Re: snort error config option "detection" ...

You've got a typo on every line!  (see below)

With those fixes I can run either lines 1 and 3 or lines 2 and 3 through
snort -T.

If that doesn't fix it, send your conf.

Is it possible that you have multiple detection statements?

grep detection snort.conf

Hi,
I'm running Snort 2.8.5 on Ubuntu linux and i'm getting this error when
i
start Snort (snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf):

"Detection: Search-Method = AC-BNFA-Q
ERROR: /etc/snort/snort.conf(273) Config option "detection" can only be
configured once."

I did not change anything near line 273, so i don't know why is this
happening. Can you help me?

Thank you,
Adam Szabo
