db schema

[Nerijus Krukauskas]

I see that SnortReport 2 is using db for its own data. It would be
nice if SnortReport tables could be put in a separate db. That way I
can use more than one tool for the same snort data set. Developers of
that other tool will also be asked for this feature. :)

Hello,

You are more than welcome to use the "table prefix" when doing the
installation to avoid potential name conflicts.

If you wish to do this manually, you will need to modify the file "./
app/config/database.php". You can find documentation for CakePHP
config files at http://book.cakephp.org

We followed the model that ACID and BASE took, by installing the
tables to the core db, to keep things contained.

Thanks,
Tom

This "table prefix" is used for snort tables not snortreport, right?
Or
did I misunderstood the snortreport setup page?

The table prefix applies to the Snort Report application. It will prefix all related tables created by Snort Report install and will add the instruction to the config for later CRUD operations.

I did enter the Prefix in setup page, but seems that snortpreport is
not using it. The tables in database are created w/o prefix.
Oh, and the file app/config/database.php you've mentioned before does
not exist.

Are you making it all the way through the install process? The database.php file is created directly after the step of entering your connection information. If the file is not there you most likely have a permissions problem.

What distro are you using? Did you follow the install guide?
