This says:
1. on line 3 of /var/www/html/snortcon/index.php there is a require() or
require_once() that is failing.
2. The required file is 'conf/config.php'
3. PHP will look for this file in the following areas:
a) .
b) /usr/share/pear

I think you need to adjust your include_path in php.ini to point to the
area where the conf directory that contains config.php is held.
