Description
Using Suricata dev 2.1dev (rev a4bce14).
If there is the following - purposefully wrong signature -
alert http $HOME_NET any -> $EXTERNAL_NET $HTTP_PORTS (msg:"Wrong Msg"; flow: to_server,establishedWrongHere; sid:11111111; rev:1;)
We get the following err:
[10603] 14/9/2015 -- 21:26:54 - (detect.c:412) <Info> (ProcessSigFiles) -- Loading rule file: /etc/suricata/rules/remove_me.rules [10603] 14/9/2015 -- 21:26:54 - (detect-flow.c:189) <Error> (DetectFlowParse) -- [ERRCODE: SC_ERR_PCRE_GET_SUBSTRING(4)] - pcre_copy_substring failed [10603] 14/9/2015 -- 21:26:54 - (detect.c:366) <Error> (DetectLoadSigFile) -- [ERRCODE: SC_ERR_INVALID_SIGNATURE(39)] - error parsing signature "alert http $HOME_NET any -> $EXTERNAL_NET $HTTP_PORTS (msg:"Wrong Msg"; flow: to_server,establishedWrongHere; sid:11111111; rev:1;)" from file /etc/suricata/rules/remove_me.rules at line 21 [10603] 14/9/2015 -- 21:26:54 - (detect.c:422) <Warning> (ProcessSigFiles) -- [ERRCODE: SC_ERR_NO_RULES(42)] - No rules loaded from /etc/suricata/rules/remove_me.rules [10603] 14/9/2015 -- 21:26:54 - (detect.c:513) <Warning> (SigLoadSignatures) -- [ERRCODE: SC_ERR_NO_RULES_LOADED(43)] - 1 rule files specified, but no rule was loaded at all!

There is a valid error but the error msg is not correct - pcre_copy_substring failed - as there is no pcre inside the rule.
