So it looks as if the agent is starting, then falling over.
You need to find out why.

Try looking in the log files, for any output from the snmpd agent.
Alternatively, start the agent manually, using the same options
as in the /etc/init.d/snmpd script, but adding the flags   "-f -Le"
That should display any errors on the terminal, where you can
see them.
