Snort 2.9.1 pkg v. 2.1.1 Error.
-
Strange is that on snort page it says the old package version not the new one…
It would because the GUI is from pfSense.. Snort doesn't come with a GUI… You have to create the config files by hand... pfSense GUI creates the files for us
-
Yep Snort is looking down in services… And yep it was too soon to cheer :)
-
new issue /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libpcre.so.1" not found, required by "snort" it says in console if you try to use snort command

this is most likely because you installed the snort package from freebsd.org… you have to be very careful when install packages that aren't from files.pfsense.org... you can break your box...
ps snort didn't start because i believe it needs a patch to make it work with pf...

It's my test box so no problem :)

Same issue here as well.

Online again! Thanks!

Yes this should be OK now, I managed to get a new set of binaries built and uploaded. For one reason or another the nightly automated build process (even when run by hand) was not completely building the snort package and related binaries.
-
But now I have another problem…
snort[25261]: FATAL ERROR: ByteExtract variable '^Authorization\x3A\s*Basic[ \t]+' in rule [3:13308] is used before it is defined.
Snort install perfectly, but not work…

Same here:

i'm doing some testing but since snort was updated to 2.9.2.3, the ruleset filename is different:
thinking it should be like this now
/usr/local/pkg/snort/snort_check_for_rule_updates.php
line 43 $snort_filename_md5 = "snortrules-snapshot-2923.tar.gz.md5";
line 44 $snort_filename = "snortrules-snapshot-2923.tar.gz"; -

Strange.. my rules are updated…
SNORT.ORG >>> "b7469cefc799ed158d2a483ed2cf689a"
EMERGINGTHREATS.NET >>> 014686a49ac68a7d90d9be60b5db93bc
PFSENSE.ORG >>> "e8a95fd5f1b40e878fedeffd585134bb" -
Another thing… my Snort Service show: Snort 2.9.1 v. pkg 2.1.1, I will try remove and add again.

PFSENSE.ORG >>> "e8a95fd5f1b40e878fedeffd585134bb"yeah, the rules will update; but did snort start?
Snort 2.9.1 v. pkg 2.1 is hardcoded into the code i believe, it wasn't updated.. only binaries from what i can tell.
P.S line 40 in /usr/usr/local/snort/snort.inc would need to be changed for the version number

Cino,
I try start snort.. but the error is:
snort[15802]: FATAL ERROR: ByteExtract variable '^Authorization\x3A\s*Basic[ \t]+' in rule [3:13308] is used before it is defined.
-
snort[56806]: FATAL ERROR: ByteExtract variable '^Authorization\x3A\s*Basic[ \t]+' in rule [3:13308] is used before it is defined.
Updated to latest ruleset same error.

Using only Emmerging Threads rules…
