First time Snort user and running into two issues. After installation on a Windows 10 machine, I am able to initialize snort via an elevated command prompt: snort -A console. While snort it running however I noticed "Warning: No Preprocessors configured for policy 0." mixed into the console output.
A quick Stackoverflow search pointed me to run the following command to solve this, they said: This message indicates that no snort preprocessor is loaded. In order to get rid of this warning, please use the command: snort -v -c /etc/snort/snort.conf
But when I run this command I am greeted with another error:
Running in IDS mode --== Initializing Snort ==-- Initializing Output Plugins! Initializing Preprocessors! Initializing Plug-ins! Parsing Rules file "/etc/snort/snort.conf" ERROR: /etc/snort/snort.conf(0) Unable to open rules file "/etc/snort/snort.conf": No such file or directory. Fatal Error, Quitting..
This is where I get lost since that's where I have the config file (initally it was just /etc/snort.conf, but created a snort folder so the directory / file exists).
If anyone has any insight into this I would be more than grateful!

确保文件snort.conf具有必要的权限和所有权。目录/ etc / snort应包含＆＃34; chmod -R 5775＆＃34;等级许可。如果从源代码安装它，您将始终能够将snort.conf复制到/ etc / snort。
