Snort Error: Active response: can't open ip

I am trying to run snort on windows as newbie. I have followed this link to start off. After completing all steps, when I try to test configuration file, it gives me above error. I am running cmd in Administrator mode. Is there anything else I am missing? Thanks.

I was making a simple mistake of not including interface in command. I had to use snort -i 1 c:\snort\etc\snort.conf -T while I was mistakenly executing snort c:\snort\etc\snort.conf -T.
