can some one help in finding possible reason

Greetings Arun,
what you are seeing is a WARNING (now renamed INFO) message.
This message is generated by the output plugin, and tell you that it
received a event without a packet.

Whats this mean literally is that in the unified2 file its possible
that there is some event record that are not
associated with packet record, and they are not logged.

I would like to note that you would receive those warning in
continuous mode and also in
batch mode, this does not make any differences.

If you see this message alot then you might want to look at your
snort configuration file and see which unified2 output mode you have configured.


output alert_unified2: xxxxxx
OR
output log_unified2: xxxxxx
OR
output unified2: xxxxxxxx

barnyard2 currently work better/optimaly in 2-1.x with output unified2.
