Package: snort-mysql Version: 2.9.0.1-2 Severity: normal By default, snort.conf includes the line
preprocessor http_inspect: global iis_unicode_map unicode.map 1252 compress_depth 65535 decompress_depth 65535 When compress_depth (and probably also decompress_depth) are there, and then you try to start snort with /etc/init.d/snort start, it fails, and the following appears in /var/log/daemon.log: FATAL ERROR: /etc/snort/snort.conf(195) => Invalid keyword 'compress_depth' for 'global' configuration. A quick Google search result makes me think that snort-mysql is being built without the --enable-zlib option. https://forums.snort.org/forums/support/topics/invalid-keyword-compress_depth-for-global-configuration There is another line in snort.conf that must be removed before it will start without zlib support: inspect_gzip \ I hope this helps!
