I've successfully used the directions, in part, to get snort running with postgresql. In moving towards the base install I've discovered a curious problem that maybe someone can help with. After following directions up to the point where you have modified the base_conf.php and you're browsing to the http://localhost/base/base_main.php I get the following error. Warning: pg_connect(): Cannot create new link. Too many open links (0) in /usr/share/php/adodb/drivers/adodb-postgres64.inc.php on line 678 Error connecting to DB : [email protected] Check the DB connection variables in base_conf.php = $alert_dbname : MySQL database name where the alerts are stored = $alert_host : host where the database is stored = $alert_port : port where the database is stored = $alert_user : username into the database = $alert_password : password for the username Database ERRORatabase connection failed Clearly I've got this file modified correctly, I've double and triple checked it, but I realize I'm missing something. However it looks like it could be deeper than the base_conf.php file itself. I used default installs for all the required apps -- Thanks for your time, Herb
Got It Working It appears as if rambling to oneself is the most successful way of getting what you want. I upgraded to PHP5 and the problem I started this thread about mysteriously went away. Apparently "Anne" prefers PHP5 -- Cheers.. H
