 You don’t need to manually create the schema or database.





If you start mysql then start snorby, snorby will create database and
schema for you.



Then start snort and banryard2.





If you want to start over after tuning stop everything, delete databases,
start snorby which will recreate db , start snort, barnyard.





Works well for me

I assume that's right but I'm not a snorby user.  Good luck!

Bill,



Thanks for the tip!  I think that did the trick.



I just tried using this create_mysql
<https://github.com/eldondev/Snort/blob/master/schemas/create_mysql> script
I found, which was the same one, after bumping into this post
<http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/user/rdanyliw/snort/snortdb/snortdb_install.html>
.



Now, the question is... To get Snorby running correctly, do I need to do
the following in this order?



1. Start the mysql service/daemon

2. Start snort

3. Start barnyard

4. Start snorby



Thanks again!

Hi Matt,

Did you apply the appropriate database schema found in the schema folder
in barnyard2's source?

CREATE DATABASE snort;

Only creates an empty database named snort, you then need to apply the db
application appropriate schema to the database to set up the table
structure.

Cheers,

Bill

  Hello,



Just ran into an error that I cannot seem to resolve and wondering if
anyone has any ideas.



*Ran*: /usr/local/bin/barnyard2 -c /usr/local/etc/barnyard2.conf -d
/private/var/log/snort -f snort.log



*ERROR: *[Select()]: Failed to execute  query [SELECT vseq FROM `schema`]
, will retry



Attempted to do the following...

mysql> GRANT SELECT ON snort.schema TO snorby@localhost;

ERROR 1146 (42S02): Table 'snort.schema' doesn't exist



Could this be an indication that my snort database was not setup correctly?

iirc the database was setup by running "CREATE DATABASE snort;"

Appreciate any ideas on this one.
