Thanks, this solved my problem. Well actually I kinda FUBAR'ed the database and had to reinstall it, but I simply changed the create_postgresql script instead, and it works fine now. Thanks a bunch :) Johan -----Original Message----- From: Peter Erickson [mailto:redlamb () redlamb net] Sent: den 10 december 2002 04:44 To: Snort Users (E-mail) Subject: Re: [Snort-users] Problem with Snort 1.9.0 and PostgreSQL I also ran into this problem when I setup snort last week. After looking at the create_pstgresql script that comes with Snort, I found the problem. When the script creates the sensor table, it defines one of the fields (last_cid) to be 'NOT NULL'. When snort runs for the first time, it tries to add a null value into this field which causes the program to exit. In order to fix it, I dropped the sensor table and recreated it by hand omitting the 'NOT NULL' keyword. I hope this helps. Good luck. The create statement I used was: CREATE TABLE sensor ( sid SERIAL, hostname TEXT, interface TEXT, filter TEXT, detail INT2, encoding INT2, last_cid INT8, PRIMARY KEY (sid)); On Mon, Dec 09, 2002 at 06:37:27PM -0600, m0use said:

Any database has it own permissions and they r different from file permission and it dose not mater even if u were root. U still need to grant the root a database permission.FYI recompiling from CVS fixed it. It used the same database no problem.
I'm
very curious what the problem was since no permissions on the database
were
changed. Since i'm not going to use postgres after all on this project it
was
really an excercise. But hey everyones gotta have a hobby. m0use ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Snort-users mailing list Snort-users () lists sourceforge net Go to this URL to change user options or unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/snort-users Snort-users list archive: http://www.geocrawler.com/redir-sf.php3?list=snort-users
