If it is working on debian then you might have installed net snmp package differently maybe that is why it is not working on centos.Are you sure your snmptrapd.conf is located in tmp directory /tmp/snmptrapd.conf.Try reducing you snmptrapd.conf options and first try to make it run then try to diagnose where is the problem .

I run snmp trap demon and I get answer like this]# snmptrapd -f -C -c /tmp/snmptrapd.conf -Le/tmp/snmptrapd.conf: No such file or directory/tmp/snmptrapd.conf: No such file or directory
Warning: no access control information configured.This receiver will *NOT* accept any incoming notifications.NET-SNMP version 5.3.2.2 .......
and after that this process take long time and I should stop it 

- but about I think I have problem in snmptrapd.conf because when I run snmptrap I don't have any error but I don't have anything in my log file I set my snmptrapd.conf like this :
logOption f /var/log/snmptraps.logauthCommunity log,execute,net  public

and in this path : /etc/sysconfig/snmpd.options   I set like this :

 OPTIONS="-Lsd -Lf /dev/null -p /var/run/snmpd.pid -a -x (MY IP)"
and also I turnd my IPtable off for test but I dont have anything in my log file after I run snmptrap .

I TEST my request in debian and I get true answer but in CentOS I didn't get any answer

Well if you are new to using net-snmp library you will come across such kind of problems. I think you are having problem setting up snmptrap daemon . If this is the case then 
1- First of all make sure your snmptrapd.conf configuration file is in (any) directory as pointed out by `net-snmp-config --snmpconfpath`
2- Secondly make sure you flush your iptables rule by sudo iptables -F so that snmp trap messages are not blocked by firewall.3- Try to run snmptrap daemon using  sudo /usr/local/sbin/snmptrapd -f -L o and generate a dummy snmptrap as given in net snmp tutorial and check does your daemon works or not. 

When you run snmptrap , you will get an error of some config file. Ignore that message if you follow the correct syntax then message would definitively be delivered to snmptrap daemon.
