Worked just fine. 

Thanks in advance.

I’ve inserted the bellow line in snort.conf file and when testing it’s rising fatal error.

        output unified2: filename snort.u2, limit 128, appid_event_type

ERROR:
          
        Log directory = /var/log/snort
        ERROR: Argument Error in /etc/snort/snort.conf(527): appid_event_type
        Fatal Error, Quitting..

It is definitely not the same error. The error in this case is in 

libsf_appid_preproc_la-service_ssl.lo

The previous errors were in different files. This is good because it means the past errors are fixed, hopefully.

This new error is mostly related to the fact that the OpenSSL/libssl packages in Ubuntu 18.04 are of version >=1.1.  
In this case, remove OpenSSL and libssl and downgrade to libssl 1.0.2 via

apt-get install libssl1.0-dev

Or something similar.After that try make again. I guess this happens because OpenAppID relies on SSL libraries/API 
that have changed in the newer version of OpenSSL/libssl. I guess OpenAppID needs to be updated to handle the new 
changes in libssl, simply a guess

Please test this and let us know.

What is the operating system you are trying this on? I faced similar issues with newer Linux distros such as Ubuntu 
18.04.

Try removing all Lua packages installed from the repo, and then install LuaJIT from source as James suggested.

You may face additional issues with AppID and SSL. If you get to that point, please post the error message you get.

Thanks.

Even after installing LuaJit and all other components it’s still failing the same exact error.

OpenAppID on ubuntu for snort 2.9.x requires the additional librarires:

You're missing luajit:

your package manager may have it as well..make sure to install the -dev package as well.
