That sounds as if you already have a "snmptrapd" receiver running.
You'd need to shut this down before trying to start a new one.

Try
      "ps -ef | grep snmptrapd"

Then "kill {pid}" with the ID of that process.
Make sure that there's nothing reported by "ps" before starting
your new version.


While you're testing, you might find it useful to run

    snmptrapd -f -Le  -F "....."  -c /usr/bin/snmptrapd.conf

which will display any output directly on the terminal.

I'd also advise against putting configuration files such as
"snmptrapd.conf" in a binary directory.  Use something like
'/usr/local/share/snmp/snmptrapd.conf' or '/etc/snmptrapd.conf'
instead.
