Trying to ./configure.....

[RayAID]

I am trying to install the IDS component barnyard2 on RHEL 5.

I am following the snort enterprise insall document by Patrick Harper.

For installing barnyard, after the tar command it says to perform a ./configure --enable-mysql

The --enable-mysql does not work:
configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --enable-mysql

--with-mysql does work. Is there a difference?

Next, using --with-mysql, I get a failure at the end:

ERROR! Libpcap library/headers (libpcap.a (or .so)/pcap.h)
not found, go get it from Open Source and Linux Forums dot tcpdump dot org TCPDUMP/LIBPCAP public repository
or use the --with-libpcap-* options, if you have it installed
in unusual place. Also check if your libpcap depends on another
shared library that may be installed in an unusual place

I do a find / -name libpcap* and get:

/usr/share/doc/libpcap-0.9.4
/usr/lib/libpcap.so.0.9.4
/usr/lib/libpcap.so.0
/usr/lib/libpcap.so.0.9
/usr/lib64/libpcap.so.0.9.4
/usr/lib64/libpcap.so.0
/usr/lib64/libpcap.so.0.9

How do I tell the configure to use one of the above? I don't understand how to use the --with-libpcap-* option?

Thanks,

Ray

Hi,
i dont know nothing about barnyard2 but i think that problem in installation is that you have to install libcap-dev package. This file contains headers

ERROR! Libpcap library/headers (libpcap.a (or .so)/pcap.h)

.

I hope this can help you

dep of libpcap-devel is libpcap.

I get this:

[root@sguil01.root sguil]# rpm -ihv libpcap-0.9.4-15.el5.x86_64.rpm
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]

Arrrrggggg

file /usr/lib64/libpcap.so.0.9.4 from install of libpcap-0.9.4-15.el5.x86_64 conflicts with file from package libpcap-0.9.4-14.el5.x86_64

So libpcap is already installed. Now install the devel package - it's on the RHEL media:

/Server/libpcap-devel-0.9.4-14.el5.x86_64.rpm

[RayAID]

Ok, this time a little different error:

[root@sguil01.root barnyard2-1.8]# ./configure --with-mysql

After a ton of checking outputs, I get:


**********************************************
ERROR: unable to find mysql headers (mysql.h)

So I think, I'll try installing mysql-devel...that should fix it...but nooooo:

But openssl is installed:

[root@sguil01.root sguil]# rpm -aq | grep -i openssl
pyOpenSSL-0.6-1.p24.7.2.2
openssl-0.9.8e-12.el5
openssl-0.9.8e-12.el5
[root@sguil01.root sguil]#

Now what?

Thanks,

ERROR:

openssl-devel is needed by package mysql-devel...

You need openssl-devel too
You can install a package without his headers. Headers are used when you compile but are not needed to run a program.
configure file creates a makefile -> then you run make (this compile it) and finally make install that cp files into your system (like a win installer).

.Rpm or .deb packages contain already compiled programs and have information about where and how install application and also about dependencies that have to satisfy (automatically resolved by package manager).

When you install a program from sources, configure file search this dependencies and say you if there is some unmet dependencie.

Now trying to install dependencies for krb5-devel...

Is there an easier way to do this? There are a ton of deendencies...

Thanks,

Ray

Ray

So when I try to install openssl-devel, a dependency is krb5-devel!
Now when I try to install krb5-devel, another ton of dependencies pop up!

This seems endless and fruitless!!!

Is this natural? Why can't it be simpler???

Thanks,

A frustrated Ray.....

Hi,
try to search in Internet a rpm package...

Good luck!

Hi,

Good luck!

I've been doing this seems like all day for one installation!

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
package-cleanup --dupes
rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
The program package-cleanup is found in the yum-utils package.



Where are these dependencies located?
