Hi all,

I am trying to install snort 3 on VM with centos 7.5 with this guide,
however I fail to run snort against an interface like shown in the
end.
Guide:
https://www.snort.org/documents/snort-3-on-centos-7

While initialising search engine, i get fatal error and snort quits. I
found nothing about this specific error.

Error:
