Re: Snort3 installation problem on Ubuntu 20.04 : CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND

Dear Dave,


You should try with a line of command who locate flex example with this line of command who locate luajit on my system for built snort with luajit :

'''sudo ./configure_cmake.sh --prefix=/usr/bin/  --with-luajit-libraries=~/snort_src/LuaJIT-2.0.5/  --with-luajit-includes=~/snort_src/LuaJIT-2.0.5/  --enable-tcmalloc'''

Finally launch this command line :

'locate flex'

Thus launch a build of snort where the two paths for flex are fill :

'''sudo ./configure_cmake.sh --prefix=/usr/bin/ --with-flex-libraries=/path/to/flex --with-flex-includes=/path/to/flex/ --enable-tcmalloc'''

I hope your success,

Thanks you in advance for your answer,

Regards.


Dorian Rosse.

Hello Dorian,

I now downloaded Snort 3.3.1.30.0 from snort.org, but the result was the
same with cmake:

./configure_cmake.sh --prefix=/usr/local --enable-tcmalloc

CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they
are set to NOTFOUND.
Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the
CMake files:
FLEX_INCLUDES (ADVANCED)
    used as include directory in directory
/root/snort-source-files/snort3-3.1.30.0/src
    used as include directory in directory
/root/snort-source-files/snort3-3.1.30.0/src
    used as include directory in directory
/root/snort-source-files/snort3-3.1.30.0/src
    used as include directory in directory
/root/snort-source-files/snort3-3.1.30.0/src
[SNIP]

With all best wishes,

Dave
