Some basic troubleshooting tactics:

1) Run Snort in console mode
snort -A console -c /location/of/snort.conf -i ethX
(X is probably 0)

Generate some traffic - you don't say what rules you are actually running.

2) Run Snort to generate unified2 log

Check snort.conf has something similar to:

output unified2: filename snort.log, limit 128

Then run

snort -i ethX -c /location/of/snort.conf -l /var/log/snort -D

Snort should daemonize and if you generate traffic you should see
'snort.log.xxxxxx' appear in /var/log/snort

After that you're onto troubleshooting Barnyard2, seeing as that
will be feeding the database you're looking at with snortreport.
