Nevermind, I found the bug.  I'll get a fix out shortly...

Has anyone else noticed this?

In version 2.4.1, -T runs as before 2.4.0, but it now wants a "-K ascii" or a "-K none". "-K pcap" or no -K at all fails, regardless of the output line in snort.conf. For example...

"snort -Toc /etc/snort/snort.conf"
or...
"snort -K pcap -Tc /etc/snort/snort.conf"

fails with this

Rule application order: ->pass->activation->dynamic->alert->log->drop

However these finish normally.

"snort -K none -Tc /etc/snort/snort.conf"
or...
"snort -K ascii -Tc /etc/snort/snort.conf"

returns this


Snort sucessfully loaded all rules and checked all rule chains!
