Re: http_inspect_server syntax error ?

[Y M <snort () outlook com>]

I think you still need to specify a "default" http_inspect policy (correct me if I am wrong), although I could not find 
a reference to support that in the documentation (again, correct me if I am wrong). For example, the below works:
preprocessor http_inspect_server: server default profile apache ports { 80 }preprocessor http_inspect_server: server 
1.2.3.4 profile apache ports { 80 }
