I had the same problem, and my problem was that nfsen was using an old version of nfcapd. The installation of nfdump dit not remove the old installation, and the old nfsen.conf was pointing it to the old executables. You do not mention anything about versions here, but you do know that nfsen 1.3 requires version 1.5.6 of nfdump?
