[Oisf-users] Error compiling Suricata on CentOS7 with pfring 6.4.1.

[fatema bannatwala]

Hi All,

I am new to suricata, and am trying to compile it on a Linux machine
running CentOS7.3.
I have pfring installed already on the machine that works with other IDSs
just fine.

When I am trying to configure suricata I get following error:


$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/suricata/3.2.1
--sysconfdir=/usr/local/suricata/3.2.1/etc
--localstatedir=/usr/local/suricata/var --enable-pfring
--with-libpfring-includes=/usr/local/pfring/6.4.1/include
--with-libpfring-libraries=/usr/local/pfring/6.4.1/lib

   ERROR! --enable-pfring was passed but the library version is < 6, go get
it
   from http://www.ntop.org/products/pf_ring/

Not sure what I am missing here. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Fatema.
