My guess is that snort tries to connect to mysql before mysql service
is fuly loaded and fails. Make sure that Snort is started after MySQL
is up and running.

Subject: [Snort-users] Newbie Question -- Problem with snort-mysql
install on debian
To: snort-users@lists.sourceforge.net
I have installed the Sarge install of Debian on my local linux box and
have narrowed down my earlier problem with two NICs. Now when I start
snort it ends and tells me to check /var/log/daemon.log. I see snort
starting and ending and this is what shows:
Snort: database: mysql_error: Can't connect to local MySQL server
through socket '/var/run/mysql/mysqld.sock' (111) SQL=UPDAATE senson
SET last_cid = - WHERE sid = 1
This is when I first boot up the machine. Once the machine is up and
running I can connect to mysql, through mysql âu snort âp and it works
fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
