Hi there,
I am running Snort 1.8.6 and using mysql as the database
 
However I am getting the following error when trying to run snort:
 
"mysql support is not compiled in this copy"
 
mysql is installed properly, tables have been created successfully, a user
(snort) with full access to the database has been created
 
The following entry has been put in the snort.conf file:
 
output database: alert, mysql, user=snort dbname=snort password=password
host=localhost
 
However the same thing works with snort-1.8.3
 
Thanks for your help,
Byas
