Support #1667
closedCompilation under Cygwin - Windows 10
Added by Robert Trenaman over 8 years ago. Updated almost 8 years ago.
Description
Hello, I'm very new to Suricata. I'm using the PDF guide for windows to get Suricata up and running. Thus far i have been very careful to follow all the directions to a "T" in the PDF guide for windows. So far I have been successful with every step until I try and run the command "git clone git://phalanx.openinfosecfoundation.org/oisf.git" every time I run this command I get this error "-bash: git: command not found" I believe this may be happening because when I was configuring the packages for Cygwin some of the packages in the PDF guide are no longer available or could not be located.
Running Windows 10 64 bit

You need to install the git-core package (Cygwin install).

Hello and thank you, your responce got me past that part, but now when I try and run this command "dos2unix.exe libhtp/configure.ac && dos2unix.exe libhtp/htp.pc.in && dos2unix.exe libhtp/Makefile.am" I get the error "-bash: dos2unix.exe: command not found"

Same procedure as before - you need to install that package too. I think you should be able to skip that step (dos2unix) with the latest Cygwin.
Which PDF document are you following up?

Hello, I'm using this PDF https://redmine.openinfosecfoundation.org/attachments/download/757/SuricataWinInstallationGuide_v1.3.pdf from this page hear: https://redmine.openinfosecfoundation.org/projects/suricata/wiki/Suricata_Installation I will try and skip that and see if it works.

Ok - please keep us posted.
I am updating the windows guide this week.

Hello, I skipped that step, and then failed on the next. I received this output. I'm going to strip it all back down and start over to make sure it's not me causing the problem. During the package instillation for Cygwin there was probable only 50% to 70% of the packages available in that guide, the rest where not found or must be called something different now. I will record the missing packages during my next try and report them back hear.

Hello, Hear is what I have so far, could you please provide me with replacement packages I should use?

Also when I search "autoreconf" nothing comes up.
Updated by Robert Trenaman over 8 years ago
I restarted the whole install and configuration process over again, and still get the same results. I will have to wait until the PDF is updated to to continue. The information provided is just to outdated for me to processed, I just lake to much in knowledge to make it work. Please if you could update me hear when the PDF is updated, thank you.

I am currently working on updating the instructions.
However you can make sure you have those pkgs installed in Cygwin -
libmpfr, libmpfr4, libmpfr-devel, mpfr, mingw-pthreads, gcc-core ,make, automake, automake1.9, zlib, zlib-devel, zlib0, autoconf, autoconf2.5, libtool , libglib2.0-devel, libglib2.0_0 ,pkg-config,luajit, luaji-devel, libGeoIP-devel, libGeoIP1, libnss-devel, libnss3, libnspr-devel, libnspr4, git
Please let me know if this works for you.

- Subject changed from -bash: git: command not found to Compilation under Cygwin - Windows 10
I forgot to mention - please use 32 bit Cygwin installation (https://www.cygwin.com/setup-x86.exe).
Updated by Peter Manev over 8 years ago
Robert - this should be the full complete list of packages that you need to have installed in Cygwin for compilation of Suricata under Windows -
libmpfr, libmpfr4, libmpfr-devel, mpfr, mingw-pthreads, gcc-core ,make, automake, automake1.9, zlib, zlib-devel, zlib0, autoconf, autoconf2.5, libtool , libglib2.0-devel, libglib2.0_0 ,pkg-config, libyaml-devel, libyaml0_2, libpcre1, libpcre-devel, file-devel, gcc-g++, wget, luajit, luaji-devel, libGeoIP-devel, libGeoIP1, libnss-devel, libnss3, libnspr-devel, libnspr4, git
The list contains some extra packages for enabling additional features and functionality during the compilation phase - if wanted.

Hello, do you happen to know what the commands will be to compile the new packages?
Updated by Peter Manev over 8 years ago
After you make sure you have all the packages installed (as previously mentioned) the commands are:
1) wget http://www.openinfosecfoundation.org/download/suricata-3.0RC3.tar.gz 2) tar -zxf suricata-3.0RC3.tar.gz && cd suricata-3.0RC3 3) libtoolize -c && autoreconf -fv --install 4) ./configure --enable-luajit --enable-pie --enable-geoip --disable-gccmarch-native --with-libnss-libraries=/usr/lib --with-libnss-includes=/usr/include/nss/ --with-libnspr-libraries=/usr/lib --with-libnspr-includes=/usr/include/nspr 5) make clean && make
After completion you should end up with suricata.exe in src/.libs/suricata.exe

I have never seen that err before.
Can you try to reboot and execute the commands I mentioned before in the "Suricata-3.0RC3" directory.
Updated by Peter Manev over 8 years ago
I just uploaded an new and updated release of the Suricata Windows Installation guide here - https://redmine.openinfosecfoundation.org/attachments/download/1166/SuricataWinInstallationGuide_v1.4.2.pdf enabling additional features like Lua,MD5,GeoIP,PIE
Please feel free to feedback.

Hello, and thank you for your help. I should have taken a closer look at everything before I started trying to make this work on my windows 10 64 bit, because it turns out that at this time WinPcap v 4.1.3 is not compatible with Windows 10 as far as I can tell. I'm going to try and get in touch with WinPcap support and see what I can find out.
Updated by Peter Manev over 8 years ago
Thank you for the feedback.
Could you please update here after you get some more input?
I have not tried on Windows 10 - but it works fine on 2012R2/7/8.
I got 2016 in sight but it is a bit too early for that.
