If you are trying to compile from a tarball, and you haven't moved
the files around, just delete the expanded directory that the tarball
made when you expanded it.
You can also descend into the directory before you delete it and type
'make uninstall' which will remove any files it may have moved into
the bin directories, etc.

Do you think I should start with a fresh system? Is there a way to
do a complete uninstall of the snort application? I do not want to
remove base and mysql, just clean up the snort install since I have
run it from two separate directories.
Thanks to all,

Yes on the checking and no on the âDENABLE_MYSQL.
Do I do a ./configure âwith-mysql âenable-dynamic-plugins, make
and then a make distclean?

yeah it just cleans it if you have already built snort. Do you see
the following when you run ./configure --with-mysql in the snort-
snortsam-2.6.1.5 directory?
checking for mysql... yes
checking for compress in -lz... yes
and
-DENABLE_MYSQL
when you run make?

I did recompile and still go the same message. I download the tarball
that Will sent out and then I did a ./configure, make and make
install.
I then noticed the error and did a ./configure --with-mysql
--enable-dynamicplugins, make and make install and still received the
same error.
Any ideas will be helpful.
Thanks

Looks like you need to compile with --with-mysql.
