Snort+SnortSam+MySQL+ACID+BASE installation

This document was writen for H-Sphere customers, but if you have Apache and MySQL installed and configured on your servers you can use our installation script.
It will install Snort and SnortSam packages (it is our custom packages), install and configure ACID and B.A.S.E and create MySQL database.
I know, it is not ideal configuration, but we just tried to made Snort+SnortSam plugin installation/update easier and faster.
I hope it will help to you become friends with Snort.
Sorry, for my ENGLISH ;)
Roj.

NOTES:
If you have MySQL root password put it in ~mysql/.my.cnf file during installation in the following format:
# cat ~mysql/.my.cnf
[client]
user=root
password=123456

I got this error when using your script to install:

-----------------------------------------------------

error: Failed dependencies:
libmysqlclient.so.12 is needed by snort-mysql-sam-2.3.3-1

Problem with libmysqlclient.so.12 was fixed in install script.
Now If the same problem arase during Snort start just create link:
---
# locate libmysqlclient.so
/usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.14.0.0
/usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so
/usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.14
# ln -s /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.14.0.0 /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.12
