard2.bak)* to ensure you're
working with the newly compiled barnyard2, and try these steps to
configure, compile, and install barnyard2:

cd ~/Downloads/Barnyard2/barnyard2-master
./configure --with-mysql --with-mysql-libraries=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu
make
sudo make install

ensure there are *no* errors during the *make* stage or the *sudo make
install* stage. When done with these steps, you should be able to run
barnyard2. if it doesn't run, then there is an issue with your
configuration / build.

I’ve been attempting to install Barnyard2 for a while and seem to be
stuck.  I’ve tried to research the problem but haven’t found a solution,
although the problem seems to have been reported on a number of different
sites including this one.  The problem is that I get the following error
when I attempt to run Barnyard2:



*‘ERROR database: 'mysql' support is not compiled into this build of
barnyard2’*



The info below provides more on what I have done, and the results of some
of the commands.    As indicated, I’ve tried numerous variations on the
configuration of Barnyard2 and nothing seems to work up to this point.
Snort however appears to be working fine and is able to write data to the
U2 files.



Snort works fine and writes data to the u2 file.  MySQL appears to be set
up correctly  however Barnyard fails as soon as I run it, each time with
the same error.

I am working with the following:

·         Linux Mint ver 18 32bit

·         MySql ver 5.7.16-0ubuntu0.16.04.1

·         Snort ver 2.9.7.0-5

·         Barnyard2 ver 2.1.14 Build 339



Hopefully someone can see something in the information below that would
make sense.  I would appreciate any help.







Below is the output from my attempt to run Barnyard2

ERROR: If this build of barnyard2 was obtained as a binary distribution

If this build of barnyard2 was compiled by you, then re-run the

the ./configure script using the '--with-mysql' switch.

For non-standard installations of a database, the '--with-mysql=DIR'

syntax may need to be used to specify the base directory of the DB install.
