Snort doesn't produce alerts----WARNING: normalizations disabled because DAQ can't replace packets.

Dear list,
 

I am having some issue with Snort 2.9.0.3 and Snort Report 1.3.1 (our live Snort box), Snort and Barnyard2 seem to 
start okay and then  Snort doesn’t show any alerts after I use the following:
 
sudo /usr/local/snort/bin/snort  -u snort -g snort -c /usr/local/snort/etc/snort.conf -i eth1 –A console
 
I am unable to figure it out the reason why Snort doesn’t sense and produce any alerts (I tested by using Nessus). 
Would you please give some direction?
 
Any information and help would be much appreciated.
 
Please see the following:
 
jwan@CarSnort1:~$ sudo /usr/local/bin/barnyard2 -c /usr/local/snort/etc/barnyard2.conf -G 
/usr/local/snort/etc/gen-msg.map -S /usr/local/snort/etc/sid-msg.map -d /var/log/snort -f snort.u2 -w 
/var/log/snort/barnyard2.waldo
