There are a couple of ways to go about this as far as I know. First, the reason your scan might be failing is because the plugin you are running relies on other plugins, and possibly the port scan for it to run. So you may have to check enable dependencies and allow these checks to run before you can execute your plugin. In the Nessus Network Auditing book there's a perl script that will list the dependencies the script you're looking at needs.
A second option is to run the plugin on the command line using the "nasl" utility.
If you send the name of the plugin you're trying to run I'm sure we could give you a more exact reason on why it's not working and possibly a solution.

Hello,
I'm trying to try only 1 plug-in, I don't want to do any port scan. So, I select the plug-in, deselect all port scanners. But I don't see the traffic corresponding to the plug-in, and nessus complains that it received an empty report.
