Snort.lua Question

Not getting an answer to my previous question I've tried a different 
approach. I installed newer dependencies and then Snort3 3.1.64.0. This 
is what /usr/local/bin/snort -V gives me:

    ,,_     -*> Snort++ <*-

            Using libpcap version 1.9.1 (with TPACKET_V3)

            Using ZLIB version 1.2.11
            Using Hyperscan version 5.4.2 2023-06-21
            Using LZMA version 5.2.4

With this setup Snort almost runs. I toggle between two errors. If I 
invoke Snort3 with the following:

ips =
{
     -- use this to enable decoder and inspector alerts
     enable_builtin_rules = true,
     include = RULE_PATH .. "/pulledpork.rules",
     -- use include for rules files; be sure to set your path
     -- note that rules files can include other rules files
     -- (see also related path vars at the top of snort_defaults.lua)
     variables = default_variables
}

jim@jim-ThinkCentre-M82:~$ snort -c /usr/local/etc/snort/snort.lua -s 
65535 -k none -l /var/log/snort/ -Q -D -u snort -g snort --daq afpacket 
-i "enp1s0:enp3s0" -m 0x1b --plugin-path /usr/local/etc/so_rules/

I get 267 errors:
...
Finished file_id.rules_file:
Loading ../rules/pulledpork.rules:
ERROR: ../rules/pulledpork.rules:19 SO rule 34369 not loaded.
ERROR: ../rules/pulledpork.rules:20 SO rule 35347 not loaded.
ERROR: ../rules/pulledpork.rules:21 SO rule 35926 not loaded.
...

The "--plugin-path /usr/local/etc/so_rules/" isn't getting the so_rules 
to load.

===============================================

If I invoke snort3 with the following:

ips =
{
     -- use this to enable decoder and inspector alerts
     enable_builtin_rules = true,
     include = RULE_PATH .. "/pulledpork.rules",
     include = PLUGIN_RULE_PATH,
     -- use include for rules files; be sure to set your path
     -- note that rules files can include other rules files
     -- (see also related path vars at the top of snort_defaults.lua)
     variables = default_variables
}

jim@jim-ThinkCentre-M82:~$ snort -c /usr/local/etc/snort/snort.lua -s 
65535 -k none -l /var/log/snort/ -Q -D -u snort -g snort --daq afpacket 
-i "enp1s0:enp3s0" -m 0x1b

The so_rules load but I get the following error:

--------------------------------------------------
afpacket DAQ configured to inline.
initializing daemon mode
child process is 137323
Commencing packet processing
Couldn't construct a DAQ instance: create_instance: Could not open the 
PF_PACKET socket: Operation not permitted (-1)
--------------------------------------------------

Any help would be much appreciated.
