[Snort-users] snort-mysql will not start

Subject: [Snort-users] snort-mysql will not start
Date: Sun, 22 Jan 2006 18:23:08 -0500
I am running Debian unstable and added the snort-mysql package.  This 
installed snort and mysql (5.0).  I've added EMS software's Mysql Manager 
(trial) to control access to the databases.

I added a database called snort to mysql and then configured snort to point to 
this database and configured the database structure via the supplied file.

I verified (via MySQL Manager) that the structure exists where it was not 
there before.

However, everytime I attmept to start snort I get the following error:
FATAL ERROR: Undefined variable name: (/etc/snort/snort.conf:508):  I checked 
the internet and can find not exact matches to this problem.

Anyone have any ideas? I am not a programmer but I looked at the snort.conf 
and assuming the 508 is a line number I can not determine where the problem 
is (short of counting out 508 lines individually on the screen).
