I have the same issue and still confused with its appearance. Previously we were running a 4yr old version of net-snmp. After recently upgrading to 5.6 I started getting this error message in /var/log/snmp.log. Was it suppressed before and now being reported? How do I go about tracking down and fixing the underlying problem?

NET-SNMP version 5.6 send_trap: v1 traps can't carry Counter64 varbinds send_trap: failed to convert v2->v1 template PDU ... snip ... That is because Counter64 was added in SNMP v2, and is therefore also supported in V2 traps. But since Counter64 did not exist in SNMP v1, it therefore cannot be encoded into V1 traps. ie. Counter64 is forwards compatible, but not backwards compatible.
