Error executing ./configure

[Niels-Bored]

Expects

• Fedora Server 38
• Virtual Machine with VirtualBox

Details

After executing ./bootstrap I generated the file configure, but when I executed it I got an error on the line 5132.
When I checked the code I found an error sintax on line 5131, cause there was an empty '' and a ')' was missing on the first case.

After I fixed that I got another error on the 6031 line. It was an extra at the end of the code ')'.

After If fixed those errors it went all good.

Run into the same error, can you please post how you've fixed it?

I've tried to manually correct the code generated, but that didn't solve the issue since it didn't generate all the files needed to run snort, so I finally move to ubuntu server where it seemed to install just fine El jue, 18 ene 2024 a las 2:54, markbara-git ***@***.***>) escribió:

@JanicePolito Sorry for the year long reply, but I also ran into the same issue as Niel.

I also solved it manually by changing the following values at line 5132 from case $as_dir in #(( '' as_dir=./ ;; */) ;; *) as_dir=$as_dir/ ;; esac
to case $as_dir in '') as_dir=./ ;; */) ;; *) as_dir=$as_dir/ ;; esac

Next, for line 6031 I just followed Niel's solution and removed the offending (.

Hope this helps!
